:o/
But that's what a hangover will do to you...
I just finished my annual Jazz Gig weekend and it actually went pretty good. The event we played at was a fundraiser for Lambton area people with disabilities and I was proud to be part of it really.
Big turnout and they made a lot of money...well done to all involved.
As part of the event there was a new craft beer pimping their product.
The Beer Co is called Bayside Brewery and they are located at Erieau here in Ontario. They are making two beers so far. A Lager and a Light Beer...
Both are fantastic!!!
Great discovery...they are opening a pub that way and they have suggested we get in touch with them about playing at the place.
I think that would be a hoot actually and I hope that Torrie follows through with the booking.
It was good to see Torrie again. He is living the life I thought I wanted for myself at one point. A full time musician in Toronto...sounds sexy and fun but the truth as usual has it not all it is cracked up to be and my heart goes out to him.
I have opted for stability with my life and as much as I bitch about my job it is almost impossible to get fired from and it affords me a pretty good lifestyle for my little brood....and I do play guitar still..
I hate that this show is right in the middle of the Steelhead run here in Ontario and I vowed that this would be my last year doing it..but already I am backpedaling on that...wait and see at least..
Well...I got in late from the gig Saturday night...hammered...and set my alarm for 04:30 so numbnuts and I could fish water that probably would be next to impossible...
Sigh... I was hurting...and still am..
The entire family is sick and after today my throat is getting a bit raw as well. I suppose it's my turn..Fall...pretty hard to avoid...
Can't understand it considering I take such good care of myself..LOL..
Anyway...the river gave up a few fish and I got to see the onset of addiction take hold.
Brians co worker hit the river with us with his brand new centrepin..and damned if he didn't get one...
Pretty cool moment...and I was glad I forced myself up this morning to be part of it.
Morin was a gentleman today and gave us both first water... and it bit him in the ass later on...and to his credit he took it well.
Fish and chips on the way home...
Goodness... all goodness...
Rockstar lifestyle will run you down! Nice fresh and healthy fish Gene.
ReplyDeleteLOL! I didn't mind the blank really...Weird! What is happening to me? The beers on Rob's deck afterwards more than made up for it. I'm still confused as to why we never turned a couple in the meat of that run...Seriously, I threw the full gammut at that water...they must of got the $hit kicked out of them on Saturday...LOL! Poor fishies.
ReplyDeleteGreat Day...thanks for lunch...we are fat ba$tards but it was worth it. That waitress creeps me out! I get uncontrollable shivers thinking about her...Is she human?
As I type this the rain is falling but I suspect it will not have much impact on the now trickling flows. :0/ I think the entire Great Lakes Basin is low and clear...
River level consistency...dare to dream of 2006...
Rockstar lifestyle...The music I play has never been popular...thank Christ...
ReplyDeleteThe Tercel passed the emissions test...Yahhooooo!!!!...the fish car lives to reach another river...knock on wood
I am watching the graph...wed is my stat so I have to work that baybe even if I am dead and they have to prop me up with a stick ...but if the river hits the bump Thursday is my bitch...
Good stuff there Norland, you are a hardcore MFer!!! I don't expect this rain will do much but I have 2 weeks off starting Thursday so I will be going at it hard somewhere/anywhere ... looking forward to drifting the 'toon thru that section you were fishing next Tuesday!!!
