I had a pretty good weekend planned out. I really did. I was gonna start Friday night out by heading down to the Cheyenne Saloon to catch my Nephew DJ Chis opening up for Sen Dogg from Cypress Hill there, and then after that was finished I was gonna head to Vamp'd to catch Green Jelly and the Vermin, which I had been hyping my friends about all week. Problem was, a certain band I wanted nothing to do with was opening the gig, a fact that I only found out about when the flyer was finally made available to the public 2 days before the gig. Yeah, I know. Don't get me started. So I told my friends I wouldn't be at the gig, and they tried to talk me into going anyways, but I stood my ground and stayed away. After over sleeping and missing out on my Nephews set, I decided to pursue other non-musical endeavors that evening. Totally worth it too. :-) Saturday was my plan was all about Football and seeing Nick Razor and G.F.I. @ the Cheyenne Saloon that night, who were playing with Guilty By Association and Rule Of Thumb, I think. Anyways, just like before, a few days before the gig I find out that another band I want nothing to do with are playing the gig that night, and even though they are notorious for booking gigs and not showing up to them, I again decided to stay away and avoid the possibility of any Drama. Again, I got better things to do. Like eat, drink and be merry! :-) So I started the day out with Jeremy testing out some bass pedals he picked up from Cowtown Guitars, and then it was off to Jesse & Roxie's to watch the game. After watching the Raiders lose to the 40-Whiners I went home with a belly full of enchiladas and a better disposition to deal with the Drama I had waiting for me there. And to do laundry. Yup. Fun stuff. Speaking of fun stuff, think this pretty much says it all. I love the title of the email - reads like a newspaper headline! hee hee hee This Gilbert Astrada dude is in serious trouble! ;-) And please note that he sent a copy of the email to "702cop112", but yet tells me if I don't comply with his wishes he will turn the matter over to Metro when, apparently, he already has. Cute. GILBERT ASTRADA CAUGHT VANDALIZING LOCAL BUSINESS Mark Hornsby [email protected] to ge138, 702cop112 show details Sunday August 21 11:31 PM (15 minutes ago) Hi Gilbert Astrada~ My name is Mark and I have you on video surveillance tagging my club up with your stickers. In the real world that's called VANDALISM and it's against the law. You obviously didn't look up at any of the 15 cameras I have in my bar. The date was on Sunday, August 14 2011. I suggest you come in and explain why this happened to me or this will be turned over to metro and you can explain to them. You have 48 hours to get this handled or it will be dealt with legally. Truly. *M Mark Hornsby MHC (LLC) Yeah, I don't think I'll be supporting the Cheyenne Saloon anytime in the future, to say the least, which is just fine. I got better things to do and if he's serious about pursuing this legally, then I guess we'll go that route. He told his Cop friend. I told my Lawyer. We'll see how this plays out. :-) Ahhhhhhh, such a beautiful Monday morning. I think I'll go out and enjoy it and see what kind of mischief I can get into. Pretty quiet week musically, with the weekend having only one must see gig, that being the Mapes / Maxies gig @ the Motor City Cafe. If you're feeling brave you can venture out to Hendertucky to see the Tinglerz, but I wouldn't advise it, and neither does my Lawyer. :-) There's some Thrash shows @ the Sanctuary, Yayo, the Bunkhouse, whatever, happening this weekend, and you can check out the Gig Calendar page for all the info, and then there's that Butthole Surfers gig happening @ the Palms on Sunday, which, I dunno, just bums me out to no end. The last time I saw the Butthole Surfers, they were playing a big stage, during their MTV Alternative Nation moment in the sun, and they seemed kind of lost up there, and it definitely didn't feel like a Butthole Surfers gig from where I was standing. Good but not Essential like it used to be. I can't imagine it will be any different at the Palms. Oh well. Could just be the 'Old Guy' in me, but I'd rather not see it. Have fun if you're going though. :-) Everything's updated, all the Pictures from the Pentagram / Pigasus / Dead Neon / Demon Lung / 21 Strong gig @ the Cheyenne are up, and hopefully they won't be the last pictures I take there but if they are, oh well. :-) I got some video from that night too, and I'll upload that later.

Remember when the Boston accused Pit of throwing the chair through the window, said they had seen him do it and when the called me to bitch, I swore till the bitter end that they were wrong, they didn't see him do it?

FUCK MARK HORNSBY,The Cheyenne Saloon has always supported all bands that has played there all these years, and to prove that we allowed them to put their stickers on the back door in the sound booth, it showed the band had played the Cheyenne and it made the bands feel that they were welcomed because to some of the bands it was an honor to play there along with all the National acts that has played there.to them it made them feel special it made them feel like part of the elite. the best, because they played there, so what if they put stickers on the wall it is a tradition not VANDALISM and that is the way it was ment to be " AN HONOR TO HAVE YOUR BAND ON THE WALL OF THE CHEYENNE SALOON " a part of the ELITE.So does that mean that all the posters of upcoming events on the walls VANDALISM its still putting things on the wall or its ok because you did it, your an ASS for doing what your doing MARK, oh I should not of said that, he might sue me for TELLING THE TRUTH...Pull your head out of your ass Mark the world does not revolve around you, your no one special, If you want Respect, you better give it.......

My comment regarding Mark Hornsby . You think that's bad. He 86'd his oldest sister from the cheyenne saloon. (For no reason at all) . Talk about sue happy. Mark said he's going to sue her for slander if she speaks to anyone at the cheyenne saloon. He was telling his own family he owns the bar. Now he saying he sold the bar. Why would someone lie so much? He's a disgrace to everyone. It's obvious he doesn't want word getting out to anyone regarding what he did to that bar. Now that his sister goes to the bar he is worried, and he is now 86'd ! What goes around comes around. It's called karma! Support the Cheyenne Saloon, we can keep the place alive now that he's gone.

Wowsers! Talk about a control freak! LOL Yeah, I know the true story about Mark NEVER owning the bar but yet he was telling everyone that he sold the bar back to the original owners or whatever - what a delusional fool! ha ha ha I hope that Karma takes a huge bite out of his ass and the Reality finally catches up to him. :-)
