Proof that I’ve ALWAYS been sexi.
Check you’re boy out in the bright pink hot pants… TOTAL stud!
My brother, Brad “The Bishop” Thompson, dug this photo up of he and I just moments before sacrificing and subsequently eating another child. Good times. Ah, to be young again!

I’m sure I’ve posted this before…
…but it’s worthy of a re-post!
Most of you know that I’m a DIE-HARD “CANdYRAT Records” fan, and certainly a huge Steffen Schackinger fan! This video is a year and some change old on YouTube and it NEVER gets old!
So, without further ado, I give you ElectriGuitaristry by Steffen Schackinger: (album available here)

NEW VIDEO: Slingin’ axe @ the Fant-Ewing Coliseum
Not an update, but hopefully this will do! This was taken by Jack, in the crowd at a SRT show at the Fant-Ewing Coliseum @ ULM.
This place was BONKERS! The joint holds 7,100 people… and every seat was sold in the place!!! Needless-to-say it was a CRAZY show!
Just some things here and there in the life of your favorite, lovable, portly, guitar-slingin’, Irish-man: Slimtronic5000!
Ah, the life of a Mock Star!!

They tried to take the “Big Dog” down with hot sauce?!?
Please, ladies and gents, make no mistake: I’m raw nasty. Whilst enjoying a nice “breakfast for dinner” at a Greek Diner on the road in Tampa, FL with Urban D himself, my comrades felt the urge to dare me to take a shot of their hot sauce…
I laughed… folks, it takes more than that to take the Big Dog down!!
The shot looks smaller in this picture than it actually was in “real life”:
Not wanting to make the challenge simple, I decided to gargle the hot sauce for a few moments, just to prove a point:
Again, not wanting to leave any in the cup, your boy decided to slurp the rest out with a straw, milkshake style:
Magic Mike’s face is priceless:

Thoughts from the road…
Our show last night in Columbus, GA was EPIC!! What a blast! We hardly ever play for a crowd that doesn’t just completely get crazy and last night was no exception.
Met a ton of new fans and friends, played some good music, sold some sweet merch, and ate some good food!
Seriously though, of all the towns I’ve played in, this has to be one of THE MOST hospitable! Not just the people from the venue, the crowd and the people that work at our hotel… but EVERYONE! People actually let you in the lane in traffic, they all smile and wave, and they all make it a point to tell you to have a great day! Good people, for reals.
We played two back-to-back shows at a local school this morning.. I LOVE playing school shows! These kid NEVER expect to walk into their gym and see a full-on rock show, complete with an axe-slinging fat man! PLUS they never really ever get to have stuff like that… keeps ‘em talking about it for the rest of the year!
It was a good time hanging with these kids… PLUS it was a good way to promote our last local show tomorrow night… hopefully we’ll see a bunch of these kids out there tomorrow!!
Off to take a nap now… sleeping is pretty sucky if you’re lady aint there with you!
Peace,

(p.s.: Scope my sweet beard!)
