I got rid of that Google search thing that was down on the bottom right. It was bothering me.
I've been putting some old funny cassette recordings into the computer. Some of it will make it up on ironlemon, but a lot of them are just too annoying. We'll see. I've got a full live Aquanaut Drinks Coffee concert that's actually sounds alright. I also have tapes of just Larry and me screwing around that sound like crap but are fairly entertaining. I know you want to hear those.(0) comments [+/-] show/hide the comments

two more Aquanaut Drinks Coffee songs
That's right - two more new songs are up on the Aquanaut Drinks Coffee music page. You should probably take the rest of the day off work so you can listen to them over and over again.

Once again two more ADC pop gems have graced the wasteland of the internet, spreading super love and sampled sounds. You can't find anything better on the planet my friends... except maybe a woolly mammoth skeleton... those are prety dope.
"Debra" is truly one of the most heart felt ADC songs to come along. Highly melodic and touching... and once again I am particularly proud of my drumming on this one. I sheepishly asked Larry if I could lay down some extra percussion... and his first unhesistating response was "Hell yes!!" What support! Hence the subtle and tasteful maracha and tamborines. I am telling you... if an exec from the WB comes knocking asking to use this one as the theme to one of its new hour long twenty-something dramedies I for one will not be surprised.
"Iceburg" continues the love fest with themes of warning, danger, and promise. I considered translating this one for our Germanic Bretheren... but folks, this one is TRULY un-translatable. Go listen to it now! every second you don't listen to this song is another wasted moment of your otherwise insignificant life.

Crack . . . opens a beer. Cheers, Pat! Good luck in Mass! No more getting drunk with Glen Campbell. Good times at the Monastery! Glug!
Ah.... fuck you Larry. One time I was cloistered in a monastary with a mexican call girl and a bottle of rum. I ended up macking on no pest strips when my vow of poverty took hold. When we re-record whiskey chicken am I gonna have to get special equipment? FUCK U_HAUL those bastards suck!!!
I'm sorry Larry I've entered the remorseful stage of hangover. That last entery was an angry Whiskey Dick. I'm never drinking again. Or at least until Tom and I make it to an oriental karyoke (sp?) bar in Amarillo Tx.
Whiskydick- black-budget, bass emiting, musical gear is being designed, manufactured, and modified to suit your extreme personality template, right now, underneath Nevada. You thought Nevada was all Elvis and strip tease! Whoa-no!
Deep beneath the sands of the southwest lie the tunnels of Duhn Cassoth. Within these tunnels dwell the Tiph, who serve the big note alone. One may trek beneath the carpeted greenery of humanity, but only expect to find three artifacts created by the Ji' Oyk; the bass, the bass head, and finally, the speaker on which the bass head shall rest upon. Ye shall then sally forth to claim that which is rightfully thine, that be electricity. Thy shall plug in, swig off thee stein, and raise ye arm skyward:
Shout, "ROCK around the CROCK!"

another new band site in the works
I just spoke with whiskeydick about putting together a page for the seminal early 90's band called Whiskey Chicken. Larry from Aquanaut Drinks Coffee, myself, Pat Toney and sometimes Pete Schmidt participated in this band, so it will be a worthy addition to the ironlemon family. The only recordings we have are on an old cassette. It will probably sound like crap, but that's all you get so you will have to live with it. It will be a blog like the Aquanaut Drinks Coffee page with the almighty whiskeydick presiding.

They said, "But king, where are you going?" And clutched at their loins and headdresses. But the king just turned to the mob, droped his trousers, looked heavenward and spoke, "Why, on King Diamondheads' Booze Cruise. Where else?!?"
To quote Dick Cheney, "Fuck off!"
Some of the Whiskey Chicken songs have been rewritten and will be released as ADC songs. Specifically the cut, Modern Like Us, which will be released soon on aquanautdrinkscoffee.com.
In the real world, Whiskey Chicken is a band that Ry, Pete, and Larry formed with Sir Pat Toney (just like Charles Barkley!). Yes, tapes do exist of this configuration, and we do detect that new recordings may be devised soon . . . NEW recordings, as in NEW Mission Of Burma; not old recordings. Ry, Pete, Pat, you up for it? By the way, *anyone*, how is the new Mission To Burma? Please post album reviews here at ironlemon.com.
Has anyone attended a Reubens Accomplice show in the past few months? Y'all need to get down to Houston, and your hair will get puffy. Anyone who HAS been to a Reubens Accomplice show recently- please give the show a review; plus any explicit details involving Ryan and robots!

