I was was wrong!
It looks like both the guys that I thought the JAZZ would pick went earlier than #14. Ronnie Brewer is solid. Good athlete, handles the ball well, finishes above the rim and understands how important it is to win. He reminds me alot of Kirk Snyder and we all know how that worked out. Also, this shooting guard needs to work on his shot but his game is built on athleticism. I can't wait to see what this guy does in the RMR this year. The second round picks: Dee Brown and Milsap. Dee Brown and D-Will went to the same college. This should help with some synergy and chemistry in the backcourt. I don't know much about Milsap. He is a 3 time rebounding champ (NCAA-not that shabby) and is from Karl Malone's alma mater. This draft was a solid "B-" in my opinion. We still need to address the center position though...Joel Pryzbilla? I say YES! Peace-Dag!
Mike Allred @ Black Cat's tomorrow night...
I went and picked up my hold at Black Cat Comics (2261 Highland Drive SLC, UT) today and I saw the flyer for Mike Allred's apperance tomorrow night. I'm so happy that I work until 6pm on Friday. IF I decided to head over there after work I'm sure I would be blackballed before the 7pm cut off time. I REALLY wanted to get my copies of "Golden Plates" signed. Ok, I'm kidding about that part. I dig this guys style and concepts. His run with "X-Statix" is inspiring and MADMAN is just CLASSIC! Get out there FAN BOYS and represent! Peace-DAG!!!

Who Am I?
So, what defines each one of us as a person? What we do for a living? What we drive? what circles we hang out in? What we wear? Most of us go through life doing the JOB that we were so-called "trained to do". Pull a lever, push a button. You really don't understand any of it, and then you just die. Sometimes a moment is ALL we can expect from perfection. Everything is ALWAYS falling apart. I'm not sure if any of this is making sense to you or to me for that matter. A goal of mine is to start writing ONE VERSE per week so all the music projects that I'm involved in. One verse doesn't seem that much so If I exceed my weekly alotment of lyrics then that would be just peachy. Stop living as a reaction to circumstances and start living as a force for what you should be. Peace-DAG!

Four Play, No Play...
Numbs did the X96 4-Play show yesterday. The set was strong. I'd give it a 3 out of 5. There were a few miscues but we kept the ball rolling. It was good to see some familiar faces in the crowd. A group called "The Management" won the thing. Who knows, maybe we will get a "wildcard" spot later on. No funny jokers over here. I gotta go and write some lyrics. Peace-DAG!

That's Right, EFF FACE!
There seem to be alot of EFF FACES around lately. Some are at my work, some in the regular local population and some are my close friends. Maybe we are all EFF FACES or have the capacity to be an EFF FACE some of the time. I went to Provo tonight for a NUMBS practice and let's just say the show on Wednesday is going to be a crap shoot. It's either SNAKE EYES or a 7. I am NEVER going to settle for anything less then the BEST. I know it is CLICHE and TRITE but that's how I'm livin' I could go on for HOURS about this...but I don't have the time. It's time to step the game up like Ole' Billy Ripkin did in this 80's baseball card. Maybe I am the EFF FACE. Peace- DAG!

Numbs Practice, In downtown PROVO?
NO WAY! the buildings aren't this big in Provo. So yeah, Roo is still in Hawaii (Until Friday night) and Gunnar couldn't make it because his kids are in town. It was Me, Rick and Shanty tonight planning out the X-96 4-Play event. Usually when it's us when get nothing done because we RAMBLE but tonight was progressive. We got it mapped out and I think the 30 minute set time we are alloted is going to RULE! Bitchin' Camaro style. I am REALLY excited about this gig for some reason. Maybe it's because "NUMBS" hasn't done a show since November 2005? Oh yeah, Tonie and Elektra had "Nacho Libre" TIX for tonight...FREE TIX. I passed on them for practice. DEDICATION, SACRIFICE...DAG!

Rat-Tat-Tat-4-PLAY!
http://www.x96.com/12605time/station/4play.asp Numbs made it in, Rotten Musicians didn't...sad. I wanted BOTH to rep this event. Oh well, Jodi @ X96 said The Musicians are on the "Alternate Band List" soooo if someone backs out then RM has a great shot. Maybe we could booby trap The Brobecks or Starmy? Hmmm...
