Ski Texas!

It's been 20 years since we had any real snow down here in San Antonio. This shot is from 1985. My buddy Mike Goos and I had just returned from skiing in Ruidoso, New Mexico and we got snowed-in at his folks place out by Natural Bridge Caverns. We spent the better part of that day skiing down the hill on 3009 which was closed for two days. This song always reminds me of Skiing in Texas. Song Number Twelve

Miguel Top 5+ Singles 2005

In no particular order, here are my Top 5+ Songs of 2005. This might change as the year ain't quite over yet...

Buttercup: Cutting Dasies from the debut Buttercup lp.

Toby Keith: Good As I Once Was from his pretty decent Honky Tonk U release.

Portastatic: I Wanna Know Girls from Bright Ideas (Mac also released an acoustic version of the official release - Ideas for Bright Ideas. This is the awesome acoustic version.)

The Magic Numbers: Love Is A Game from their cool premier self titled The Magic Numbers album.

Plan To Stay Awake: Deathray Davies from The Kick And The Snare. Go Buy This Now!

Steve Earl: The Revolution Starts Now off of the self titled album.

Now I'm A Stick Figure: John Dufilho fom his first official solo album. Get It Here!

I Love Math: Shape Of The Sum from the yet to be named forthcoming release...

Sir Paul McCartney Jenny Wren, a Rocky Racoon for the new millenium from the amazing Chaos and Creation in the Backyard lp. 25 years ago yesterday, we lost John Lennon. Imagine what a John Lennon album might sound like in 2005. Fucking idiots with guns.

Tiki Bongo: Let's Go Back (2 The Tiki Room) from the hardly antcipated forthcoming Nearest Faraway Place... If you like this you might dig my first Tiki Bongo video: Uh Huh Oh Yeah!

Then again, you might not. Anyway...

Peace,

Miguel

Kahuna Christmas #9

Happy Friday everyone! Here's one of my most favorite Christmas tracks ever. This one is guaranteed to make even the Grinchiest, Scroogeiest Humbugger smile! I love the way it fades out at the end. It's the hands down, number one, fun Christmas song at our house. So from our house to yours, I present to you Kahuna Christmas Song Number Nine

Baby, It's Cold Outside

It's weather like this that makes me want to skip work, stay inside, hang with my honey and drink like Dean Martin while we listen to Kahuna Christmas Song Number Eight...

Bring it on!

So, This is Christmas Song #7

This is a special track for many reasons and should be in everyone's Christmas mix. Tomorrow marks the 25th anniversary of John Lennon's death. One can't help but wonder how many more great songs John had in him had he been givin the chance to simply live his life.

Back in December of 1980 I was a waiter at a place called the Magic Time Machine (a theme restaurant where we wore costumes. I was Bam Bam). I'll never forget getting off of work that mild December night. We (Wayne Kitchen's, King Tut back then, now an attorney) and I were on our way over to a little bar to meet everyone else that worked that night for a drink. On the short drive over we had the radio on 99.5 KISS and they played 2 Beatles songs in a row. As we pulled into the parking lot we heard the sad news. We were shocked as we both just looked at each other in total disbelief.

It wasn't until that night that I realized that the Beatles were much more than just a great band. At the time, I was 19, Wayne was about 26 and John Lennon was 40. Most of the wait staff from the Time Machine were a few years older than I. I remember spending the rest of the tear filled night listening to them talk about John and the Beatles. A few had seen them in concert and most everyone seemed to have some kind of connection with the band or a story that involved a Bealtles song that touched them in some special and positive way.

Now, so did I. Imagine that.

Listen very closely to the super quiet personal intro. I've had several request for this one and so here it is. I'll get back to the more unusual and obscure stuff in the next few days.

We miss you John!
Song Number Seven