sadly, i have to admit that this band, brief and shining as a neutron star that it was, had slipped my memory until i saw this posting. i mean, i remember sweaty after noons in P T's garage, but i had forgotten it had to do with a band per se instead of some other delicious deversion ... oh c'mon Captin Stabbin Hicks, don't pretend like you don't know what i am talking about..and Pat, who can forget you Sweating to the Oldies?? whiskey dick indeed...
anway, now that the memory of this garage (literal) rock ADC hybrid has smashed back into my brain like a fiersome blow from the masive turtle monstrosity that is Gamera, I have to admit I am tickled that there are recordings of this outing. fine times they were, boys, and certainly good, though higly grainy songs full of hiss and pop are soon to debut on various ryan realted websites. i say torrent the stuff- all of it. give the masses what they long for.
as per Larry's request:
New Mission of Burma- more awesome than an opossum.
Reuben's Live- even more awesome than that!
Ryan's Performance in Reuben's- delightfully understated with a hint of chestnut. he left the girls screaming for more.
Finally WTF LARRY!!! update your shit on ADC web for chrissakes!! you have the megaphone and the audience, now let your shit rip!!

WOW, blogger must have really liked that post to repeat it 3 times. sorry about that... it ceratinly wasn't worth repeating once let alone thrice.
Hawaii is the chain of isle lies. Last time I was in Honolulu was shortly before The Whiskychicken surfaced. I was with the talking head of all head, Anne Coulter. We were Tossing back Blue Hawaiians and Boiler Makers while dancing on the edge of the volcano when she came up with the wild idea of scoring Horse Tranquilizers at the Honolulu Hilton. What the fuck? horse traquilizers? right? "Sure," I said. A Blurry cab ride downtown fiddling with my tube steak was all it took. I wake up two weeks later in Bangkok with a marble glued to each of my finger tips and a thirsting desire to play bass in a surf/country/retro 80's double nickel on the dime kind of act. It is that kind of responsibility that makes me want to tell senators to 'Go fuck yourselves'
New Burma blows anything, out there right now, aways When we saw Mission of Burma, in L.A., Clint Conelly looked like he was gonna puke up a gallon of blood much like ryan look like when he is on stage with The Ballad of R. I move to MA on Tuesday. Anyone who is interested Meet up at the Monastary Sat. June 26 at 7pm to lay alms in my pockets and roses along my path.

news
I spent some time over at Secret Life of Painters headquarters last night in preparation for the 3 new upcoming band pages. John and Aaron have some good art we're trying to get scanned in, and there will be lots of new songs for you to enjoy. Be excited.
Larry's new song, Nuclear Bomb, has been getting a great response and rave reviews. Go listen to it again and post comments for Larry.
The Real Diffs Deluxe have been discussing playing a show sometime around Labor Day. I'll keep you posted on that. This is more important: the Real Diffs Deluxe CONTEST is coming close to starting. Information on that is coming soon.
Everyone hates my idea to make the "Every show I've ever played list". No one is into the fact that it's impossible, and everyone also thinks it just not that cool anyway. Because of this overwhelming negative response I've decided to implement the list immediately. I'll be done soon.
There's a new section on ironlemon: Other Important Websites. This is the page of links to other websites. So far I have one other website. Feel free to ask me to put something up there, but heed this warning: it needs to have something to do with me or bands I play with or something vaguely associated to either of those two things. This is the way of ironlemon, for right now at least.
Tell me if that Google thing on the left is annoying. I put it there to try to make a way to search ironlemon. It doesn't really work all that well, so I'll get rid of it if it sucks.

internet explorer problem
I don't know if this happens to anyone else, but if I look at ironlemon in the Internet Explorer browser it only loads part of the page. I didn't notice this for a long time because I don't use Internet Explorer, I use Mozilla, Mozilla Firefox to be specific.
If you want to use Internet Explorer, here's the trick: resize the window after the page loads. Any kind of size change will do, just the act of making the window a different size will make the rest of ironlemon magically appear on the screen.
If you don't know what I'm talking about don't worry about it. Move along.

