Nervous turkeys
…NO, not us!
How ya’ll doin’? We have had some great times recently at
some newer clubs. Had a great gig in Bettendorf @ Uptown
Neighborhood Bar & Grill. Great stage, great crowd, great
bar staff, and just a great night all around. We were up
north last weekend in Cedar Rapids at a new place
called Volume! What a blast!!! People were piling into
that place after the Hawkeye loss (uhg!) and still ready
to party their hinies off! Had a great time there and
hope to be back up soon. Definitely worth the road trip
if you get the itch. That would be the itch that DOESN’T
require an antibiotic.
So now we’re knee deep into the ‘Mean Season’. Oh don’t
get me wrong. This time of the year is wonderful for
getting together with family and friends in the spirit of the
season. I am completely down with that. Family and
friends are the cornerstones of our lives. Without them,
our lives would be drastically different. Some good, some
not-so-much. I don’t think I need to mention any names
here. 
However, from Halloween until sometime after Valentine’s
Day is what I’m referring to as the ‘Mean Season’. Mean to
your wallets, mean to YOUR time/personal schedules, and
most importantly mean to your waste lines. I mean, my
God, could you have one more plate of cookies shoved in
front of your pie hole?!?!?!…and be expected to turn ‘em
down??? "How ’bout another helping of turkey, dear?"
…sure, one more helping and I’m going to crap feathers!
Pie, cake, beer, mashed potatoes, chips, dip, beer,
casseroles, cheese, nuts, beer, candy, anything
deep fried, and.did I mention beer?!?!? How else-really-
do people expect us to cope with a 34" inseam and a
48" inch belt?!?! 
Anyway, all joshing aside, we hope the upcoming holidays
find all of you able to enjoy all that this time of year brings -
sharing good times with family and friends…all in the
comfort of elastic waste pants. 
Also, find some time to spend taking in a Spatterdash
show or two…we may even let you rub our bellies!
