| ROCKSTAR (LIFE) UPDATE: A couple weekends ago, back in the ‘Towel… MOM: Oh the ‘Luler <aka Tallulah, that’s her Listowel name – Ie. The Bear> she wouldn’t come in. She just stared down the street waiting for you. And these people and they’re fighting right across the street. ME: That’s life in the hood mom… MOM: And in the summer – ME: You thought all these problems would go away when the last neighbour got evicted, hahahaha. MOM: I know, but who were they, where are they all coming from… my word. At least their fighting got the ‘Luler in the house. ME: Hahahaa, “South-Central”. MOM: I know, like; “C’mon Lula, get in the house already.” Well, how was the show at least? ME: Yeah, the band was really really good. The whole band was good – it was a mix of bands. Frankie was really good. MOM: How was Dr. Qureshi on drums? ME: He was really good too. MOM: Amanda might be buying drums for Noah. ME: Does Amanda know that they’re loud. MOM: I think she does, but they don’t have sound proof room anywhere. ME: She could buy the drums, and I could keep them at my place, and Noah could come to my place. I could learn drums for the band!! MOM: Ugh, the accordion, the drums, that other thing… ME: The Melodica. It’s a melodica mom. MOM: Ohhh, Lula. ME: Maybe that’s what the band needs, maybe that’s what we’re missing – drums. MOM: Yes, that’s what you’re missing. ME: The drums. Yeah, we could hire a drummer. MOM: You could ask Dr. Qureshi. You could ask if he wants to be in a band that is never going anywhere. You could tell him that the only time you were ever to play a show, they just closed the bar rather than having you play. ME: No man, we played there once before. MOM: Yes, that’s right. <something about the dog being in town, but I wasn’t, it was confusing> MOM: But yeah, the dog wouldn’t leave, it was like she knew you were just up the street, but she didn’t want to move. So we watched those people fighting over there, and up there. ME: Yeah mom, it’s South-Central. MOM: We just watched them fighting across the street. ME: South-Central. I saw someone throw a chair off the porch when I was walking back, just down the block from here. MOM: Really, that’s not surprising. And there’s a party going on back over there. And Bell Canada is a mess. So the show was good though? Was it packed? ‘ ME: Yeah, really good. Small place, so yeah it was filled. A ton of talent up there. It’s too bad Frank‘s singer is gone. MOM: Well did you say? ME: Say what? Offer to sing for them? MOM: Yeah. ME: No. Nope. No. I don’t even think Damen could sing for them. MOM: Really? ME: Well, I’ve never heard Damen sing that style of music before. MOM: Oh, Luler, how are you doing big baby… ME: And I can’t afford to lose Damen. Damen’s is the whole band. Without Damen singing, we are NOTHING. Nothing. I’m not going to offer Damen up to sing for another band. MOM: Ohhh, right. You’re curbing his career, Mike. ME: …. Damnit… you’re right… damnit. |
