Fall 1993 (About 25 Cavort Before its Over)

9/1/93
Back to barn after 2 week break, still hot. Les new top 40 off network, Duran Duran might be good, might not. Part flyers out, can we please skip the snowstorm Gare pleads. Ran thru half of upstairs archives to little effect, although rediscovered Too Rolllng Stoned. Les takes busted light and old kay acoustic. I'll never see them again.

9/15/93
Back to barn as Oct 8 gig shapes up,hallo props gathering. Milky Way better this time (draws few Snickers), Duran so so. Wa Wa making funny noises, you just cant steal a good wa wa anymore. Les in new Mazda pickup cuz his last new car got dirty. Four Horsemen has Charlie raving, it may be a gigglie tune. If I Fell harmonies still being worked. LEs moribund, even cranky, as is his wont. Les leaves amp in barn, wonder what I can get for it.

9/22/93
20 minute two guys on stools, as Lesl picks up an amp. The Church is sounding better and better however, do they have a boxed set out? Critics say pew.

10/6/93
Haloweenie decos well underway, with mad scientist scene shaping up. Fri night giggie canceled, so much for fall world tour t-shirts. Les plays cigarette-smellng Ovation all night but doesnt sound as bad as it smells. Good versions of From the Beginning, Moody for a Day, plus other acoustic-fest faves. First night for in barn coffee service. Boston next week, then final party tuneup. Shew biz is our lives.

10/20/93
Final Hallow tuneup sounding good, very warm and raining. Mom in law in prematurely, gack. Quick runthru of all faves, flyers continue to pour out in all directions but hp and down. Steve out Sat for professional cobweb installation. Under Milky Way is surprisingly strong new entry, Natures Way not a bad debut. Will it fly 8 years in a row? Stay tuned

10/25/93
Steve vascliniating on his costume between Father O'Hooligan and a Urologist seeking samples, dont mix that up with the bubbly is my only advice. Cheap prize trip with the too early Ma in law yesterday, all stoopid prizes aboard. Been tuning decos for weeks. This better be good

10/30/93
Despite early snow care Hallow 8 goes down, with help from new rocket engine heater. About 25 cavort before its over, with the hors douever girl winning first for not setting her own hair on fire. T. Helton putting 'animatron' in the strobe scene out front. Free house bottle of cheapest bourbon in Nashville goes in about 10 minutes down I know not who, so sneaking shots of Steves crown. Band is unremarkable yet not overly obnoxious. Gary once again cannot say Costume Contest with appearing drunk. Les' Captain and Toenail outfit fails to garner a prize, although Gary still hums Love will Keep Us Together who no ones around. Garys General Pantin costume gets no comments.

11/17/93
Two stools under guys. space shuttle heater runs out of gas. Just like NASA. Gary on cigaratee butt-tar, les on keyboard of the month. Halloweenie pictures up, too cool. Les off to walmart with his customary stack o quarters. Uh huh. Year 8 looks done to me.
