A FACE MADE FOR RADIO!

UPDATE: NEW CIRCUS DIABLO LIVE TRACK AVAILABLE ON MYSPACE.COM. Check out the bands MySpace profile and hear a live version of 1970 from the recent Key Club show.CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO THE NEW LIVE TRACK.
So the return of Navarro to CFR after his summer of TPC/Supernova showed me that I do really love doing radio. When its on, it really is on, and I come away from two hours of Camp Freddy Radio feeling much the same as after a live show! - tired, but happy, adreneline levels up ..... strange that radio can do that. Anyway, we had a laugh last night, and our friend Paul captured the magic for us as usual. CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO THE PODCAST.And thank you to Nancy for the nice pic I used today from the Scottsdale show.
Paul - now THATS funny. "I was gonna stop smoking, but I'm not a quitter!!!" Ha!! And yeah - I would close this blog down if it got like that - I wanna be able to actually relate to all you guys.
Robin - Gotta tell you, it was HARD!! Watching Dave smoke (and hearing that ubiquitous 'Bic' crack every five minutes!) was tough - but I have never been that guy to say dont do it. Dave was completely respectful and asked if I minded if he smoked, and of COURSE I said no. And I dont. How can I quit if I have to be in smoke free environments??? I play rock and roll for a living!!!!
ZenTam - YEAH!!! Go Raiders. Just try not to embarrass your fans TOO much this year!! But we'll love you anyway!
MB - No plans for Diablo right now, until our manager gets back from Europe and we start the 2007 plan. We know we are doing the Viper and we will probably do something else towards the end of the year.
And thank you SO MUCH to all of you for your non-smoking encouragements. I mean, really, how can I fail with all you lot spurring me on.
Nothing much else to tell you today. Its Sunday, I have a nice relaxing day in front of me - got a friend over from the UK so we'll be going shooting later today. Funny how the fascination with guns is SO much greater in people from countries that don't have em at all. And I'm gonna have a butchers at moviefone ....(butchers hook - LOOK!!) ..... and see if there is a film that both myself AND my wife would like to see. Recently its been ... "I wanna go see Silent Hill ..... No WAY!! I wanna see Devil Wears Prada!!!" .... so maybe there's a flick we can agree on today!! Back during the week. Have a great day everyone.
Peace
Billy

What about (though I haven't seen them yet but I want to...) The Black Dahlia or Hollywoodland. Both look excellent though I think The Black Dahlia got bad reviews (but whoever listens to movie or music critics anyway!) you and the Misses might agree on those...
Well even if you trip up a little on the non-smoking (not that I think you would, we all have faith in you) we would still love and support you anyway. But maaaaaaaaan with a few Freddy dates coming up? Being with Dave AND Scott! Bring lots of chewing gum!
Have a relaxing Sunday Billy and Jenn!

You could watch the Raider game today. But I guess that would be like watching a repeat of last weeks game.
oouuuch!
I had best just shut up since the Cowboys have yet to play tonight.

That's a really great track!
Any chance there's some Pistols-influence in there?:)
(Along with other stuff too, of course.)
If that's the standard this record is gonna be awesome! Can't wait..
