The Rev. Spyros' Snake Oil Emporium

Girl To Girilla Hit Beef-Stock 09

 

Some friends of ours (you know who you are) invited the Rev and the Girl To Gorilla Crew to play a great event near Woodstock called Beef -Stock - it was awesome and some cat even reviewed the whole show!

"... Girl to Gorilla. With their two guitars, violin and rhythm section, they added a roaring, anthemic Irish edge to their janglerock, the violin in particular a plus, bringing an unexpectedly eerie edge to the upbeat catchiness of the songs. A darkly backbeat-driven number possibly titled Start All Over Again was an early highlight...."

That song would be called "Next Weekend" and that would be a Viola - not a violin - don't make that mistake around Amalia our one girl string section.  Nice analogy though! Thanks to all especially the Black Death boys!

The Rev. Dorkboy

Here it is folks - Here are the top 10. most awesome action figures (no they aren't dolls!  they are highly collectible pieces of pop art!!!...in doll form...) that I've seen in a minute.

10. It's the Duuuude and Walter! - OK I know I ragged on Lebowskifest in a previous post but come on these are pretty cool!

9. Sampson vs. Goliath! - Yes that's right now we mix our Old Testament heroes and  villains like Luchadores y Rudos in a  Battle Royal!!

8. Old School Porn Star Action Figures - Porn Stars from that golden period of big hair, big bling,  hooker make up, 80's electronic sound tracks, and less than perfect boob jobs!

 

Who luvs Shane more than we...

Today did not start well.
The Rev. had to self - arbitrate a volatile situation between a co-worker and himself.
The Rev also got the news that his blood pressure since his last checkup (which was high) has actually gone UP.  Meds are due.  Bummer.
So finally  - de Rev's wiminks and Ze Revz didz go to a showzen tonightzen.

The Pogues.

Last night they canceled on us but we came back to the Burg and hung at Supreme Trading (a great place with a great Irish bartender and a space where you can smoke legally while bending an elbow - outside in their  courtyard HOOWAA!) and re-booked our tickets for tonight while having a pint or 6.

Pre -  PS Fuck Ticketmaster customer service - they are up there with the DMV regarding giving a shit about you and owe us 30 cell phone minutes worth of hold time!!!!

So about tonight:
