Oooh juicy shit… neighbours are having a blue (again) on the street and I’m standing in my driveway cheering them on.

Nobody likes this lot, and I’m not worried about it getting violent.

Looking for song recommendations to blast on my phone to get them riled up even more.

This is a regular occurrence and the rest of the street is tired of it, but I’m the only one that is willing to kind of engage.

Apparently pubs had to stop playing Cold Chisel’s ‘Saturday Night’ because there were always fights when it was used. Urban legend.

My suggestion is Ramones - Merry Christmas. Or Yakety Sax

I put it on and they’re fuming.

They’re also scared of me (me big they small) so can’t do a thing about it.

Perhaps they’ll unfiy their hate of me into something good.

The dude is losing his shit and I’m staying calm which somehow makes him more angry

I played Saturday night’s alright for fighting and the lady told me to mind my own fucking business.

So I played it again and sang along

Remember folks it’s more efficient to start your air conditioning early in the day and keep it running to manage the temperature, rather than cranking it up when it’s already hot to cool down.

We used our powerpal reader as a meter when the sun was blazing and cranked the aircon as far as possible while reading zero grid use. Now maintaining comfy as shit with very little oomphing.

So you’re saying it barely used any power starting it up in the middle of the day?

Zero grid usage. One of the first things we did was install a giant solar rig

Kids and I are going through videos on YouTube and we stumbled on The Tea Party (Canadian rock band from the 90s and 00s)

Is it appropriate to tell my kids that I’ve hung out with the band at a bar and the recording studio.

And yes…many, many lines of Columbiab marching powder are featured in the stories.

The bar we used to hang out at was near a local recording studio.

Tea party were recording and would go to the bar for drinks.

I recognised the singer and introduced myself and my mates. He was super nice and thrilled that we knew who he was. My mates were musicians and he would talk shop with them.

The other guitarist/bassist was chill and would talk hockey and movies. The drummer wanted nothing to do with us and just sat on the side drinkinig.

At one point I went to the toilets and heard a loud snort. Two band members exited a stall, saw me, laughed and offered me a line.

I accepted, as one should.

Went back and kept chatting.

We probably ran into them 3-4 times in a span of a month and they remembered us each time.

Few months later they were shooting a video at my uni and had no idea who we were, but we’re still nice.

Omitting stuff and white lies are ok to protect young ears. They don’t need to know all the details. 😉

I told him it was luck and about 20 years of unrelated practice
