Nick Oliveri came up here to Alaska over the 4th of July weekend, and I got to hit 3 of his 4 acoustic/electric shows, documenting the whole thing.

he had the 'raw demos' for this album which we rocked out to driving between Wasilla and Tonsina, and they should be dropboxed to me any day now.

if you're fans of Nick, and want to check out a new project (they recorded music before he got on the plane), check out on 'Chickbook' (what I call Facebook)

he sat in with Toucher on a Kinks tuned, and belted out some Misfits lyrics on another sit-in earlier in the day on the 4th, other than that, it was pretty standard, OTHER THAN he totalled his Mercedes 10 days earlier and had the staples removed during his stay.


was privvy to a LOT of 411 re: Brant vs. Josh, and it's not mentionable on a public forum (kinda like 'bootlegs' are here, I guess), but lets just say that I wish VC well, and am missing them by days in November.
