Natural Born Skaters
Today’s been relatively calm. I’ve been busy but only doing things not worth mentioning.
I must have had about 30 or so emails from folks who commented on yesterday’s blog telling me that I should have crashed Burt’s party
Thinking about it now, I guess it would have made for a more interesting journal entry. Ah well…
We lost our hockey game last night…but only by a goal. All in all, it was a well-played game. I think the score was 5 to 4. It was our final game of this season and I ended up ranking #3 on our team. I’ll take #3 any day considering most of the guys on my team have been skating on the ice since they were sperm. I guess being from Michigan , It makes me a natural born ice skater? That, and Rapper LOL
Did I ever mention that my old band used to be managed by a guy who used to manage Kid Rock? Seriously…long before Kid Rock even considered being dumped by Pamela Anderson…we shared the same Manager. We never had a signed contract or anything but he just liked some of our songs we had recorded in the Detroit days and got our band a few little write-ups in a few Michigan papers…came to a few shows, booked us at some crazy loft-party (where I ended up being carried out in my underwear–the good ol’ days)…Etc.
The end result in all that was that Steve(the Manager guy) told me “dude, you need to lose your band“…of course I thought he was high at the time and then he went on to make Kid Rock a super star. Smart move on my part huh?
Steve and I have remained “old school acquaintances” and the last time I met up with him was back in 2001. I believe he now lives in Chicago. Anyway…Not sure why this came to mind, but it just did. I guess I just wanted to point out my keen sense of business skills LOL
By the way…He’s no longer Rock’s manager…I think it all ended in a law suit. Ah…ya gatta love the music business huh?
