What a week, what a day. I got my bonus and a raise this week, and The Farleys are playing tonight with a bunch of our friend's bands. It's cold as hell here but we will make them sweat tonight. Support local music!

Painting sucks but I love the results. Turn up the tunes, have a brew or two and let paint splatter!

ETMC does not give bonuses though the company my wife works for do pretty often if you meet certain productivity standards and she always does.
My raise will probably amount to 0.12 / hr but like I told my supervisor during my annual review. " I don't care about the raise I'm here for the schedule and the people I work with"
Great to hear your playing and riding high Jimmy.
We confirmed our second "forward booking" this week. This one for February 17th.
I'm pleased and praying for a full schedule for the spring and summer season.

My last bonus last year was substantial and I upgraded my rig with a Marshall cabinet and some other goodies.
Then they fired me for incompetance. Go figure.
But I'm back in the saddle, working for a company who I've been wanting to join up with for several years - maniacs but very cool and very brilliant guys.
Meanwhile we plan to be playing out this year. (summer if I get my way)
It comes and it goes doesn't it? Enjoy the good days and have some decent smoke available for the bad ones...ANd don't quote me on that to the younger folk!
