THE CHICKENGREASE WORLD TOUR ON THE FUNKY BUS
The anniversary of Christian R. Abrahamsons day of birth...
Saturday, December 17th 2005 8pm - 2am

I have a chance to reserve a party bus for my BIRTHday
It will cost each person about 20-30 bucks to ride. (ALMOST LESS THAN CABBING IT BACK AND FORTH FROM MPLS)

You can drink on the bus and we will be able to ride it for 6 hours.

It will drop you off and pick you up and let you ride it anywhere in that time frame.

It has a fridge, a cd player, a TV and VCR on it besides comfortable seating.

LET ME KNOW ASAP THROUGH HERE, EMAIL, A PHONE CALL, A TEXT MESSEGE, ETC ASAP...IF YOU DONT LET ME KNOW BY 2MORROW (WED) I WILL CALL YOU AND ASK.

If you don't want to go...you just ain't funky.

Why do you get all the love in the world?..

Not much to report lately except that it's been a hell of a week at work. Went to Nye's and Stazuis for Millers bday last saturday and had a decent time even though Nye's was a little crowded and spendy.

I looked into something kind of fonkey for the anniversary of my day of birth. Check here for an announcement hopefully soon. I promise this year I will stay the entire time if you come.

No plans as of yet for this weekend except for going to see that Johnny Cash movie with my moms on Saturday afternoon.

I am really digging the new Nine Inch Nails album recently. The transition in the middle of the first track sounds like Sunday morning and I like that.

Can't believe tonight is my friday allready. Time for another friday pixie run in the morning for a tilt and some blue ribbons!

First of all found this blog dedicated to all things 80's music. It's surprising how deep they get. Sh*t, I read a post about Donny Iris on there and I downloaded some Donny Iris mp3's from there today. "Ah! Leah!" is jamming on my mac right now! Jake, you might find this site interesting....

Second, I think if there was one rapper who actually really scares me, it would have to be Willie D. of the Geto Boys. I have thought this since about 7th or 8th grade when I first heard the Geto Boys on the bus to Jackson Junior High. My friend Joe Madden brought the tape of "We Can't Be Stopped" and Willie D. actually kind of scared me. Of course you had Scarface who sounds kind of pissed. Then you had Bushwick Bill who wore a Chuckie doll around his neck and got shot in the eye by his girlfriend because he didn't want to kill himself because he thought he wouldn't get into heaven. But for some reason, Willie D. scared me. I don't know if it was the way he kind of yells when he raps or if it was that he wore a black leather coat and a black leather fadora hat and always had a dark blank expression on his face like nothing could break him and he'd destroy you because living in 5th Ward Houston he had nothing to lose. I remember I had a Willie D. solo tape single called "F*ck Rodney King" back in those days. In the song he talks about how he wanted to shoot Rodney King because he was tired of seeing him on T.V. talking everyday. What brought this post up was I was listening to a St. Ides commercial with The Geto Boys and Ice Cube and he literally sounds believeably pissed when he rhymes.

Me thinks i'm going to buy one of those Sony Bean Mp3 players tommorow. Even though I am a huge mac fan, i've heard too many horror stories of Ipods, plus this ones cheaper than the shuffle and holds more songs.

See you all someday.

I know who you been sockin' it too...

Pretty fun weekend this past weekend. Came to the conclusion that the nickname of moonman should probably be passed on to a certain roomate of mine. Finally made it to the Shouthouse downtown. Actually a very fun place. They played "Purple Rain" and "7" on the piano! Since I can't really think of anything at the moment, I thought I'd just post about my recent selection of records that I have been constantly spinning...

Ohmega Watts "The Find"...Great new hip hop album with beats reminiscent to pete rock and Tribe.

Ryan Adams "Jacksonville City Nights"/"Cold Roses"....I don't know what it is, but somehow I became a huge Ryan Adams fan. "Cold Roses" is probably my favorite Adams release at the moment, but "Jacksonville City Nights" is cool for just laying back and hanging out.

D'angelo "Voodoo"....I pulled this off the shelf recently because I wanted to hear "Devils Pie" after reading the article on Dj Premier at The Low End Theory blog. "the root" is on constant rotation in my car at the moment.

Gangstarr "Daily Operation".....I almost wish I had a copy of this album with just the instrumentals. I think dj premier makes some of the dirtiest, raw beats in the game. Listening to the intro and then "The place where we dwell" gets me amped. I also love the scratches on "B.Y.S."

Big Daddy Kane......I've been on a total Kane kick lately. On Friday before a bunch of us went out, there was about 10 people hanging out at the house and I threw on "I get the job done" and "Warm it up Kane". It got everybody to move something! Of course "Set It Off" and "Ain't No Half Steppin" get played constantly too.

Welcome 2 The Dawn Motherfuc*ers........

It's time for new direction..It's time for jazz to die....4th Day of November...We Need A Purple High............
