The Briar Patch

 3, I currently have 3 blogs half done NOT counting this one. So I aim to finish them, just been a lot going on with my head full of ideas and none flow together great. So this is a mixed bag... Lets time travel, to the late 80s, early 90s. I am a hockey nut. I love hockey cards, collect them all. Love spending hours outside playing hockey in front of the house winter or summer. My fav team should have been the Oilers in Northern Alberta right? Wrong I went by my hockey cards and liked Detroit. They had these 2 young superstars Lidstrom and Fedorov. Plus some guy named Stevie was the captain. For a few years I was big into hockey, then about high school I stopped really caring. They were just jocks, lame. Of course this was the time the Wings were unbeatable and it would have been way better to be a loud and proud fan....I moved to Edmonton and was surrounded by Oiler fans and still didn't care. Until I started in a fantasy league. I went with my favs, many from the mid 90s on the ...

Music is something I love. I have it on for most things I do. Work, travel, sports, just chilling at home. I make little playlists for everything. Pre sports lists, country lists, rap lists, chill lists, if I am in a mood I think of a list for it. I also love MOST music. Honestly pop is the only music I don't download. Simple fact is pop, or good pop is hard to avoid so I don't really need to download it. It will be forced on me. I fear though I am becoming the guys I hated a few years back.... I am becoming that guy who is saying fuck new music sucks. I like, in no order.... Guns N Roses, Metallica, Motley Crue, Korn, System, Nirvana, Hed P.E, Dr. Dre, NWA, Eminem, Pac, Johnny Cash, Alan Jackson. That's my meat and potatoes. There are tons more but those can always pick me up. HOWEVER even the stuff they have done in the last decade is not AMAZING. So really nothing has blown my mind in years...... I guess I am going to rant maybe on somethings I have enjoyed. Maybe someth...

I am getting old, I know it from the Rainmaker last night. First I went to the country night which I never likely would have done years prior. Second I found drunks annoying! I don't think I could handle a bar anymore. People spilling, people falling, people bumping into you. For some reason I used to like this! Now I will be honest the daisy duke parade was nice. However I a willing to bet half them girls or more were there to get white girl wasted more than see the acts. Also the guys made me laugh, lot of clean cowboy boots. Like they don't get worn much. Not that I should say much I don't even own cowboy boots. The lineup was good. I have never heard of Emo Leblanc, but he was good. I have to say the most actual country of all the bands. River Town Saints also was new to me, they are pretty damn good BUT they are totally new country. I mean when they started playing fiddy cent I laughed. Oh and them girls in Daisy Dukes started dancing like it was a rap video. Dan David...
