FINGERS IN PIES

That seems to be me this week. Fingers in pies. I have had busy days, filled with various different appointments and jobs. Filming some footage for a project, rehearsing guitar parts for the Diablo auditions next week, listening to a pitch about another project, looking at computer screens while updating sites, editing video and working on the acoustic song. Throw in a mixture of Pilates, accountants and the odd chiropractor appointment and you get a good visual of the week so far. Today, Ricky and I are headed into the rehearsal studio to get amps and sounds sorted out for Circus Diablo, and I will be popping out tonight to see Kid Rock do his thing. It'll be nice to strap a guitar on and turn it up for a while today and even nicer to get the rest of the Circus Diablo line up sorted out next week.

I gotta say that the whole LOST repeat thing is driving me nuts!! Last night was another 'compilation' episode, recapping the past two seasons, and answering nothing. And then they announce four 'all new' episodes starting next week. FOUR? How about running the whole season and getting us some answers? Dave said it best when he said that even the writers have no idea whats going on!! INVASION, however, is a different story. It gets better every week (apart from the really bad sets and green screen filming!) and last nights was no exception. I also checked out Get Rich Or Die Tryin' courtesy of the ubiquitous Netflix service. My review?..... don't bother.

Jillianne - Open Water Certification is fairly simple. An afternoon in the pool, followed by four real dives, and you're good to go. Advanced (which I just got) is 5 speciality dives, which need to include a Deep Dive, a Navigation Dive, and three others of your choice. I did a Wreck Dive, a Boat Dive and a DPV Dive (diver propulsion vehicle - the 007 device!!).

Peebs/Scott - Smoking is only allowed on that boat on the top deck. I, of course, just HAVE to try and break the rule!! Hence the picture for today. Taken on a recent Camp Freddy trip, I just HAD to go BEHIND the desk. Just HAD to figure out how the computer worked!!! Just HAD to get caught messing around about 30 seconds after the pic was taken!!! Although I look good behind that desk - maybe I have a new career ahead of me??!!

DaveC - A chatroom would be cool, right? When I get time, I'll add one. Wont be until after my vacation though - got too much going on as it is.

Mary - Good question. I think there would be ways that the web could backfire on an artist and have a negative effect....but its 7.00am and my brain doesnt work so good right now!! One thing that springs to mind is being misquoted on blogs such as this, and having your work copied and pasted incorrectly on a bunch of other sites.

Kate - Well, I try and actually DO the things I want to do.....I have a 'drive a Nascar' thing booked for the summer, I dive, I shoot ..... maybe the whole space shuttle thing would be fun. As for adrenaline sports, I'm not really a 'sport' guy (even though diving and shooting are both recognized as sports) and jumping out of a perfectly good airplane does NOT appeal to me at all!!

Beth - Funnily enough, I was talking about developing an underwater cigarette holder at the weekend!!

Matt S - I actually did get an email about some show in Costa Mesa on Oct 20th but I have no details as yet, and I know that it is NOT confirmed. It will take a while for the details to filter over to me, but when its a definite date, I'll let you know.

Simon - The new firearm is a Colt 1911 Commander style .45cal, stainless steel with black grips, laser sights and a 5" barrel. Jack Bauer style!!

Spencer - The answer to your question is most certainly the subject of a larger forum than we have here. The short answer is that I came close to dying, got scared, changed a few things, and worked fucking hard to get out of the gutter. That, and a belief that I am not in charge - that something bigger than me calls the shots.

I get really anxious when I have a list of things that aren't finished. I get obsessed with crossing everything off the list and making sure I have done everything I need to - I have lists of the lists I have. A menu, an index if you like, of all the different lists. Lists sometimes get subsections ..... I am sure I am not a well man!! And I am also sure that they have a medical name for this condition!! I just call it lunatic! Either way, I am currently a man with many half finished things on the list. So I am going to do my best to spend some of today, and all of tomorrow getting shit finished. The real trick is not adding anything else to the list while you are doing this. But I have a tendency to say yes a lot - to agree to get involved with a project, even though I have six others on the go already. OK - get moving Billy, dont start another blog, or another song, or another video. FINISH the ones you've got going already! Wish me luck ..... and have a great day everyone.

Peace
Billy

WE'RE GONNA NEED A BIGGER BOAT!!

