Might as well have a recap of the last few Missions. Last weekend was the "Big Piney Piss Off!". A 7 mile canoe trip down the Big Piney along with some camping amongst friends. It was quite an exciting weekend of water, beer, fire, and guns. Im still waiting for the pictures of the Giraffe we shot, repeatedly, until severed at the neck. Almost got crushed by a tree on a mission for wood. Of all the ways ive almost kicked da bucket, that was in the top three of least appealing ways to be found. Matt, Josh, and I lined up dead, under a tree with a cooler of Budwieser, classic. Oh ya, in case you didnt hear, Bert caught a fish!
Did the
Bonnarro. Great weekend, killer tunes, lotsa gin and beer. It was great to see
Panic, but the best part of the weekend is the bands you hardly get to see, or the ones you never heard of. Id only seen
Modest Mouse once, back in 2000, and it was a strange, but great show.
-insert flashback-
The
Rialto Theatre, Tucson, im on this mission with Secret Agent Destiny. Its a vintage theatre of 1920s glory thats long past its banner year. The band was cramed in the back corner of the stage, in the dark, while dude is in the opposite front corner, singing and playin guitar, with a spot light on him?!@ The crowd was a bunch of psudo mod squad, bowl cut, dark levi wearin, herion freaks from the UofA. They all just stood and swayed while my drunk ass wanted to bust heads as they ripped through "Doin the Cockroach".
-end flashback-
Theyve come along way since then, but still played the old shit, a great set.
My Morning Jacket was killer, they had a bunch of people in costume on stage, even a killer
giraffe, made me wanna be a
giraffe for Halloween. I always think, Man, i gotta get a camera, but why? You can get the best shots from the net. Then there was
The Mars Volta, wow, pretty cool. I missed
Galactic for it, and anyone who knows me, knows i live for a Galactic show, but it was well worth it. Sometimes ya gotta see something new... right.
