Stand By Your Man


It went downhill from there.

You may believe that I can handle conflict. When I played in FL I kept a little tool on my amp called a 'cracker wacker.' When I lived in LA (at the Villa Elaine) I was the only white boy in my apartment building but you may believe I didn't sweat that either and sometimes the guys would help me with my gear. (they called me 'crazy white boy')

But here, in virtual land - it was quite frankly boring. I've been a bouncer and I know how to handle bullies. But these computer types grow great big electronic balls and talk sh*t all, yes ALL the time.

I wearied of it. Plus I couldn't reach them to teach respect.

You have a short fuse but I never minded that. It was the political bullshit that really wore on me. Nobody has changed anybody else's mind in years - so why sweat that crap? I'd rather argue about meaningful stuff - like the fact that my Firebird is frankly the best sounding guitar in this galactic quadrant!

What cracked it open for me was being called a 'coward' by one of the most annoying of the keyboard commandos. I have many flaws, many vices. Perhaps the only thing I'd never been accused of before was cowardice. Why on earth would I want to log in to be called names like that by blowhards?

take care man

What I say was not directed at anyone in particular, Mike.
And easy with the keyboard commando stuff, I am a keyboard commando now. lol (mayhaps a synth commando)

(And well until someone thrusts their guitar into my hands and I drive them like a ten-penny nail, that is.)
And yeah you know I don't dig the political rants of "nutterbutters".

90, I haven't played much of late since getting out of jail. Just informally and at private biker events, mostly.
(They like us because we're entertaining in a bad way... heh-heh-heh)
(And I notice no matter what I say or do, I don't get in trouble with the bikers...the music must soothe the savage beast(s)) lol At this rate, I could play for free and not be upset..not that I would, but I could. lol

Then again, not smart to be checking out the biker chicks until you know who is free and who is taken.