Running late this morning (probably due to the video editing on the V-Blog!! - I got a little crazy today!!) so I'm gonna keep it brief. Hope you enjoy the Blog - one of these days I'm going to buy an underwater video camera and then we can REALLY get into some cool Blogs! For now, it is what it is - no reason for doing it, other than I can! Hope you enjoy it. The whole thing on the boat was hilarious - every time I tried to light a cigarette up, some guy would come along and stop me .... it became a game between them and us .... cat and mouse!! The fact we got an incident on camera was funny - I had no idea he was behind me when I lit that one! Later today I am working on the acoustic Circus Diablo with a friend of mine, who's going to do some percussion on the track. Once thats done, I can sing on it, mix it, and it'll be up on the site in no time. I am also in the studio tomorrow with Mike Clink, singing on one of the Camp Freddy album tracks. It'll be good to work on that thing again - its been forever since we did anything on it!!! I'll do a Q+A blog sometime during this week, so let me have it - and I am also attempting to keep an eye on the topics over on the Community, and will respond as and when I have time over there as well. This whole Web thing can get quite time consuming! But I love doing it, so its all good. OK, I really have to get out of here, so I'll see y'all later.

SHOOTING THE SCUBA

Thought I would post a quick "Welcome To The Weekend" blog for everyone. Its Saturday again, which means an all-new CFR tonight.... no I really mean it this time!! Dave and I will be on air for sure this time! And as the week has been pretty busy for me, I have a weekend of leisure sorted out for me. My wife is in Law School, and is completely tied up with studying right now, so I am being left to my own devices - oh God, are we sure thats such a good idea??!! So today, I am going to the shooting range with a friend of mine, before the radio show. And tomorrow, I will be getting up at 6.00am (WHAT??!!!) to go diving. I decided that as I am off to Maui soon on vacation, and I am only two dives away from my Advanced Open Water Certification, I should really get those dives done and written up, and pass my Advanced before I go. That way, I can do some pretty cool dives once I get to Hawaii. So if anyone wants to hang out tomorrow, just make your way to Catalina, and drop into the ocean about 100ft. I'll be easy to spot - I'll be the one flailing away trying to remember everything I've forgotten since the last time I dived!!! I plan on taking the camera with me, and although I obviously wont get any underwater shots (what am I, Jaques Cousteau??), I might be able to do a blog from the boat, and show you just how unattractive all the scuba gear looks!! We'll see what we can do. Todays pic is one of my friends that I met in Hawaii last time. Thats me, hovering in the background, cos I decided that Mr Turtle was looking a bit pissed off with all the attention!!!

By the way, I want to thank everyone for sending in the Suzi Quattro song, 48 Crash. You are all amazing people, to even bother responding. In this age, most people cant be bothered to help. So it will be played on tonights CFR in honor of you all. And thank you (in advance, I havent got it yet!!) for the DVD's of the Spike TV thing. If it turns out alright, I'll put it up on the sites in a bigger format, so that it can be downloaded and enjoyed at a higher res. And while I remember, there is a nice little piece over at the Drifter Clothing site - www.drifter.com - (and the link is also on my handy little links list on the right of this post) - or, for the seriously mouse-impaired ..... CLICK HERE!!!! and click NEWS when you get there.

Other than that, I have been busy preparing for some Circus Diablo drummer auditions, happening soon. We think we have our bass player, but I cant announce it just yet. He is flying in to do the auditions in a couple of weeks, and if it all works out, we will be able to complete the line up after that. You lot will be the first to know. And we have a meeting next week regarding our plans for August and November. Nothing is in stone, but we are attempting to put a few shows in for August on the West Coast, and a few shows in for November in the UK. SO much is tentative, but we are doing our best. So more Circus Diablo news as it comes in. Oh yeah - and the acoustic version of Loaded is getting done - slowly!! Just vocals and percussion to go, and then we'll mix it and put it up for members of the Community. Which is ticking along quite nicely.

The new Camp Freddy site is looking like it will be launched on May 1st - again, I am sure that something will go wrong, and we'll have to push it back, but thats the plan right now. I am going through all the pages and trying to get everything to read correctly and look cool. It has been designed by my friend, Yury Shenon, and between us, we are doing what we can, when we can. It will be up soon.

