i got your meat right here

while albertsons had said that they would call yesterday, the call came this afternoon. the store manager (i am sorry i have forgotten his name) was very nice and very apologetic (sp?) for the actions of mr. st. pierre. they are, supposedly, sending me a 20 dollar coupon. not enough to get me back as a customer but i do look forward to spending it when st. pierre and the woman who said i "threw the meat" are on duty. lol (i got your meat right here, baby)

got my highway shoes on and off tomorrow for the midwest; i will see some of you in ann arbor and indianapolis (crackers, downtown for those who are interested).

it is possible that the show in louisville in august may not happen; my friend, kenny moore, who plays acustic guitar and harmonica in the show is not in the best of shape physically and, to a degree, mentally, and says that he thinks that he is not going to make it. a good portion of it is that he says he just doesn't have the fire in his belly anymore. it just breaks my heart, i was so looking forward to this. scotty may, the other erstwhile member of the MERRY BLUESTERS and i are trying everything to get kenny to come. we could get someone else to work with us but it just wouldn't be the same without mr. moore. kenny and i first did BAD GIG BLUES in 84 and when we came off stage that night i told him that was the coolest thing ever and that one day we would do it on national television and in 93 we did. of course, in 97 we took our little song and dance routine to los angeles and did a six month run at the century city playhouse. we really need to do that show one more time!

kenny is best known for a film of him hitting a heckler over the head with a 12 string yamaha guitar way back in the 80's. kenny is a hero to all comics everywhere and rich miller bought the remains of the guitar from him for a nice sum. the heckler said, "i am going to kick your ass" and kenny said, "well, get on up here, motherfucker!" the guy then started to get up and kenny put him down. kenny was a lurp (long range recon patrol) in vietnam and takes no shit. it would be a shame and a loss for all if he doesn't perform again.

oh well, the juices aren't flowing tonight so i will see you on down the road.

Sometimes hecklers can turn a mediocre show great. Wileys, Dayton Ohio on a Thursday night at least 10 years ago. The headliner was having trouble with a table full of drunks. He finally abandoned his act and started in on them with great skill. This ended with him inviting the most annoying drunk girl up on stage to tell a joke. He then heckled her, she whined that it wasn't fair, staggered and fell off stage.

I don't know if I've ever laughed so hard, my throat was literally sore when I left.
