TONIGHT
Jennifer Fitts' Song Swap
----------
Tonight, Wednesday the 17th from 8p-12a, Roger and I will appear at Jennifer Fitts Song Swap at The Slide on Inn (Bering@ Beverly Hill). It's a much more intimate setting for the presentation of our songs, and something us rockers don't often do, so I am looking forward to this.
 
Playing with Jennifer will take us in front of a completely difference audience, and that's real cool!
 
Thanks for inviting us, Jennifer!
 
This weekend I'll videotape Opie at Rudz on Saturday, and help (and videotape) Marlo and Mike with their show at Diverse Works on Sunday.
 
Next weekend, September 26 & 27th, Guy Schwartz and The New JacK Hippies will play three shows in different locations (two on Friday, one Saturday afternoon) at Groove Dawg's Bike Rally in Galveston. It should be a huge event. The blues line-up on Friday includes Texas Johnny Brown, Sherman Robertson, Leonard Lowdown Brown, Andy 'Too hard' Williams and the New Jack Hippies with Gloria Edwards! We'll also do Saturday night at St. Pete's Dancing Marlin.

MICHAEL KNUST - R.I.P.
----------
Damn! We lost another one.
 
Michael Knust was my friend for the past forty years.
 
He was known to the music world as the guitarist for Houston's '60s psychedelia mainstay, FEVER TREE.
 
I was 11 years old when our mutual guitar teacher, Dale Mullins, put Mike in charge of my lessons. He was only a few years older than I, but he was Dale's protege, his prima donna child genius on guitar. Mike was barely a teenager, but, like Dale, he could blow anybody away with his renditions of many Chet Atkins guitar arrangements. Dale was the best, but he knew Michael was even better.
 
When The Beatles hit the Ed Sullivan Show, Michael was struck with the idea that one could play guitar WITH other people, in a band setting. He taught one of our fellow students, Bud Wolf, to play bass. His band was really good. The Bostwick Vines used to borrow my PA for gigs. This was back in the day that a PA could be two Atlas Banshee horns powered by a Bogen 35watt amp with two phone jacks for microphones. No monitors? Hell  - there were no woofers! We were proud to help. We were tripped out that we had any kind of connection to a cool band.
 
My band, The Sovereigns (co-founded and named by Jimmy Raycraft), consisted (that week) of David Wintz (founder of Robin Guitars), John Elsley (famous maritime attorney), Chuck Carey (Where IS Chuck?) and I. We ALL took guitar lessons from Dale Mullins and Michael Knust, at Dale little studio in Spring Branch (a suburb of Houston), where Jeff Well's Sound Arts Studio stands today. I lived three blocks south, and Knust lived three blocks west of Dale's studio, so we were all there often.
 
Jim Mast and Jerry Campbell and Don Lampton were in and out of their band back then, but they didn't last. Rob Landes was added. The cream always rises...
 
Scott & Vivian Holtzman began working with The Vines, and before I knew it, they were called Fever Tree, and had a big record deal. Hits and fame followed.
 
'San Fransisco Girls' was a huge hit. Michael got a piece of it, because he was one of the writers. But those pieces don't last forever, and after several years of carving thier place into the history of the world and music of '60s psychedelia, Fever Tree fell apart, leaving Michael Knust to be the one who remained playing rock and blues.
 
He often resurrected Fever Tree, with varying line-ups, and had many other bands, too. The best rehash versions of Fever Tree probably came in '77 with Sreamin' Kenny and in '79 with original members John Tuttle on drums and Dennis Keller on vocals. I don't know how much this version played out, but they rehearsed at my house and kicked major butt.
 
Most of the other bands in which he played recieved little or no acclaim. The rest recieved no notice at all.
 
The most legendary of these could have been The Ark, a trio featuring Stevie Webb on drums and Jerry Lightfoot on bass. The held forth from Marin County California. There's a tape out on the internet of this band. They were good. Webb's gone now, too.
 
I played in a couple of these post-Fever tree bands with Michael. There was the band which had the members of Ark with me on bass, and Lightfoot on guitar. We hardly gigged. Short sweaty rehearsals and then morphine.
 