And I have my fingers in a few other interesting pies right now, so I have been taking meetings, talking about a lot of different stuff, and getting to be creative in many different ways. That is how I like my weeks to be, so I am really happy right now. Some more Camp Freddy stuff is being put in place, we are working on the Circus Diablo plans, the web stuff is thriving (and keeps me busy), I have a couple of different projects being worked on, a new gun to pick up in 10 days time, and a vacation to look forward to ...... this is one very greatful person, signing off to get on with his day. I hope everyone has a fun weekend, and I'll be back next week.

Peace

Billy

FROM 24 TO 48

This current season of 24 has me literally screaming "NO!!" at the TV when the episode comes to an end each week. I cant believe they are stopping it right there ..... at least let me see what happens to ....... it really is Crack TV. What about Audrey? How will Secretary Heller make things ok? Is Logan gonna manage to cover it up? Can Chloe hack into CTU (again?)..... the answer to all of these questions is, of course, Jack Bauer. Jack will come swinging/screeching/flying in, guns blazing, and sort it all out. He might get shot/stabbed/burnt in the process - he might have to sacrifice his first born to the terrorists to get results - he might even have to follow another 14 dead end leads before he finally gets his man. But he will get his man. I dont have time to explain right now - you have to trust me, I'm just doing my job!! I LOVE this show!!!

The Spike TV Autorox show ran last night, and I was pleasantly surprised at how it looked and sounded. Normally, TV sound is fairly lame, with the guitars too quiet and everything sounding sterile, but Camp Freddy's version of Surrender sounded storming!! And the editing was quick and exciting too - in TV terms, I think it was a success. Being introduced by Pamela Anderson was interesting ..... I'm not sure she knew what she was reading from the autocue - but she was jumping up and down as we came on, so it seems she liked us!! It was our first appearance with Scott as a member, and to me, it was a strong one. I couldnt really comment on the rest of the show, cos when I realized they were giving awards to CARS!! I just switched over. ...."and the award for best dashboard goes to ...... the Chevy Tahoe .....!!????" Oh GOD!!!! The video is over at Dave's site - but if ANYONE had the technology to get it onto DVD I REALLY need a copy. Email or post if you recorded it on DVD. Oh yeah - and one more thing. I am looking for an MP3 of Suzi Quattro singing the song "48 Crash" - released sometime in the 70's. I've been singing it in my head for weeks, and need to play it on CFR. So if you have that one knocking around as well, you know what to do...!!

I have a meeting about the missing Camp Freddy site tomorrow, so hopefully we can get V2.0 up and running really soon. And the Circus Diablo community is starting to thrive - that makes me VERY happy. We are currently working on an acoustic (ish) version of one of the songs from the album, called Loaded, which will be exclusively available to registered members of the Community only. It will also not be released anywhere else. I want the people who are building this family to get something that is theirs. The version of Loaded that appears on the album is rocking - big guitars, big drums, lots of energy. So I will be interested to put this slow, acoustic, percussion version of the song up first, let you guys listen to it, and then have you hear the album version later on. Its normally the other way around - album comes out, and THEN they do acoustic versions of the song. And while we are talking about Circus Diablo, we met yesterday and started working out our plan - seems like we will be putting the live rhythm section together soon - very exciting. And hopefully I will have some news about a couple of songs shortly. Keep yer browsers pointed here.

I have no idea why the last V-Blog was causing so much trouble. Some people got it fine, and other people were having problems. I am hoping its not because of the size of the file. I mean they have started to get long recently - only because I enjoy doing them and I wanna make them as good and as informative as I can. But maybe I have to go back to making them short clips, as opposed to 6 minute mini documentaries!! I'll see if I can find out why tomorrow. Hope it didnt drive you all too mad.

I have to get out of here and go down to the Eco Dive Shop - off to Maui soon, for some Scuba, and I only have one more dive to do before I am qualified as Advanced Open Water Diver. So I figured I would go dive Catalina and get the certification before I go to Hawaii. That way, I can do the Back Wall at Molokini (known as a pretty serious drift dive) and also a serious Wreck dive. I'm also pondering over doing a night dive or two ...... the dives where your imagination REALLY gets a work out!!! So have a great day everyone, and I'll be back soon. I'm just gonna dive over to The Community now and see whats cookin over there ......

Peace

THE PREMATURELY TERMINATED V BLOG.

