We Were Wolves,Full Moon and Bruised Knees.

There is NOTHING wrong with the entertainment here in the Beaumont area. PERIOD!!!

Now that that is off of my chest I must say that the night life has not treated me badly by any means. I went out four times last week. Saturday went to  RE Create to catch the The Fire Museum of Texas, The Exploding Boy Toys, Hello Chief and the fashion show, then on the after party at The Orleans Pub and Daiquiri Bayou

Monday I got out to see Plus One, Hello Chief and Ringo Death Star at the Victoria House. I loved the idea of sitting on the lawn in my chair and cooler listening to great music with good people.


Vitctoria house

Ah Thursday, Merchant Soiree At The Orleans pub. I got to see the famous photo booth provided by The KVN and check out Vargas Rockwell photography that Kevin is doing as well ! There were a ton of great wares and art to be seen and bought plus some local entertainment provided by Coal Train. The starving artists rum punch was so delicious that I had a double. Mhm...

For Saturday I went to cheer on my old team mates on Spindletop Rollergirls as they took on Las Tejanas where Spindletop was beat 100 to 164.


On to Tequila Rok & Blue Iguana Patio for The Nice Guys, The Ramblin Boys, Plus One, DJ Electrosuarus, AND The We Were Wolves . EP release party for Lost at Sea, which is so spanking good I can not play it enough. I never rocked so hard in a such a long time, it's not being in the pit until you get bruised knees, and scrapes. I will say I was glad that I brought my ear plugs, they bring it heavy and loud. We Were Wolves kicks off thier tour on Wednesday in Houston at the Mink for other tour dates check this link:


My knees!


 Alas I curse you insomnia for I am not a day walker at your ever loving mercy. Piss off. Today was the beginning of not waking up at 4 PM. This new shift that Mike is on has not helped my infrequent sleep patterns.You would think with all that action that I would be tired.

It's All Going to Happen to You.

That's what I've heard, what is not said is that you need to be prepared for it.Yellow skies are not as easy to see as black rolling thunder clouds, but sometimes under that odd hue of hazy yellow lurks a funnel. Not that you are going to be hit by a tornado, except life is filled with a bevy of unexpected surprises, some good, some not so much. The question that you need to ask yourself is; do you have the tools handy for when it is time to pick up the pieces and get your life back on track? Packing it in early is never the best option unless you are moving on after failing or succeeding. That's cheating yourself out of the realization of your own accomplishments or shortcomings. No matter what, the part of any problem or solution in life is you. So you may want to think twice about a geographical relocation before you try to run away from yourself. Take my sage advice I am not using it. I just got tired of running.

I have ran across the united states a few times, only to stand still. I traded in my running shoes for skates for a hot second, now I just wear flip flops and take it easy. There may be some bike riding in my future.  I am still young enough to not know everything.
