    Hey,
    Check out our upcoming gig:



    It’s set to be a night of great live music as well as cocktail specials and a DJ playing all the rock n roll and garage hits you could ever want. Watusi is a great venue with a cool vibe and the bands are pumped and ready to go!

    What fond memories I have of the Yoko Ono compendium. Every track a blood diamond. So nice to be able to relive the highlights via an uncannily perceptive written review.

    Just like being there.

    Sucked In Badly, my blog chronicling my attempts to play all my
    Liberace, Yoko Ono, Dewey Martin and other unlistened records, tapes
    and cds is now online at



    www.suckedinbadly.blogspot.com



    "Most of you know the Yoko Ono story; how she drowned the Rolling
    Stone's Brian Jones, invented Glad Wrap and most heinously of all,
    foisted avant-garde-ism on The Monkees. Yes, that Yoko Ono."



    This replaces the previous address. This blog will be updated weekly on a Sunday until I can't take it anymore!
