Get drunk, Chico! Get drunk before you go on-air!! I want to hear rampant drunkeness surrounding the tunes. You owe it to yourself to get drunk. Drink wine, beer, radiator fluid, it's good for you! Especially when you're middle-aged, like us. Drunkeness... :crazy:

Thanks for all the well wishes, and the link to the babes. Hey, what's up with that?

Werf, are you buyin'? You all are welcome to join Blue Lake tonight (log on before 10 p.m. to avoid the "block") for the music of Duke Jordan.

I'll never forget the Saturday morning in 1983 when I was on the radio playing Air after having played some Leo Smith when this head appears in the glass cutout of the studio door, and this young girl is looking through the glass wall from the next door studio. I'm like, huh? "Hello, I'm Chuck Nessa, and this is my daughter Carla." It was just so strange that the Steeplechase rep. from Chicago, who had one of the hippest independant labels ever, was standing in our building in the Manistee National Forest....

Actually one of the first things Nessa hipped me to, before we both moved to Whitehall, was the Buck Clayton All Stars with Jimmy Rushing on Steeplechase. In 1979 I had no idea who Dickie Wells was. I still have that double album promo copy he sent when I was doing student radio at Michigan State.

And you're right Nessa, I'll be 46 on April 30th so that was exactly half my age ago.

Holy shit!

46, eh? That's still pretty young... yeah, I'll buy, shit yeah; of course, I should point out to others that Lazaro doesn't really get drunk. He's too classy for that, for real; he gets buzzed though, on good wine and beer.

I've seen him. But I'll do the honors of getting drunk on his behalf tonight... :crazy:
