Many players would show up in pretty rough shape from the night before or directly from the night before. The trainer would sit them under a hot shower while they drank a gallon jug of a concoction he made of fruit juice, vitamins and amphetamines. Then he would massage the players until the speed kicked in, then they were ready to play!

Still waiting for ad agency to send artwork for animation in the correct format. It amazes me that some people get work as creative professionals without knowing, like, basic stuff that is crucial to the job.

Hey hey, LesleyK! Didn't see you at the Chats, but that was a crowded show! We ran into Paul Bruno, Suzy Hotrod, and Mike from Brooklyn and ended up having a couple of beers with Paul and Mike after the show. Good time!
Sorry, too, to have missed you and all at Mama Tried yesterday. K8 said she saw you but didn't have a chance to get over to you before she had to leave.

Played there once. I was like "why do they store all this cold beer in the band's green room? Don't they know the bands will probably drink some of them?"
Then I figured it out.
(Clarke, apologies if you've heard that one.)

I spent the day there talking to a ton of people. They had a junkyard full of shiny black goats and a vitrine full of arrowheads.
They got my radiator replaced and I made it to Chattanooga just five hours late. This is my Yelp review of Culpepper's Automotive.
