Here’s poverty for you. Spending 4 days in Norway playing at the Nottoden Blues Festival. Magnus was so cool to lend out his house to the band. So I guess this is rock’n roll heaven. Heck he even got a rehearsal room. No keyboards or pump-organs here so I got to do a little filming. Note the Mommy-cat and the two little kittens in the middle.

This made my day. A clip from the Canadian show ‘the Ronnie Johns Half Hour’.

The coming week I’ll be on a strict diet of white wine and schnitzels, and possible no internet…  A few schnauzer tunes are being finalized as we type, but for the curious at heart you can go to www.theater-walhalla.nl to listen to a few tunes I did last month. (hit refresh since the opening is random, and there are 4 possibilities).

For the rest of you hit play on the movie below, and repeat that the coming week. (darn I really wish I wrote that one). I don’t know anything about that song. My french is also very bad, but I know Les Cornichons means : ‘the pickles’ which is a great theme to write a groovy tune to.

I told you a looooong time ago about the handless organist. But here we can see one in action. Billy Alexander has his own youtube channel. He was born with a defect on both his hands and feet. It took him many surgeries and 8 years of organ lessons to achieve this. Which is incredible to me. Had I been in his position I would’ve picked up the trombone. Respect!

I’ve convinced my wife that NOW is the time to buy this.

Stupidest band-picture ever. The one in the middle must be doing something really nasty with his hands, or he just fell asleep. You go ahead and make that up for yourself, I’ll hold….

Last Saturdays festivalpics are online (bospop) . It seems they posted them in order of importance.

You see, the rough photo lineup is: Steve Lukather, Crowded House, Snowy White… and the very last photo is…..Schnauzer!
