Jung,
That’s a cool and very interesting video and could that question mark be somehow tied to our Twins or Janitor Joe through some means that we don’t understand? Could it be a sign from someone we all admire that had a vision of peace and brotherhood and whose spirit now lives in the heavens? A person that greatly inspired Mona and Lisa who are the artists that produced the incredible visionary masterpiece called WHY?. I was reminded by MLT Club member Rick Twomey that there was a sign that was held by fans in New York City after John Lennon was killed, one word and one symbol. Was it an inspiration for the song or album or was it just, yet another coincidence? This was the sign and now it makes me more curious.

An old work friend of mine is spending Christmas in Singapore, she posted some beautiful pictures. I thought I would share them.

This is a picture my niece took of the Rotary Club lights display in Riverside Park at La Crosse WI. I was hoping to get down there this year but that’s probably not going to happen. If I do I will take some pictures or maybe a video. This picture was taken from the Minnesota side of the Mississippi River.

I like a good blues harp when it sounds like a train. I think Mona makes it sound that way on Look What They’ve Done To My Song and a few others. My Dad didn’t play often but every now and then after supper he would play harmonica, especially if my brothers were playing guitars. A couple songs I remember him playing were called Little Brown Jug and one he called Who Stole The Lock Off The $#!thouse Door, Lol. I don’t know if he made that one up or not. That brings back a lot of memories of my Dad.
Ricky Medlocke started out playing for the original Lynyrd Skynyrd band before they made it big. He left and started the band called Blackfoot. Now days he again plays for the revamped version of Lynyrd Skynyrd. The band Blackfoot had a couple hits called Highway Song and a song called Train, Train. On the song Train, Train there is some incredible blues harp played by Ricky Medlocke’s Grandfather. I think he was well into his 70’s at the time it was recorded. He gets the song rockin’ with the intro and does a smokin’ solo around 2:05 into the song.

This was our big yellow tom cat. My 3 year old grand niece Makaya named him Gravel because we found him on the gravel road near my house. Someone had dropped him off. I found him on a Friday night and my plan was to take him to the shelter on Monday so they could find him a home. We already had 2 cats and a dog and didn’t need another pet. Needless to say by Monday, thanks to Makaya, he had found a place in our hearts and stayed for 10 years.

There used to be a German fellow that owned a bar in town that made some good head cheese. I haven’t had any for years but it was good stuff. As for venison I’ve been trying to get some with my bow but haven’t had any luck. Not sure what the problem is, Lol.

Thanks Dennis but I had a lot of help. It was a last minute idea and we couldn’t contact everyone so I hope those that we missed will see this and post a picture. Mona and Lisa said they wished they could see all of us so maybe this will help.

Very nice, Jung

There’s a lot of songs I would love to hear them cover but I try not to suggest any to them. I have found out that I like being surprised by their choices and many of their covers have been songs that I never thought that highly of like Everyody’s Talking but I love listening to it now with Mona and Lisa singing it.

Jung, I have some great memories of those poker games, especially when we got a little older and could drink beer. My Mom didn’t allow alcohol in the house but on Saturdays my older Sister Mary would take my Mom to the laundry to wash all the clothes. While we helped carry the baskets of clothes out the front door, the beer was coming in the back door, Lol. Later when we seen Mary’s headlights come up the driveway the beer would go back out. The game usually died out shortly after that. Great times. The ones that weren’t playing poker were usually playing guitars in the living room.

Jung, Yeah their vocals would really sound good on this song and I think Mona would have fun with the harmonica. Would be great for a Duo Session I think.

I like this one Jung. It’s the first Neil Young song I remember hearing. My brother had it on an 8 track tape he played in his Corvair station wagon. I thought Neil’s voice was strange but I liked the song and the blues harp. I like how all these old songs we share and the Twins play bring back the memories. I think Mona and Lisa would knock this one out of the park.

Yeah my Dad played the harmonica, not often but he always kept it on the window ledge by where he always sat in the kitchen along with a jar of coins he used to play penny poker with us on Saturday nights. Sometimes if he lost his money in the poker game he would play the harmonica for us.

Yeah, John Popper was the front man for Blues Traveler and he could really play that harmonica, one of the best. He did the theme for the Roseanne sitcom and appeared on the show at least once. I always loved their Carolina Blues tune.
