Orange Bowl Halftime Farce: Ashlee Simpson is TERRIBLE!

What a joke the Orange Bowl halftime show is. I’m so sick of musicians faking their parts. The Kelly Clarkson (or however you spell it) band was a joke. I just saw the drummer do a big drum fill and the music track was playing the HH. The drums on the recording were an obvious drum machine but they were an acoustic kit live. Trace Atkins’ drummer was playing behind the track missing fills all over.

Oh man, Ashlee Simpson is TERRIBLE! TERRIBLE! She’s out of tune! She can’t even sing in time with her original recorded karaoke guide vocal! Forget the fact that she’s about 10% as attractive as her sister.

WAIT WAIT…HOLY COW, WHEN ASHLEE FINISHED THE AUDIENCE BOO’D HER!!! WHAT A SMART AUDIENCE! YEAH!!!

Stolen SUB

Here’s a little salute to the asshole who broke into my bass player’s suv:

After a gig we hauled our gear into our respective vehicles and the bass player had the PA system in his suv. He had a bunch of stuff in his garage so he had to park outside overnight. When he went out to his truck in the morning he found a broken rear window and one of our JBL 18″ subs was missing. That part sucks.

Now for the “justice” part of the story:

At this particular gig we had some kind of problem with the PA. There was a bad cable or something which caused us to blow one of our 18″ JBL subs.

So the asshole crook has a 50/50 chance of getting a good 18″ sub for the pawn shop so he can go buy some crack. Well buddy, no crack for you. You stole the blown one you loser…
