PETE stole my bike: DC ∞

horseshoe i will ask mindy v v nicely, but only if she ever responds to my emails.

everyone else: i am still in the library and it won't be beer thirty for at least another two hours. i wish you all the best in nyc and in arlington and at gay parties and at concerts i can't go to. i'm going to go buy some PBR and Cholula and drink Enlisted Men by the FREEDOM ISN'T FREE FLAGPOLE and see if I can't get into some fights

cool?

I would hang but have 1) house guest and 2) ungodly early flight tomorrow a.m., so must actually pack more than 20 minutes before leaving the house.

i sorta imagined the last line to the tune of When The Whip Comes Down

(just the last line, tho)

"This 4 piece outfit includes full three part harmonies floating over tasty grooves played by a slammin rhythm section that includes percussion, drums, electric bass, keys and guitar. 'Soaring vocals over world-class musicianship, a smart dance party'."

Rob Lethert, of the Boozehounds, has been singing and playing music since he was six. Back then, he listened to Neil Diamond – today he is the lead singer and guitar player for Bozeman’s “trailer-trash, country, rock n’ roll band,” the Boozehounds.

The Boozehounds are Rob Lethert (Vocals, Guitar), Kenny Stancil (Drums), Texas Ted Culp (Slide Guitar), and Mike Schultz (Bass). The band formed in April of 2004 and have been evolving ever since.

In just two months they released their first CD which featured the bands favorite cover songs.

“I like playing stuff nobody knows because they think it’s original and if you screw up, nobody know,” said Lethert.

While the last album was covers, the Boozehounds upcoming album, scheduled to be released this summer, will feature all original tracks, with the exception of one Tex Tucker cover. Look for some of these original songs at the Boozehounds next live show.

“Most of these songs are about shitty cars, mean women, and getting to drunk... the important things in life,” said Lethert

The band named itself “The Boozehounds,” because, according to Lethert, “We’re all pretty much a bunch of alcoholics.” They like to have a good time when they play and have been known to fall off the stage in the process. (For those wishing to buy them a drink, they enjoy beer, Jaeger, and tequila.)

What’s next for the Boozehounds? “Since we don’t have any movie picture deals, we are just going to continue playing live music in Bozeman,” said Lethert. “And in the summer we will be starting a tour of Colorado and Texas with our new CD.” •

have you heard any other ethio stuff? alemayehu eshete is another big favorite of mine and luckily he's got a much larger and more easily findable discography.

yes plz!

...i haven't heard much ethiopian stuff, unfortunately, but would be very happy to hear what's out there

right now i love having a yard and a grill and beers!

(this was somewhat mitigated by the TV in the back of the restaurant playing Stealth)
