"Sir" Paul


Artist: Paul McCartney
Album: Back in the U.S. Live 2002
Title: Band On The Run

Stuck inside these four walls, sent inside forever,Never seeing no one nice again like you,Mama you, mama you.

If I ever get out of here,Thought of giving it all away To a registered charity.All I need is a pint a day If I ever get out of here. (If we ever get outta here)

Well, the rain exploded with a mighty crash As we fell into the sun, And the first one said to the second one there I Hope you're having fun.
Band On The Run, Band On The Run.And The Jailer Man and Sailor Sam were searching every one For the band on the run, Band on the run, Band on the run, Band on the run
Well, the undertaker drew a heavy sigh Seeing no one else had come, And a bell was ringing in the village square for the rabbits on the run.
Band On The Run, Band On The Run.And the Jailer Man and Sailor Sam Were searching every one For the band on the run, Band on the run, Band on the run, Band on the run
Yeah the Band On The Run, Band On The Run,Band on the run, Band on the run . . .

Well, the night was falling as the desert world began to settle down.In The town they're searching for us every where, but we never will be found.
Band On The Run, Band On The Run. And the county judge, who held a grudge Will search for evermore
For the Band On The Run, Band on the run, Band On The Run, Band On The Run.

Groundspeed: Thin Lizzy

Thin Lizzy

I can't tell you how much Thin Lizzy (and particularly front man/vocalist/bassist Phil Lynott) has influenced my life. Since I was 13 years old and first heard the "Live and Dangerous" LP, I followed their career and, ultimately, Phil's tragic demise in 1985, put a nail in the coffin of one of the 70's and 80's best rock bands. Please follow the link above to read more. . .

Friday Night

Well, it turned out to be a hot, steamer of a night in Stirling. The rain held off, however, and there was a fair crowd that turned out. Looking forward to the 150 th anniversary next summer. Bigger stage, sound, and a full line up of other entertainment.

Stirling Street Dance

The Stirling Street Dance has been pulled ahead to Friday, Sep. 7 th due to the looming rain forecasted for Saturday. It's supposed to be a nice balmy summer night . . . the last for the year probably. Enjoy . . . I know I will!

The scene

Had a pretty good weekend at the roadhouse in Deseronto. At first it was looking like we did not have a sound system to use (we always use the house system when we play there), but Doug managed to scrape one together (lights too). Thanks.

Looking forward to the Stirling street dance . . . last of the summer out door shows. We always enjoy it and have been really successful in the past. I'm going to video it and put it on this page.
Hope to see you there!