I make myself laugh. I really do. I mean, I have these grand plans and schemes ..... "what I'll do is - I'll answer all the qusetions on video, and then edit some live footage inbetween. Then I'll stick it up on the Blog" .... Well, first of all, Ive been back from New York for a couple of days, and have been so tired that I just couldn't look at a computer screen, let alone edit video for a couple of hours. And then, when I finally got around to it last night, I got through about half the questions, and realized that the V Blog was already 5 minutes long!! These things are gonna turn into hour long documentaries if I'm not careful. I'll be entering them into Film Festivals!!! - Hold on, thats not a bad idea. Ive seen some of the Fim Festival entries - 35 minutes of logs floating down a river - hardly riveting entertainment!!! Maybe I should just edit all my V-Blogs together and call it - A Year In The Life Of A Computer Geek???!!! Anyway, because its my Blog and I can do what I want, I just stopped editing. It is what it is - some questions got answered, and the rest are answered in the text below. At least there is a bit of 'Vibe' footage from the outdoor thing. Shakey, and the sound is pretty rough, but it gives you an idea of how cool it was to do.

We did Suffragette City, Roadhouse Blues and Crackerman outside. The inside set can be found over on Daves 6767 blog. (I am just being lazy here - it will ALL be up on the new Camp Freddy site, which will be launched at the beginning of next month). The whole trip was so much fun. Any opportunity to climb up the outside of a building and strap on a guitar should be seized with enthusiasm. A big thanks to everyone who showed up, even those who were a little, shall we say, disgruntled at the lack of volume. What I have to explain is that our hands are tied when it comes to these kind of events. Not only was it a corporate thing, so Camp Freddy has little say in how it goes down, this outside thing was also subject to a myriad of City Ordinances, Noise Restrictions, Time Restraints ..... I mean it was contracted up the ass!!! So it was impossible to do anything but what we did. Saw the DEEZ NUTS and the 6767 banners - MOST impressive!!! And nice to meet a couple of you after the show - hope to see you again.

Lisa - Surrender was chosen because we only had one song to perform in Vegas and we wanted all six members to be a part of the show. That song is sung by Scott Weiland but Donovan does a verse and all the harmonies, so it seemed like the right song to get both our singers in on the action. Plus Duff was along for the ride and he knows that one on guitar. Simple. Selection made.

Mary - Balancing Art and Commerce is a great question. I can tell you that when I am writing music, the commerce part is nowhere to be found. You HAVE to write what turns you on - what gives you goosebumps - what makes the hair stand up on the back of YOUR neck. Now, once that bit is done, THEN you can think about how to proceed. If it makes money, great. But if it doesnt, you can then stand by your music and know it means something to you. With regards to Camp Freddy, we have built it slowly for years, and have made sure that WE have fun at all times. Thats why we dont just go on tour and play the same show every night for a month. It keeps it fun, fresh and ever-changing. The commerce part is bonus.

Spencer - My pre-show routine consists of smoking, drinking coffee, and wishing that all the people that I don't know would GET OUT OF OUR DRESSING ROOM!!!! Its usually pretty hectic in there before a show, and while I understand that a dirty, tiny, smelly room in the back of a venue must be very appealing to a lot of people, I wish they would wait until AFTER the show to come and hang out!!! There's not much time for a 'routine' - no prayers, huddles, chants or ritual chicken slaying for me - I just wait until someone tells me its time to go.

I am SO glad that everyone is liking the new Community. It did come out looking rather fancy!! Rik @ Rated Art is responsible for that. Cheers mate. And our very own Jay seems to be overseeing the vibe rather well, and you lot are having a ball in there. It makes me happy. We WILL do exclusive stuff only available for REGISTERED members, so make sure you sign up. Oh, and while I remember, many thanks to Sweet Soul Sister who sent me the JPG below. A nice pic of Dave and I from the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame thing that we went to with Ozzy and his family.

