FLAGS, COMPUTERS AND OTHER UNRELATED SUBJECTS!!
Hi everyone. I want to start out by giving a shout out to Donna - apparently I stole her Union Jack flag at The Pond the other night and then promptly threw it into a different section of the crowd!! Well, I totally deny the allegations - there is no proof and I just would not.......hold on a second ...... ah, well, ...., look at todays pic ..... seems like I've been caught in the act!!! Ooops - sorry!!! I tend to go to a 'different' place when I am onstage and I am just not fully aware of what I'm doing, so it seems that I grabbed your flag, paraded it about for a bit, and then got rid of it - but not in your direction!! Sorry! I posted this pic today for you.
The Doheny Message Board on the main site seems to be down. I have had a lot of posts and emails letting me know. The webmaster is aware of the problem and is trying hard to fix the problem, so please be patient. We'll get it back as soon as we can.
Rehearsal yesterday was .... interesting!! Three weeks off, and it was like we were brand new!! No one had a clue how any of the songs went ...... my fingers were just refusing to go anywhere correctly and the others were suffering from the same 'finger amnesia' - but we did start working out the new tunes. I am sure that now we are back in a regular rehearsal schedule, it will all come flooding back. It was just interesting to find out that we dont actually know the songs as well as we thought!!
Today is a Camp Freddy album day, with Donovan and myself working on vocals. He has one more lead vocal to nail, and we both have some backing vox to work on. I just bought a new laptop computer, so I will take it with me and set it up while I'm sitting around. Maybe I can get online while I am over there and post a 'Live From The CF Album Sessions' thing - we'll see if I get it all working. And I am also planning on going down to The Joint tonight to see Ricky Warwick do some acoustic stuff. I think the plan is for me to join him onstage for a couple of songs, so I'll take a guitar and see what happens.
D-Wez - I actually cant stand the 'Sunday Roast' type meal. Hated it in the UK and still hate it now! Sunday lunch for me is a burrito from Baja Fresh!!
Ylais - Get better soon. Lots of chicken soup and old movies on TV. Thats Doctor Morrison's advice!!
I am going to keep the next chat at 7.00pm California time on a Sunday night. Sunday the 6th of March to be precise. So mark your calendars and we will see you in there. I think thats all I have for you right now - I am STILL working out what to do with the rest of the Tsunami posters and Tees - bear with me.
For now, I wanna say have a great day everyone, and if anyone has any more requests for Saturdays CFR, let me know. I'll do what I can. See you when you're standing in front of me.
Peace
Billy

Perfect day/time for the chat. :-) I'll be on Spring Break! I am in need of another week off from classes.

Hey, thanks and dont feel bad about where the flag went!! Some friends of mine told me it was quite amusing to watch 2 people fight over it in the pit. And I must say whatever 'place' you go to when you are performing it looks like you are having fun!

Billy,
Requests for CFR you ask? You got it.
I'm "Jonesy"-ing for for some Sex..Pistols that is. How 'bout the Camp Freddy staple, "Pretty Vacant"?
Thank you,
Jay

I was on hold with my car insurance co. today & would you believe the music playing was ABBA?!?! It's a conspiracy I tell you!

Hi Billy :)
your posts are a delight to read, i swear! love it.
What's this Ricky Warwick cat about? What's his music like? I should go tonight too, maybe I'll want to keep the shirt!
"California-Doheny"
Ditto to this request. So far it is my favorite Doheny song.
I have to say that Donovan is a great vocalist and I think he should be on Camp Freddy radio more often. Someone called me from the last camp freddy show and he was tearing it up on Ballroom Blitz!
Sunday chat sounds awesome, I am there!
and if you need a dancing girl for a Doheny show, you've got one right here baby!!

bobbi o - I saw that too & thought of Billy!
I think it's hysterical that they have pigeons on the side for NYC. What's next? Roaches and rats?

how about Jonesy and Scott Weiland doing "Bodies" that you mentioned on air 2 weeks ago (from Jonesys Jukebox)?
Posted by: Chase at February 23, 2005 08:23 PM
since it looks like we're all feeling the jonesy this week, i'll add to the pool with a request for anything by the neurotic outsiders.
and i can't wait for the chat!

Lisa says she wants Submission by the sex pistols.
PS this is David standing in for Lisa.
I am just being a nosey sod whilst Lisa is sitting (Lounging really) right next to me.
Lisa also says thank you Billy for the get well wishes, she is taking your advice and watching The Ray Badbelly theatre, okay not an old movie but an old stupid show......I am also making sure she is getting plenty of soup. I will have to add chicken soup to the menu, it has been mainly veggie so far.....yes I am Lisa's personal chef/assistant/gofer.

Hiya Billy! Thanks for the get well wishes, and the good advice. :D
If you need a dancing fool ever give me a buzz! I'm a maniac.
Love
Lisa
