MOVING AND SHAKING
Its a quick Saturday morning update from me - how is everyone doing this fine morning? Camp Freddy Radio will be live from the LA Erotica Convention tonight (and although I know that Dave will be doing it, I have no idea if Matt or Donovan will be joining him. My attempts to understand whats happening today have been fruitless, as no one seems to know!!!) So tune in and see what happens. I know that I will not be doing it, but I'm sure it'll be the usual fun and frolics with Mr Navarro at the helm!! I'm sure Paul will be recording for the Podcast Page. And just FYI - there is some movement with the August shows, and I am attempting to get the final details from management. I know that we are moving the LA show to be the last show, and I know that we are gonna drop a couple of shows, and move the others. Also, we might add another LA event, so basically the dates up on the site are SUBJECT TO CHANGE. I know its frustrating (as it is for us too) but we will get it all sorted out soon and you will be the first to know. I can tell you that we are booked in for some solid rehearsal time in July which we are all looking forward to - it will be great to get locked in a room with four other guys for a week, and get all hot and sweaty ...... hold on a minute ...... that sounds disgusting!!!! You get my drift - we'll be able to turn the cellphones off, and get down to the business of sounding like a rock band. Nice!! Oh yeah - and as you will see from www.circusdiablo.com, our new drummer is JEREMY COLSON. Please welcome him into the fold over at The Community (and be nice!!). Jeremy has just spent three years as Steve Vai's drummer, and was also in Apartment 26. He is a super nice guy, and a powerhouse behind the kit. Glad to have you in the fold, mate.
Dennis - The Ozzfest thing is just a nice hang for me. I am friends with the family, and try and go out with them to a few shows. Not as a performer!! But its still a good rock and roll vibe and I love those guys.
Junebug - Funnily enough, we have a couple of quick getaways planned!! Vacation is the name of the game, although Jen and I are both crazy busy, so we don't get a lot of opportunity to do that.
QQQ - GREAT tip. It shall be Tivo'd.
Right, on with the weekend. Guitars over the hill to my guru man, Brett Allan. Its been a while since I had them set up, and they are all playing like shit right now!! But Brett will weave his voodoo magic on them all and have them back to me next week like new!!! Oh yeah - and Camp Freddy will be taping The David Spade Show next wednesday. Not sure when it airs, and of course I will let you know details once they tell me - but it should be fun. I believe that David will be singing with us!! Ah YEAH!!! Now we is movin' UP!!! Thats it from me - hope to see some of you in Vegas next Saturday. Its shaping up to be a great show. Until next time - love y'all and see ya when I'm looking at you!!!
Peace
Billy

Hey Billy,
If you get tired of being locked in a room for a week with four other guys getting all hot and sweaty, give me a call, I'll trade places with you.
Love David Spade, would like to be at that taping!!!

Now this is an interesting question-CD will be rehearsing in July (yea yea hot sweaty guys locked in a room I get it...so when Beth needs a break I will gladly take her place...) BUT looking at the X's website Mr. Scallions "other" music venture is set to play the "Funky Munky lounge" (isn't that a great name for a bar??) on July 8th. NOW this joint is literally within walking distance of my casa. So how could the NY Diablettes not go and check them out.
So will Brett be there?
Wish I could make the Vegas CF/TPC gig :-( But sadly 2 Vegas trips in one month is not in my bank account. Sounds like it's gonna be a blast!

Hey Billy, you guys should get the podcasts up on iTunes. Surely if Navarro can get his up there you could.

Jeremy Colson is a great choice for your drummer!