An all new CFR tonight with Dave and myself - it'll be great to get back in the radio saddle after a week off - tune in if you can, tonight between 6pm and 8pm on Indie 103.1FM. And immediately afterwards, I'm gonna drive down to Palm Desert for a day - no reason, except to get a day of Spa appointments, sunshine, and Easter Food!!!! Apologies for the abrubtly terminated V Blog today - I literally couldnt edit anymore. My eyes were blurry, my head ached from staring at the screen, and the damn thing was 5 minutes long already!! Anyone still on dial up will be there next week downloading the thing!! So I just stopped. Ah....whatever ..... I tried. So I am out of here. I want to wish everyone a VERY HAPPY EASTER. Have a relaxing time and eat all the ...... er......Easter Food(?!) ....... What IS Easter Food? Is it Turkey? Roast Beef? Ding Dongs? Someone enlighten me!!!! Whatever it is, eat tons of it, get fat, pass out on the couch, and do nothing. Ah Holidays .... dontcha just love em .....

Peace

THE 'ONE SONG' V BLOG

Coming at ya from my hotel room in New York, and edited on the flight from LA earlier today, I bring you an all new V Blog!! Usual large file size etc applies. I couldn't put the song up there, because after all, it was for a TV show. It airs on the Spike network on April 18th, and it was part of a show called Autorox. Some amazing cars, some cool rock and roll, and a really good vibe. The whole weekend was a lot of fun. We rolled into Vegas late friday afternoon, and went straight over to the TV show thing. One run through of the song, and we were ready to go. A bit of hair and make up, and we were up. One song - Surrender - and that was that. Ice Cube, Pam Anderson, and a bunch of very important looking car industry guys were all on hand, watching us from the side of the stage. I think we did a good job - I suppose we just have to check it out on the 18th to see if I'm right!! By the way, how many times did I need to mention that it was one song??!!! I must have been struck by that fact, cos I mention it in every segment I filmed!!!

The rest of the weekend was spent relaxing at the ridiculously nice Wynn Hotel and Casino - that place is just ..... so ..... right! I mean, they even have their own bakery on site, making fresh croissants and all kinds of carbohydrate nastiness - of course, I indulged in all of it!!! Hanging out by the pool, checking out the Poker game (hosted by Dave), and hitting the crazy Maxim 100th Issue Party in the hotel club, Tryst. It all combined to make for a great weekend.

Unpack. Repack. Another plane flight. And here I am in New York. I just got back from the Chrome Hearts party that we hit up tonight - a cool, laid back affair in their New York flagship store. Tons of crazy jewelry, leather and wood - all custom made. Great people, great food. Another good night out. I turned in fairly early (for New York anyway - its about midnight right now) as I wanted to get through a few emails, and this blog, before hitting the sack. I got this picture emailed to me just now from CFR last week - Jason and Gilby (from Supernova) were great guests, and that was a really good show. We will have to make sure we have those guys back once the season is in full swing.

I will be at it again tomorrow with the camera - and this time I WILL do the questions ..... probably tomorrow morning over coffee and cigarettes and before the day gets crazy. And I'll edit up a New York V Blog when I get back to LA on Thursday. "Do I hear you right, Mr Morrison??".... I hear you cry ..... "Two V Blogs in one week???" ..... Oh yes, my faithful compadres, THIS is the kind of commitment we have around here!!! Its a little busy right now, but I know it will all calm down in a few days, and I'll be back to tweaking away all day. For now, I feel King Kong coming on ..... STOP THAT!!! The movie, I mean. I'm gonna chill, put the DVD on, and let the travelling slowly slip away. Back soon, kids.

Oh - and here's the breaking news ...... the new CIRCUS DIABLO COMMUNITY is up and running. Check it out at WWW.CIRCUSDIABLO.COM. Oh yeah. Or, for your convenience, just simply click on the box to the right of this post that says ..... wait for it ...... THE COMMUNITY!!!!

....IN THE HIZZY!!!

Its a quickie cos I need to leave for Vegas. Wanted to get these pics up from last nights DJ escapades!! I really did have a lot of fun. Big thanks goes to 'The Girls' who turned up to support the debut DJ appearance by Yours Truly. Hope you all had fun. I gotta tell you that I could end up doing that again. I got the hang of it really quickly, and loved being able to play anything I wanted. I kept turning it up, so that the usual complaint of "Its not loud enough" didnt apply, and even messed about with the whole 'scratchy scratchy look at me I'm a DJ' thing!! I do, however, have a new found respect for the Pro DJ's of this world, as playing records is one thing ..... making it seamless, appropriate and being a showman at the same time?.... THATS another. I'll be leaving that to the Pro's. Oh yeah - and dealing with drunk people asking you if you can play The Rolling Stones, or if you havent got that, how about a bit of Celine Dion???!!!!! - GO AWAY!!!
Big thanks to Geoff Thomas, who was the guy actually throwing the party, to launch his new line of custom (and SICK!!!!) jewelry - check out the pic of the gold ring that he made for me ..... I am telling you, THIS is the guy to see if you want original, one of a kind BLING. Check out his site from the links on the side of the page.

