Hello, I've waited here for you
Everlong
Tonight, I throw myself into
And out of the red
Out of her head, she sang



Come down and waste away with me.

Down with me.

Slow how

You wanted it to be.

I'm over my head

Out of her head, she sang




The Mitten redefined Awesome tonight.

Holy Mother of Moses, can Stanette sing.



She can bring it like I ain't ever seen it brung.

Sing it like it ain't been sung.

Can't remember when I had that much fun.

Do you know what it was?

It was fierce.



And then it got fiercer.



And just when you thought the ferocity was as ferocious as it could be...

It got even fiercer.

Maybe even the fiercest.



Do you know what I need?

A huge-ass gong on a stand with a monstrous mallet.

I would put it in the middle of my living room, and if you started to piss me off, I would get up and just whale on that thing.

((((((((((((((GONG))))))))))))))))

And I would shave my head and wear saffron robes.

Because that's just how I roll.



Our replica of Stonehenge was in danger of being trod upon by dwarves.

Speaking of which, I think I need to recruit a dwarf to hang with my posse.

Because, again, that's how I roll.



We didn't think to take much of video, but we did take a little bit.



That is only a taste, and, honestly, does not do her voice justice.

I am telling you...

We ran through Crazy, Melissa, Jane Says, Rockin in the Free World, Steal My Kisses (which was off the freakin' hook), Honky Tonk Women, Dead Flowers, and a bunch more.

It was fun fun fun until daddy took my T-Bird away.

Get this:

My sister emailed me.

When I am going to be in LA next month, Tenacious D is playing a gig.

Do you think non-stop rocking is possibe?

I will run through a brick wall to see that show.

And I wonder

When I sing along with you

If anything could ever feel this real forever

If anything could ever be this good again.

The only thing I ever ask of you, you gotta promise not to stop when I say when.

Made you come clean in a dirty dress

Hello, Saturday, you saucy little tart.

You salacious, delicious, devilish day.

Saturday. The Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the week.

True, that.

Double true.

Thoughts and prayers go out to my dear friend, Husker and his family.

His mom is losing a tough battle with cancer.

I guess it is time.

They moved her to hospice today.

Give her a hug, Lar.

She did a mighty fine job raising a son.

My heart goes out to you and your family, big fella.
