Post-Holiday Wrap-up

Well I was very pleased that the Brothers Green practiced this weekend in anticipation of
the Wakarusa Music Festival. Their show is coming up in 10 days from today, so
it was about time they got together and practiced.
Adam Maese has announced that he will also be attending the Festival. Bravo,
Adam, for making a real mature decision.
Devin Kelly was in town this weekend. We got together on Saturday night
and raged Westport (Kelly's and Buzzard Beach). Later, we took a cab (how
responsible) to Meg's house on Gennesse and raged some more. Hussey
and I ended up wrestling after some rum shots (this seems to be a reoccuring
trend when the twos of us get drunk together). I might have gotten the best
of him this round (as opposed to at Lewis and Clark State Park when my
face was bloodied) as I tore his shorts. Completely unintentional, Jason,
and I apologize. Meg was pissed about the rough-housing and took her
angst out not on us but George Clarke and Devin, two innocent bystanders
whose only connection to the fight was that they came with me. She told them
off and demanded that Devin help paint her house the next day; needless
to say, he didn't agree to such terms, which only further enraged our hostess.
I took the violence back to our house as Devin and I quarelled over control
of Jambase Rhapsody, which Devin admits has been the cause of past violence
in houses equipped with the service.
The hangover was zippy for the first half of the day. Katy complained that I
talked incessantly which can be the case, although the hangover takes an
entirely different course after the alcohol has fully worn off. The meal at
McCoy's was so-so, then we went to Sterling's to visit the young Devin Sterling
Levon Brown. The meeting of the two Devins was an overwhelming success.
The Brothers Green were spray-painting CD covers in the backyard while Sterling
passed my wedding gift to him, a bottle of scotch aged 10 years that unfortunately
spent a very hot weekend in the trunk of his car. The sip I took nearly drove me
to vomit, and being downwind from the spray painting did not assist me in my
fragile state. Devin has hinted he may move back to KC; he misses our BBQ,
lower cost of living and poorly run major league sports teams no doubt--although
the jury is still out on the Chiefs. Can they sign Ty Law? As of this post, it doesn't
seem likely.