here's another bad idea
I've decided to make a list. It will contain the date and location of every show I've ever played, along with the what band I was in and hopefully the other bands that were playing at the show. Yep - It's the Every Show I've Ever Played List.
This ridiculously ambitious project, if ever completed, will allow me to generate mountains of important statistical information. Ever wondered if I played more Monday shows than Tuesday shows? How about the number of shows on odd numbered dates vs. even numbered dates? If I acquired an elephant for each show I've played and then stacked the elephants on top each other, would they reach the moon?
All of these questions may soon be answered. There's only one problem: My memory is horrible. I don't even remember where I played on tour last week. So... I need your help!
If you happen to remember any dates and locations of any shows I have played at please send me the information. email@ironlemon.com
Remember, I need ALL of them. ALL SHOWS. Think of this also as an attempt to document all Pine Wyatt, Aquanaut Drinks Coffee, Real Diffs Deluxe and Red Shifter shows, as I believe I have played every show with each of these bands.

Your performance is poor, people. Get it together. Ryan and I once played a vaudville show to an audiance of two in his father's den over one hundred and twenty times during a span of six plus years. Where the puddin' you been? Hiding under a rock in Afgani-stan?
p.s. Whimsical keyboard meanderings and youthful triteness now cost an extra two pounds per centimeter.
Sorry! It's the damn govern'ment taxes I tell you! And you know all about the earthworm labour party's recent weekend push.
"Blow me." said the spermwhale. "Just blow me."

One time I stood outside Ryan's parents backyard and I could here a young Ryan, (he was about 4 years old) in the backyard, messing around with a Roland keyboard and superfuzz pedal. I thought: 'Smell's like Satan planted his petunas in a field east of a Mormon's temple.' To gage a reaction I threw my freshly drained bottle of cooking sherry against the backyard wall and waited. Young Ryan's father emerged, shovel in hand, and began to scream "YOU CRACKERHEADS...I'LL TEACH YOU TO SELL DRUGS ON MY STREET!!!" He chased me down the road banging the shovel on asphalt as he went. Crackerhead? I was nine years old.
duuude....Cal Expo, 9/25/91 - Jerry was ON, man! That was hot show. Dark Star break-out second-set opener. Last played 5.21.73!!!! Oh, your bands.....um, saw you one time at stinkweeds sitting indian-style playing a keyboard.

Ryan,
I might be able to help you in this noble and worthwile piece of musicology. I have *most* of the flyers that ADC ever made, which of course contain valuable date and location information, as well as interesting secondary information such as bands played with. With this info you may well be able to build a "6 degrees of Ryan Kennedy" database that could connect you to every influential, ground breaking, and sought after Arizona music maker in the last 15 years. Imagine the possibilities!! But of course this would require me going through all the flyers and posting the information for you. And of course I would have to manage to locate the key to the air tight, fire proof vault that I stored the flyers in... not to mention finding the map to the location where I buried the vault when I was wacked out on mescaline... then there are the badgers... In all a difficult task, but not impossible... Please advise.

Duuuuuuuuuude. Mudslides aside, what about the time Bam Bam played the Jimmy Eat World pad? Tre and Ryan were tearing it up on a gentle percussion setup in one of the bedrooms while the keg was flowing...such simpler times.

Does anyone have ANY info on Tre? No, not Tim Miginty . . .
We saw that video.

a laptop on stage?
I'm thinking about ditching my current "too large and unwieldy" keyboard for a small controller keyboard hooked to my laptop. This means I would have a laptop on stage. I would like some input from the ironlemon constituency. Here are my concerns:
1. Frequent breakage. Computers suck. They don't work. They break all the time. I don't want to have to reboot my keyboard during a show. I'm also terribly afraid of just dropping it or spilling beer on it.
2. I will look like a dork. I AM a dork, so I guess that's not that big of a deal, but messing around with a laptop on stage will push me to a new level.
3. No one will believe I'm actually playing, they will think everything is pre-recorded and sequenced into the computer. I am completely against this method of performance and it terrifies me to think that people might believe that I'M doing it.
That said, if I use my laptop I get the benefit of unlimited, awesome keyboard sounds that can be upgraded and changed whenever I want. I won't have to buy a rack or really expensive keyboard that will be outdated in a year. I have a feeling that I also might discover other fun things that I can do with the laptop as time goes on.

