Is there a part two? I mean, you did play the wedding march on a fiddle at the nup-chulz? Am I right or am I right?

Brandon: I didn't ever see them again... I wonder if they are still together?!?!

The part one is refering to the fact that I've had so many weirdo gigs that there will be other GIGS FROM HELL posts in the future. You can count on that!

Now get to bed. It's 2 AM in the morning!

nice audio sample!! you're talented enough to make any song sound sweet on that violin of yours! ... how about "Dr. Feelgood" by Motley Crue. heh. just kiddin'.

OOH Dan... maybe I should do just that? Take requests! NOW you've got me thinking! It could be a hoot! Thanks for the idea!

oohhh. i don't know. this might get out of hand for ya. like opening pandora's box. but what the hey! right? how about this obnoxious one: do you know "Changes" by Yes (from the 90125)? that opening section of the song is just pure madness. anyway, this is fun! later!

Hey, you're really good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And your Guido story is very funny. Reminds me of my old days when I lived in NJ.

A little fabricated ending....

Vinny and Angie were wed in a quaint ceremony attended by only close relatives and friends, which put the seat count near three hundred. Angie's gown was a lovely design, complete with elegantly puffed sleeves, and rhinestone-encrusted shoulders.

Angie was blissfully happy until the day Vinny, or what was assumed to be the remains of Vinny, in a dumpster outside Tonio's Restaurant. Angie hocked her ring so she could pay for the funeral, but had enough left to pay off her Caddy.

Angie is available and is keeping Last Girl in mind as the musician for her next wedding.

Hi - Just wanted to let you know I just tagged you for a music meme. Hope you'll play! =)

I think this must have been some hollywood script - great material!

Hilarious story! Found your site by way of Christine! Great to see such a cool blog based around making music - hopefully I'll find some inspiration to do more than write awful songs I bin and actually start keeping one or two!

The violin was my first instrument, which I only played for a few years in elementary school.

I'm glad that "Vinny" paid you a large sum to tolerate the crazy behavior! Just once I'd like to be well-compensated for some of the things that I have to deal with on a regular basis...

Thanks for your comment! You know, I am the exact same with wanting american type foods now that I am in England. Even foods that I rarely ate in the states, i.e. cornbread? What the hell? It's as if now I can't live without. My christmas wish list consisted marshmallows and jiffy cornbread mix.
I noticed the Daisy Rock Guitar link on your site! D I V I N E ! I cannot tell you how excited I about this discovery!

In true Brooklyn Italian style, "that story is a pissah". I kept hearing Adrianna from the Sopranos saying "Oh Christophah!"

The clip was fucking brilliant. "Every Breath You Take" would have been a good choice too.

Thanks for visiting my blog via Michele! Your blog is quite entertaining and I LOVE the Paint it Black/Godfather medley -- hee-hee! I gonna blogroll you.
chenoah | Homepage | 02.16.05 - 7:00 pm | #

That is awesome! You are an amazing writer as well as an amazing musician (of course I don't have to tell you that!)
Robin | Homepage | 02.16.05 - 7:08 pm | #

That is fabulously funny!
Jay | Homepage | 02.16.05 - 7:23 pm | #

Heh..i just glad you didn't wake up with a horses head next to you!
Michelle | Homepage | 02.16.05 - 8:52 pm | #

Is there any way to get this on an MP3? Is it on a CD?

If it's a really simple answer, let me apologize in advance
Becka | Homepage | 02.16.05 - 9:33 pm | #

veronica | Homepage | 02.16.05 - 10:26 pm | #

Loved the story, you're a great writer. Looking forward to hearing more "gigs from hell." Ever do a kids birtday party back in the day? ;0

Paint It Black/Godfather Medley rocks! You are so talented and I just love that style and sense of humor you got going on! And, I am thrilled that you are back from vacation!

John: There are worse things in life than being creeped out by repetitive listenings to my music!

Dave: My girlfriends and I always said, "Never date a guy from NJ...you just might have to live there!"

Billy: darn

Seven: You are certainly welcome ANY time, big boy!!

Nat: Have I told you lately that I love you? A heartfelt and lovely fabricated ending... But what you should have said was that I turned down Angie's offer because by that time I had a HUGE record deal and was busy getting ready for my gig at Madison Square Garden!

Christine: Give me a couple of days and I'll take your challenge!

Claire: Welcome...Can't wait to hear one of YOUR songs. Believe...don't trash!

Pimme: It's never to late to pull out the fiddle and start it up again! I wish i could make that money ALL the time!

Island Girl: Jiffy cornbread...You really ARE homesick. Make me a list and I'll send it off to you soon! Care package. I was there...I FEEL YOUR PAIN!!!

Panthergirl: Hey, i might take you up on that EVERY BREATH challenge. Keep checking in. Like I said..I feel an insperation coming on!

Chenoah: Thanks for the blogroll. I'll be over real soon!

Robin: THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Ooh it feels so good to get positive feedback, you have NO idea!

Jay: Glad you liked it! Hurry back!

Michelle: YIKES! I'm glad too! Sometimes when I wake up after a late-drinking-kind-of-night, I wonder who the guy next to me is...but then I remember that it's Last Guy and not some silly horse head!

Becky: Not a silly question at all. Maybe after I do a few more of these little blurbs, I can put them on a CD and send them to whoever wants them. Until then, you can get my CD's from my website. They are actully finished!! With words, and music, and a beat and everything! (If you remind me to do this for you when there's enough to put on a CD, I'd be happy to do that to you, Becka)

Veronica: I'm so happy you are hooked. Feeling's mutual!

Acakai: Oh, I've got a million of 'em! Can't say that I've ever done a kids party... Although there were kids at some of the gigs I've played!

Lois: Shucks, you KNOW how I feel about you! Mutual admiration society here!
