I love that picture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I really love that guitar too, i wish i had one that looked like that. My guitar is black.
So, how did band practice go?
Got the next gig lined up yet???
Practice went really well, plus we watched a tape of the gig and it wasn't as bad as I feared. The music wasn't bad at all, the main thing was we were all kind of stiff and still and need to loosen up. We don't have another lined up yet, but we should soon.
Posted by: krix on June 14, 2004 02:54 PMWell they seem to be off to a good start...it was a good first gig and they are off and running. I'm sure they'll have another gig, it's just a matter of time...well...and practice LOL! Good luck you guys!
Posted by: shelz on June 14, 2004 03:21 PMHappy to hear that, krix! Yippee!

Posted by: Nudel on June 14, 2004 04:29 PMyou're a bunch of stiffs? LOL I'm sure once you all get used to playing in a crowd you'll get over it. Goodluck, krix! :)

Happy to hear the show was better than you thought it was. You'll loosen up once you have a few shows under your belt. Whatever you do, don't get as loose as pelvis thrusting Juliette Lewis! That just looks plain wierd [although the guys in the crowd might have a different opinion about that].

Posted by: sta-cie on June 14, 2004 05:41 PMAccording to a special I saw VH1 two weeks ago, Ronnie James Dio (Black Sabbath) started that "throwing the goat" hand signal. He said it was something his Grandma used to do around the house. It's an Italian symbol for warding off the evil eye.
Posted by: Smit too on June 14, 2004 07:10 PMlove to come to your next show krix... looking forward to it! you know what they say... practice makes perfect! pic above is awesome!
Posted by: wanda on June 14, 2004 10:45 PMGreat to hear about your gig and all going well, Krix. I had fingers crossed for you.
Has anyone a clue re: when the photo above was taken? He looks, like, 11. I know he has never really looked his age, but seriously.
Posted by: bea_herenow on June 15, 2004 03:41 AMDuring the Sideburns Era. I have no idea how long that lasted, or when it was, or even if it was only once...but there is a photoshoot with the 'burns also.

It's one for the money (DUH-duh-duh)
Two for the show (Duh=duh-duh)
Three to get ready, now GO CATS GO...
what do you think about narcissism mr keanu reeves ? have you some suggestion about this !
Posted by: christelle on June 15, 2004 05:01 AMWell...now that I think about it...I don't think it's really a matter of luck for them. I think they're just a tight, together, kind of band...and they will make it in spite of any obstacles. It's because they really want to make it happen...so it will.
Christelle...did you see the entry about Keanu not being narcissistic? He seems to have the whole world at his feet, but he manages to keep his wits about him and maintain his principles. It's one of the things I admire about him.
Posted by: shelz on June 15, 2004 06:15 AMBea herenow, I was also thinking about how particularly young he looks in that photo. I'm sure it was taken quite awhile back, but still, he looks like a young teenager!
I need to find his fountain of youth and start drinking up! LOL
*Does the pelvis shake along with Tabitha*
"And don't you, STEP on my blue-suede... ehm.. 'beige-suede boots'!"
I'm all 'a-swing' now! :-D
*hum-hum-hum* :-)

There's a clean response to this, and a dirty one! But I suspect we're all on the same page... Or am I just a gutter-monger? I guess I can live with that =)
Posted by: bea_herenow on June 15, 2004 08:16 AMBea_herenow,
This photo was taken in the early '90's when Keanu was jamming with Dogstar at a party at a friends house. MTV showed up and filmed a little bit of Dogstar playing. Later on, MTV ran a segment on Dogstar (using what they had filmed) on the MTV News portion of their show (something about Actors In Bands). So, by my count Keanu's around 26-27 ish here. Approximately. Cute photo nonetheless. :)
