Tagged! Again
Ok so Crazy Mama D has tagged me again, this time with a list of sevens or 7's if you prefer. So....
7 Things I want To Do Before I Die
Play an arena show with FUGR. (Could happen)
Release a full album of original material by FUGR. (getting pretty close to this one)
Get and keep a good job. (more on this another time)
Learn to play the guitar while singing. (harder than it looks)
Lose about 100lbs. (maybe I should go back to TKD with Mama D)
Visit Finland. (Hanoi Rocks baby!)
Convince my parents to move back to Manitoba. (NB is too far away)
7 Things I Can't Do
Play guitar and sing at the same time. (See above)
Eat Pork. (I like it, it doesn't like me)
Read Chinese. (Billions can, I can't)
Fly. (Really. I can't. I've tried)
Quit smoking. (Really. I can't. I've tried)
Type. (There's a reason these things take so long to post)
Add in my head. (My wife can though. Think I'll keep her)
7 Things That Attracted Me To My Spouse
Red Hair. (It's a thing I have)
Sense of humour. (She can be mean but she's funny as hell)
The fact that she was with someone else when I met her. (I like a challenge. I won!)
Her taste in movies. (Not quite the same as mine, but that's cool)
Her conversational skills. (We talked ALL night on our first date)
She didn't like me just because I'm in a band. (Been there, done that. It sucks)
She's damn cute! (She really is. Ask anyone)
7 Things I Say Often
Dammit! (And a LOT of other curse words, but this is a family show)
Excellent. (Holdover from my youth. Gotta love them '80s!)
Rock and Roll! (It's a cliche, but I do it)
Thanks. (I usually mean it too)
Cool.(Doesn't everybody?)
Are you having a good time? (More cliched stage banter)
I'm sure I could. (My wife hates this one. She would much prefer a simple "yes")
7 Books I Love
The Ghoul - Michael Slade. (Anything by him actually but this is my favourite)
The Tommy Knockers - Stephen King. (Ditto)
Lords Of Chaos (Really good study of the Norwegian Black Metal Scene. They're crazy)
12 Days On The Road - The Sex Pistols In America ( A really good "What not to do" for musicians)
The Hitchhikers Guide To the Galaxy. ( The entire 5 part trilogy)
The Long Dark Tea Time Of The Soul. (More Douglas Adams wackiness)
Mankind - Have A Nice Day. (Mick Foley Rules!)
7 Movies I Could Watch Over and Over Again
Dawn Of The Dead. (The original version. Romero is a genius)
Friday the 13th. (The one that started it all)
Pink Floyd The Wall. (It's just too cool)
The Empire Strikes Back. (Easliy the best of the whole series)
This Is Spinal Tap. (I'm a musician. It's required by the union)
Time Bandits. (My all time favourite movie)
Monty Python and The Holy Grail. (Funniest movie ever)
Hard Core Logo. (I know that makes 8 but I couldn't narrow it down any more)
7 People I'm Going To Tag
Mama D is the only person I know who does this and she tagged me so....
There you have it. Back to the crazy band stories next time...Rock and Roll!!!!

Hey man, thanks for doing this. Though might I say that you shouldn't really critisize me for my love of 'Dirty Dancing' when you have Friday the 13th on your list. They are both good in their own right. I couldn't possiblily expect you to understand the Patrick Swayze thing. Plus the soundtrack rocks! Yes you should come with me back to TKD. Yes your wife is damn cute and I LOVE her sense of humour. If she wasn't so incredibly nice I'd be intimidated by her amazing wit. I'd kill to be so witty.
Rock and Rock, Dammit!
I found you randomly and liked what I read. I don't normally search random blogs, but my kids are at church for VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL and I actually have nothing better to do.
Anyway, your attitude and your writing are very cool. Keep it up.