There was a great jazz fusion band we had with Tony Taboada on keys and Stevie Webb on drums. It was some of the finest music I've ever made with anyone. It was during this time that Michael did a guest shot on an album by my progressive rock band, Relayer. Relayer still gets more action on the web from people seeing Michael's name there on a websearch, than any other search word.
 
Special Forces, with Keith York on drums, was a standout.
 
Michael and I played together as we backed up Jimmy Reed, John lee Hooker and Lightning Hopkins at Liberty Hall. We had much musical fun and adventure. Michael taught me how to pre-amp my guitar, how to jump a cable from one amp to another, the use of stereo echo....
 
Knust, Webb and I also did many bar gigs as a trio in the late '70s, but my association with them always ended with me upset over my childhood idol's nodding out at the gig. Funny thing was, Michael Knust falling backwards in a chair as he nodded on some good dope, was still better than most guitar players I had ever seen or heard.
 
I wasn't ever upset that he blew the gig. He never blew the gig.
 
I was upset that he blew his potential.
 
He was my childhood idol. I wanted him to rebound and show the world.
 
And I was always upset enough to tell him.
 
Sometimes, that meant he wouldn't call for a while.
 
He straightened out for a good while, but a series of car.bike wrecks and physical pain earned him the prescription pain pills which pulled him back down. He really battled it hard, but he was a very weak, kind, simple and gentle man. He was in sooo much pain. He didn't stand a chance.
 
He should have held the spot in history that Stevie Vaughn holds. Michael was Jimi's successor. Even Jimi thought so. He gave him a pink stratocaster to show it. Michael had the same combinations of Texas, Hendrix, rock and blues which put Stevie on top. Ted Nugent said that Mike was one of only three guitarists in the world who could get a pure distortion sustain on his guitar and totally control it.
 
Mike was a gentle soul, and never meant anyone any harm. His famous battles with drugs often left those close to him in the lurch, but he didn't mean any harm. I wanted to scream at him - "Goddammit, Michael, if I had half the talent you have in your little finger...."
 
I wish I could scream at him now.

COLONOSCOPY
Way Off-Topic
----------
The St. Lukes Charitable organization called Friday to tell me they have approved the funds for the hospital. They called yesterday to tell me of the doctor, a man who has volunteered to do pro bono (free) work, who has been assigned to me, and that I have been set up for an 'intial consultation' which I will go to in a few hours.
 
This doctor will be the first man (or woman) ever to place and manipulate any type of device into my anus. I'm ready for that.
 
What I don't know is whether there will be any devices or anal entries at today's 'initial consultation'.
 
An 'initial consultation' doesn't sound THAT bad, does it?
 
He probably won't stick anything up my butt today, at this 'initial consultation'.
 
Or...
 
Maybe he will! This is the man my new internist (my 'regular doctor') has sent me to. I hadn't been to a doctor in over a decade. My new regular doctor put his hand in my ass last month. Maybe they ALL do it from here on in.
 
Probably not.
 
I figure that an intial consultation will involve a desk at the most. The doctor will sit in the big chair behind the desk and tell me some doctorly stuff as he asks me some medical questions and browses through my medical file. He'll find out which prescription medicines I currently take, and then ask about my family medical history. No big deal - the initial consultation will be held at a desk!
 
A conference table, at worst!
 
The gastro-neurologist is named Dr. Muhammed Al-Hussein.
 
What a country the USA is. If only the common man in the middle east could understand this side of America. Dig what just happened -
 
In America, this christian charity has arranged for the arab-american doctor to help an american jew at the episcopal hospital.
 
I have great confidence in this doctor I don't know. After all, he's on the staff of St. Lukes, and on the staff at Kelsey-Seybold. He must be a good-hearted man, if he volunteers to do pro bono work on broke people in need (like me).
 
Besides - what are the odds that this guy is a one-man medical terrorist secret cell, hiding out in his everyday doctor job.... silently waiting... and waiting... until the charity sends him an American of Jewish descent. He could be recently activated by a code word in Osama Bin-Laden's most recent video, and is now ready to carve unnecessary cuts into the colon of this unsuspecting infidel.
 
It'll never happen.
 
There's no martyrdom in making unnecessary secret cuts into somebody's colon, infidel or not.
