Being A Fiona Apple Fan Is A Virtue

                                    Spring has come & gone and still...no new album.
                                      I blame it on Michelle Branch.  Yup. I said it.



     Had Michelle not told the press that Fiona's new unreleased material was so GREAT
               just maybe more people would have been excited about the Buddy Holly
                                                    cover she did instead.






Taco Bell With A Raveonette





   One April night, Rossing & I went out to play our weekly game of pool @ Dibbo's. 
   After the game, my boy asked me to stop by Taco Bell before I dropped him off @ home. 
   Cool.
   When we arrived.....
   We noticed a tour bus @ the gas station across the street so we checked it out. 
   Standing right outside the bus door talking to some guy was the lead singer of The Raveonettes. 
   Nice. 
   Love that band.  So much so that I had a Raveonettes button on my visor.  
   I pulled up next to the singer and pulled my button down and showed it to him. 
   He looked at me like " Meh ".   Alrighty then.  Take care, guy. 


  On to Taco Bell. 
 Where the gas station is located and the location of the drive-thru is, it's like a candy cane. The bus' location being the top of the cane and the drive-thru being the very end if the cane.
We wrapped around TB and pulled into the drive thru and wouldn't you know it, just standing in front of the intercom ( attempting to order food-funny ) with the drummer was Ms. Sharin Foo.  
I asked them if they were interested in sitting in the back so they could order. 
They agreed.
A couple of soft shell steak taco's and a autograph later, Rossing & I dropped her back off at the tour bus.  

50/50
