Now there's some action! There's an actual live show!

Andy's playing at a place called Roby's. It's somewhere around Damen and Division. He's playing there on Tuesday night, June 29th. That's soon! He's playing a "solo acoustic" show - just like the guys on MTV, and they're big rock stars! Just like Andy!

This will be a great show. Chris Fuller, another local legend, will be playing on his guitar and humming to himself also, and then there's "a girl who's name I don't remember" opening the show. It'll be fun! You should go! If I were in Chicago I'd certainly go.

Beyond that, there's no new action. Barring any unforeseen circumstances (which wouldn't surprise me a bit) I'll soon be posting dates for our trip to Canada in August.

Have you notices the Cult fans writing rebuttals to Tim on the message board?

Now someone's selling Crust Brothers CDs on ebay! They can't be stopped! These immoral sons of bitches are taking over the world, convincing these naive kids that $30 or more is nothing to spend for a CD that's easier to buy than a goddamned ice cream cone!

It's crazy, everyone's crazy. I'm especially crazy.

Silkworm has fallen victim to bootleggin'! Dig it! Now we're real big time.

Lots of classy rock journalists have been saying nice things about the Crust Brothers CD. This leads me to believe that everyone will buy it and we will have to print some more. In fact, someone in Spin asked readers to beg the Washington Wilderness Coalition to bring it back into print, but of course, it never left print, and the WWC has nothing to do with it. Those Spin people are ding-dongs! They really are! They said some other dopey stuff, I forget what it was. Other people have been saying dopey stuff lately. Someone got all hard about Steven's great singing on Heard It Through the Grapevine, I mean, he was just so hard about it, but it wasn't Steven singing at all! It was Tim! That's the pits, man!

So don't read what everyone says, except when they say the Crust Bros. thing is great, and then tell everyone and then go out and buy it. Oh, we've got some new singles out. I'll write about 'em as soon as I get my shit together.

Ooh, I was out late last night. I didn't get terribly out of hand but you know any late night gets to me these days. I got a promotion at work, and as any lawyer or law student will tell you, added stress = added booze. There's no cure for on-the-job stress like getting, as they say, tight.

I don't have much to say, but I did want to mention that we've got some big action coming up in August. Or did I already mention that? I think we'll be spending some time in Canada and I think we'll do some recording, we'll record all these new songs that I mentioned the other day. That will be fun, huh? It will be my vacation, a working vacation. A working vacation in Canada! RIGHT ON MAN!!

More substantial news later.

Okay, I'm taking Tim Cook's advice. I'm just gonna let this page pile up and pile up, and if you want to see the latest news, you can look at the top, and if you want to see old news, you can look at the bottom. I'm busy as hell and I've been neglecting this site and I've got to make it easier not to neglect it so I'll just let this page pile up. I'll date the entries, how's that?
