Fucking Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No ---I have the keys -(for the beer machine) I owe Fred $28,000

I rember just about everything -- but the BK treck less then I should.

I do remember a trek skiing w/ you, Joe Bannon and Sara Green -- To this day that's the best time I've ever fucking had.

You're the dude that opened up your arms to me & brought me into Giant.

I'm not kidding when I say that that's one of the nicest things anyone's ever done for me..

Thanks man --miss you dude

classic --

Remember the old ones -- ( the first version)

Coolllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!---got anymore???

I'll never forget out near the desk, Adam Youch goes to to pet her(him) less than a week after the incident- runs his hands from bitch's head to tail like anyone would pet a cat -- his hand shot up real fast when he got the last part of the tail-- I'll never forget the look on his face.

a portion of the cat's tail was sheered off in a door but there was this dryed out bone that remained.

Bitch (or Ed or allice that we attempted to call her) was still a stray at that point

She lived in the basement for some time under "Henry rule"

When she first came up she hid in a pile of construction shit on the east side of the loft for about a month & a half

The first time that I saw her acting social was seeing her hanging directly outside of studio N while "The False Prophets" were playing with their door wide open.

After that she finnaly came out front.

She (he) became a great pet & friend to us all

She died at my studio on 27th st.

We all did what we could but Alex & co footed a big vets bill from an absessed tooth -the meds closed in.

From my research -- that cat lived more than 20 years.

Not bad & not really that much younger than ANY of us at the time

I think I remember "The Fez Sessions" --

I have tapes that are all boxed up, some mislabled & all need to be baked before they get transfered to somekind of useable formatt. It's going to be a tough project -paul has the 8 track machine & we plan on getting it into working order at some point. I'll Let you know If I have anyting when I get into pawing through the stacks. Sooner than later I hope.

Do you still have any of that SOF bat cave stuff to dub off?? I'd love to get my hands on a coppy of that!

Not sure---did you ever hear BFL "Hell House"?--has some of those great tunes from that era.

I could swear that you were the guy that pointrd out the irony with the car crashed into a storefront wit "Learn To Drive" emblazened above.

anybody got a coppy of that???

I'm sure he's surrounded by redbook mags & lunachik albums--who knows what else he's into now.

Dude....Oh man..............I guess He always was a colorful guy

I was kind of thinking for Eric would have come along to give the keynote address on Dino but I think you dida great job here summing it up Pete

Dose anyone remember "the helmet years" -- That Chicken John guy told about a time that they were at a party somewhere when they were backing GG Allin. Dino flipped a chair over & started sticking one of it's legs in his ass-- To that he said "Dino, how many times have I gotta tell you not to fuck with the furniture"

PISTOL WHIPPED evolved into "Everets Body" I recorded them --Oh man..Slone & that red head--

lets not forget the Lunachicks

I remember that night a CB's what a fucking night!!

I remember Ted & I sort of passing out on that brick stuff on that little island across from st. vincents hosp.

I want to do that again sometime

Was Chicken John the main dude from Letch Patrol???

So my first night was going smooth until this kid comes out of studio C and asks for help with the PA-- So I go in & this Metal crack head kid is standing on the Smiley Bros piano-- I take a look at the pa (one of those solid state Yamahas with the knobs on top.It didn't look quite right .. there was a knocked over mike stand near by & I pieced together that the kid let loose on the board with the mike stand bottom -- but what the fuck did I know -- was the board like that before ?? there was a lot of beat up gear at giant. The interns were all down the hall in Jimmy D's rehearsing Paul & Michael dealt with it somehow-- I think the band was called Nevermore-- and after that they NEVER rehearsed at Giant any MORE.

It's Amassing that I have I have any memory at al.....l considering my close affiliation with the beer machine. That's a whole new topic -- imagine that in '06

I know it's not funny, & then again --  one night a guy & his girlfried ran their white tr-7 into the car rental place across the street -- the guy was reeling in agony on the sidewalk while his girlfriend stood there with her arms crossed chewing gum.. Above them in huge letters "Learn To Drive -Rent A CAR"--  I think I was recording Pete that night --anyone remember?