You should definitely use the keyboard in the act. You and I talked about doing this before stew was around. Maybe we should have used the keyboard...:)
...depends which band. Ballad of - no. Reubens - probably not. Einsturzende Neubauten cover band - yes.

do it. if you use good software on your new laptop you shouldn't have to worry about it crashing. people in music use macs for a reason though- that being the lag time is lower, the usb converters are apprently somehow better for audio work, and the os is more stable, although this was more of an issue in the days of winders 98. anyway, you should take the opportunity to explore what you can do with software synthesis and all this stuff since you have the new laptop now. that's what i say. also you should bring the laptop over to my new apartment when i move and play neverwinter nights with us. and we got a dungeonmaster for tabletop as well, and about 4 or 5 people drafted into playing. the degree to which you are excited about this prospect will probably indicate the degree to which you are or aren't a dork.
Although I own Neverwinter Nights, I was intimidated by the cover art and didn't install it for a while. I now have a level three thief. Do I suck at this game?
Build a robot of yourself to play the computer keyboard. And at the end of each song you could have some random live animal pop out of the chestplate of the robot, after cleverly hiding bats or owls or woodchucks in there- you know what I mean.

out of the frying pan and into the fire, literally
I am burning. My skin is on fire. Why do I live in this inferno?
I have left what seems now to have been the complete tranquility and peace of a three and a half week rock tour for the death heat and chaos of home. This morning I awoke to a pair of girls, 4 and 2 years of age, bouncing and jumping on top of me. My house is filled with boxes and clothing and people. I managed to clear enough of a path to try to get to my office, my cave of solitude, only to find it occupied by 1000 boxes, piles of clothing, a woman and a dog.
Fear not - I escaped quickly and made it to this coffee shop. I'm going to stay on tour think. I figure I can just continue to operate in tour mode without too much effort. I've got the van and my luggage is still packed. I'll just drive around town and stop at people's houses for showers and laundry.

Ryan, that's your funniest post yet. It's funny 'cause it's true. Stay on tour, bro, take control, stop the madness. You can crash on my porch for the small fee of 1/2 a deli tray and 3 lukewarm beers from the show. I don't know which show, but you're on tour so it should be possible. No pressed meat please.

important information
I just received this letter:
Sometimes, the Chinese people that live in my walls will sing mysterious songs
about cheese and rabbits. But mostly I mix concrete and mayonnaise for our lord
Jason Radar. He has an impeccable record, and lives in the town of
Breghulidzilkurdium, near Mesa. Cars are not mustard fish challenging rope
dialers, but really they are. So, in closing, I will be keeping and eye out for
an indefensible little desinger, and cursing the wedding machines.
Blue Hog Treachery, climate.
From the desk of the Count of Beldiggins
I hope everyone takes this to heart and realizes how important certain things are sometimes.

I do well in hotels
As soon as I entered this hotel room I had a burning desire to post to the ironlemon. Being in a hotel room in an unknown city by yourself is the leading cause of ironlemon posts.
I know everyone is dying to hear about: what happened at the show in Denver; the cool band we played a couple shows with called The Standard; the mind-numbing drive through Wyoming, northern Utah and Idaho; the shitty waterfall in Idaho and the cool one in Oregon; the show at Meow Meow in Portland where I got to talk to James the Aquanaut Drinks Coffee fan face to face; the nice people we stayed with after the Portland show (one of which is also an Aquanaut Drinks Coffee fan); tonight's show in Eugene - and why I'm in a hotel room by myself without the rest of the band. I'm not going to tell you about any of that though - I'm just going to give you my schedule from this evening through this time tomorrow:
8:30 - 9:30 pm - played a rock show in Eugene
11:30 pm - got dropped off at this motel
11:50 pm - that's right now, I'm typing
12:30 - smoke another cigarrete (this happens a lot)
4:15 am - wake up, hopefully
4:30 am - enter cab
4:45 am - arrive at airport
5:45 am - board really small plane - to Phoenix
8:15 am - arrive in Phoenix
8:30 ish - get home, make some work phone calls
9:30 am - watch Aila for a while
1:00 pm - take care of some BUSINESS

I know everyone is dying to hear about: what happened at the show in Denver; the cool band we played a couple shows with called The Standard; the mind-numbing drive through Wyoming, northern Utah and Idaho; the shitty waterfall in Idaho and the cool one in Oregon; the show at Meow Meow in Portland where I got to talk to James the Aquanaut Drinks Coffee fan face to face; the nice people we stayed with after the Portland show (one of which is also an Aquanaut Drinks Coffee fan); tonight's show in Eugene - and why I'm in a hotel room by myself without the rest of the band.

Hello - it was nice meeting you too, even if I was half asleep for it.

If you can think of a way that I can easily transfer all of that code from Live Journal to Blogger, I'd like to hear it.
