And now for the weekend update with Brian Bass. This weekend was jam packed. On Friday I went and jammed with Mr. Turkentines new band. I was able to jam a little, but soloing over a slow Cm#7 progression is a little hard(given time to figure out the scale I would've rocked). Anyways, then we went out to Greenville avenue and saw my ex-drummers band play. It was a pretty good cover band that played 80s music. They were a good band, but it was sad that the women there were the ones in my supposed league, they were old lookin and loved 80s music. I just can't accept that as my equal. It seems that those are the kind of single women I run into when I go to bars and see bands play. I can see me going after 25 year olds. That is more my style. I think I will stick with Sunday School. On Saturday I played Frisbee golf. I hadn't done that in 6 months. Back in college we all used to go to the local Frisbee golf park and play. It was free and it was relaxing. My arm is still sore from Saturday. Saturday night I went to a bachelor party for a guy from my Sunday School class. He is getting married on Tuesday. We were at Dave and Busters and played pool, had free barbecue buffet and pretty much just talked. Sunday I went to Church/Sunday School/Lunch/Watched the Cowboys win and then saw Sir Paul McCartney at American Airlines Center with Peetey, his wife, and his friend. Paul was fantastic. I had I paid $125 for a really good seat. The guy sitting next to me paid $300 for his on Ebay. I thought, hmm, I should've bought more tickets and sold them. I saw Paul McCartney 3 years ago and he was great. This show was on the same level. He played a lot of Beatles songs and his good solo stuff as well - like Live and Let Die and Band on the Run. Peetey and I were wearing our shirts we got at the last show and we got a couple of complements from some old ladys about how cool our shirts are. From my previous post I think that makes it not cool. Ok, Paul and Beatles music is really part of an older generation of people, however Peetey is the biggest Beatles fan I have ever seen. I remember in high school people would walk into his room and notice every square inch was covered in Beatles posters. "Sooo, you like the Beatles?" would be what people would say, sarcastically. He has Beatles toys, Beatle books, Beatles records, tapes and CDs and every new Beatle thing that come out. I started off as not liking the Beatles as I was more of a fan of rap. However hanging around him I came to be brainwashed by overexposure to the Beatles. I finally turned to the Beatleside in college when my roommate kept on trying to turn me to the Rushside. I finally had to admit I liked the Beatles as I battled the rush fans. Now I like them both. The fact that I was singing along to Paul's old 1950s tune, "Til There Was You." shows that I am still on the decline and will be in a nursing home in a couple of years.

Thought of the Day
"Oh, what's the point? When I like them, they don't like me, when they like me, I don't like them. Why can't I act with the ones I like the same way I do with the ones I don't like?"
"Well, you've only got another fifty years or so to go before it'll all be over..."