Gotta get outta here - all the way to Vegas today for one song - its for Spike TV and it airs this month sometime. I'll get a date and time when I'm there. And I am going to stay in Vegas and do the whole Maxim Magazine party thats going on all weekend at The Wynn. Never stayed there before, so I am excited to check the hotel out. I think an afternoon at the Spa will be on the menu, plus a lot of laying around enjoying a day off - or maybe I'll just drop the life savings on red and see what happens. Video camera is packed, so hopefully I can finally get around to knocking up another V-Blog. I'll take the computer and maybe do it up while I'm there. If not, I'll edit it all after New York. Thanks to everyone who sent in their Tattoo Pics - keep em coming ..... I want a huge Morrison Tattoo Gallery up in here! And thanks again to everyone who came last night. Believe it or not, I was nervous to start with, but having people around helped, and I settled in to a fun night. Hope you had fun too.

Off I go - Peace

WEDNESDAY

It's midway through the week, and so far its been pretty good. This morning, Circus Diablo are doing a feature interview and cover photoshoot for a new magazine that will be hitting the streets in June. The magazine will be called "Strutter" and it will be a glossy monthly rock and roll type affair. Afterwards, we have a business meeting with someone, and after that, I'm gonna hit the new addiction in my life - the Chiropractor!! This guy does some wacked out shit to me - acupuncture, electrolysis, suction cups .... followed by an adjustment. You know, that thing where they grab your neck and violently twist it so that the bones make the sound of a man falling down a ladder!!! I've recently started going, and its pretty cool - I come out feeling high!!

Monday night was Hedwig And The Angry Inch at the Roxy Theatre on the Strip. Our boy Donovan is starring in the production, so Ricky, Duffy and myself headed down to see him do his thing. Everyone was out, and the Roxy was buzzing. The musical itself is great - the songs are really cool, Bijou Philips does an awesome job as Dono's sidekick, and Donovan was just born into the role of Hedwig .... a transexual singer with a botched sex job that leaves him with an 'angry one inch' of skin between his legs!!! If you wanna see Mr Leitch sing his ass off, wearing nothing but a pair of Calvins and some angel wings, get your tickets now!!!

Oh - before I forget, todays pic is a scan from the current issue of 944 Magazine. There is a really cool feature on Rock And Roll photography, and the pic of me and Brett is very cool. Lots of other great Rock pictures, including Donovan, Dave, Slash. And the magazine is a good one too - just FYI. And another random thought while I'm at it. Earlier this morning, we had a weird time anomaly ..... at two minutes and three seconds past one oclock this morning, the date and time read like this - 01:02:03 04/05/06 ...... that will only happen once every thousand years. Dont ever say that this blog isn't educational!!!

I'll be getting my music together later today for the DJ gig I have down in Santa Monica tomorrow. I am actually really looking forward to it. I've never done it before, and will probably need to figure out the technical side of it (I've seen Public Enemy shows .... how hard can it be??!!!) but I have tons of good music lined up, and I've been practicing tucking one side of the headphones between my ear and my shoulder!!! "Boo Yakka Shah me breddren .... massive respec' to the Mailibu Massive in da House!!!"

Thumper - Circus Diablo will tour, yes. But it will be towards the end of the year, when we can fit it in with everyone's schedules. Glad you are enjoying the Ants Invasion track. There's more where that came from !!

Spencer - I dont really have a pre-show routine. I stretch a bit, smoke tons of cigarettes, and warm my fingers up if I think about it. Its more about just getting up onstage and getting things kicked off. Post show routine is get outta there as quick as I can, grab some food, and get back home or to the hotel!

Matt - All news of New York is now off limits!! We have been told we are not allowed to talk about it, cos its a private party, and they have permit restrictions etc. So its back to not being able to confirm or deny, blah blah blah!!!!!

Shit. The time ran away from me - there's more I wanna say but I have to get ready, so it'll have to wait. Have a great day and see y'all soon.

Peace

Billy
