The Gonzo Bonzo Boogie Band

Maybe this one has to happen before "Andromeda Weeps" because there's the cool brand-new Bernie in 2016 shirt and that is seriously needing a video.  There was a bit about this maybe a week ago as the idea for this has some chords and it's some blistering lead.  It can get mechanical doing that but only way to discover for sure how it sounds and I need a tub soak anyway.

This song needs a fedora but the last one (sob) never made it back from Greece.  It was really inexpensive but I don't know where I got it.  Sure got the value since it was around (almost) forever.   It could be crushed all to hell but push it back into general shape and good as new.  Highly excellent cheap-ass hat.

Get a Chinese-made fedora at Walmart and it will probably have viper teeth in the brim which will bite you if you wear it ... either that or spider eggs.  I fookin' hate spiders.

There's an ISIS conspiracy just now to smuggle spider eggs.  They got eggs for the camel spiders and now they import them into US to let them go here where they jump up and bite men in the balls.  They haven't been having much luck using them on politicians, tho.

(Ed:  because the pols are women?)

Well, no.  That wasn't precisely the point.


The Gonzo Bonzo Boogie Band only needs two chords because, wtf, sometimes a song needs a lotta chords and sometimes it don't.  Fuhgedaboudit.

It's not a boogie either.  It's definitely gonzo, tho, even if we don't use ether as a launch vehicle, despite Hunter Thompson's recommendation.  There is no fear and loathing in the Rockhouse.

(Ed:  no loathing?)

Well, ok.  Some loathing.


This may have to happen because "Andromeda Weeps" is going to take some time to work up.  It needs a big production ... lotta chords, see.  It needs more phrases, tho.  I don't mean to be prog rock but I do need dynamics.

(Ed:  will we be hearing the Zen of Andromeda Weeps?)

Yep, prob'ly so.  We need to get to the essence, man.  What is its center.

(Ed:  if you get any more Marin County, we will bomb your ass!)

Always the negative waves, Moriarty.  Always the negative waves.

Nooooo, the one which burned was the Demon Cowboy Hat. That was a righteous torching! (larfs)
