Rian: last time I talked to Geekie was last night, and he was headed to SF. don't know how he's doing now...

I stand corrected. There's a huge delivery truck blocking my way. Perhaps it's time to open the emergency tin of sardines in my desk. (Sorry Fishie).

waiting...waiting..waiting....

Woo-hoo! GE's mom and I are going to RAWK! Now we need to see about getting Rian's mom on the playa.

The delivery truck is delivering our (late) papers, so I must grin and bear it. I will take a few of those beans.

It's winter here for sure. That blanket is looking good right about now.

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:25 am

Ummm... you and MY MOM are going to RAWK?? WTF about ME!?!?!

*grin*

SO, RJ...

how was your show????

Rian Jackson · Post by **Rian Jackson** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:37 am

pretty good. the first set i was a little tight, the second one rocked out.
it was a great group of musicians, and Jim Page is a lot of fun to gig with.

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:39 am

that's great! And how was your wrist?? i was thinking good wrist-healing thoughts on my bus home, at about 6.30

Yeah, I liked his "Stairway to Heaven" and "Whole Lotta' Love"...

Rian Jackson · Post by **Rian Jackson** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:46 am

it hurts. i've got it aced right now. it needs some rest and ice and heat and a good backrub, probably.

so i got to the gig last night and everything had been changed around. my one huge performance pet peeve is that i know what i'm preparing and what the basic conditions are before i arrive. the other musicians changed it all up. i was PISSED. but i ended up saying what the hell. i cur songs, rearranged the sets, and called it good. it turned out really well.

it was kick ass to see Lydia and CWL and some other burner folks there.

i would have liked a monitor... we were supposed to be unamplified and then we ended up miced without any type of feedback, so it's really hard to hear how it came across.

at the intermission, i was talking about how i couldn't find my diaphragm (practicing standing and then sitting for the show doesn't work well), how i left it at home. everyone around my thought i was speaking of something other than a big muscle....

looks like i may end up playing with anna rowland and brenna more in the future. they're gonna gig here on the west coast more. no time to rest, methinks.

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:54 am

rest schmest!

yay!! Play on!

Rian Jackson · Post by **Rian Jackson** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:57 am

yeah, except then i get so's i can't use my hands.
it's probably time to take it easy.. and demand backrubs to release the strain on my extremities.

heli? how bout that back rub and hot tub?

they're takling about SNOW here in the lowlands in the next 2 days. i hope i hope i hope i hope...

helitack · Post by **helitack** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 9:58 am

heli will do as is requested Rian.

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:01 am

yep... snow is on the way, so they say...

demand more backrubs. yes. a fine idea.

Take care of your body. It's a vital part of your instrument.

Also remember RtW's sad, sad posts about how he can't run away on a bike no more. Maybe you should find a phyiscal therapest who works with these issues NOW before you lose the chance to make music.

Fishy wishes she could make music.

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:05 am

I can give you the name of my naturopathy, Rian... she works on a sliding scale thingie... you could probably work out something... a weekly basis thing... pay when you can....

ah, fish, alas and fuck, it already has kept me from things. i just can't afford physical therapy in any amount that would heal the issues. heli's helping, though.

buckethead alien · Post by **buckethead alien** » Thu Jan 06, 2005 10:40 am

Hey Fishie: pickled herring. Sorry.

You were going to find out one way or another.

oh, wait, i knew about that, just never read it in print.

see fish, i did chiropractic 6 days a week for months almost exactly a year ago after a small household fall was the straw that fucked this camel's back. it was just getting better when my insurance - which is pretty good for this country - cut me off. i'm not entirely sure if i'm done paying bills from it yet. and i haven't had an appointment since april.

fish, it's either live with the problems and have some freedom to go do what i want to do in the world, or be completely tied to medical bills - which means being stuck in a job that isn't satisfying, too.

i need to get over my fear that, once again, the solutions won't work and actually get a regimen of some sort. as soon as they open the motherfucking gym i'm going back there (already signed up) because i think my back is better when it's stronger, and it seems that a better back means better wrists/elbows/etc. frankly, though, it's really hard to be devoted to a system when you gave up hope for it all at 17 years old. but i'm trying.

my day's pretty good! i've been super productive at work and at home (hence my sort of absence here...hmm) but really need a cuppa joe - haven't had one yet today, and am sort of trying not to smoke - only three yesterday and not one yet today. but i'm starting to bug....

can someone full me in on Kristines? I really can't take the time to read over 40 pages of bar thread...
