Last night I got to witness the band that put the song "Mitchell sucks at fishing" on the map, The Leechbombs. I might have to classify them as the hardest working band in America as they were going at it from about three in the afternoon until past my bedtime. Work hard they did in trying to create actual, entire, full length songs. They did accomplish that a few times, however, I mostly recall more of a collage of music. More music for your dollar I guess. You could be hearing "What I like about you" and it would drift into "La Bamba," over to the "Whipping Post," into "Sweet Home Alabama," and finishing up with one of Tom's guitar solos, all in about 20 seconds. Amazing mix of styles there for the bombs. If they can all get on one page and one style, let's get the Oxbow Lake Roadhouse back together and let this band unleash the fury.
Keep on rocking Leechbombs.

A merry time is was last night at the twenty-something annual CMU Christmas party. The Diskin's were the hosts this year at their country home in Dexter. A sweet setting they have. Kudos to Mary for the Christmas spirit throughout the house; that is a whole lot of Santas (sorry Brian, I know she did it all). The usual cast of characters were in attendance and a great cast they are. I managed to get first spill of the night within the first hour. Thank you. The gift exchange had a minor hiccup this year as Mike got left with his own gift. All was not lost though as others did a little trading and everybody was happy. Being happy; that is what it's all about.
