Hot rod hullabaloo

We thought we needed a break, but I am just as bad as the next guy in our band and can not say no...So when the phone rings I am the first to yell "sign me up"
Next time I'll ask where, when, why and most important..."HOW MUCH"

Speaking of getting "signed up" Clem had an incident this summer traveling via air in the USA.

Imagine getting arrested for patronizing the airport lounge while waiting for your flight.

It seems that the air port authority in Minneapolis wants to set a good example and are awarded crispy creams for a job well done. So if it's a little slow that day keeping a vigil eye out for those crazy terrorists they can arrest you for suspicion of being intoxicated. I guess they hang around the lounges and watch to see if any hill billies are making themselves at home, then BAM ... Next thing Clem knew he was sporting new duds and attending A.A. meetings in lock up down town. He was held for 36 hours with out a phone call, until a sympathetic prison guard let him use his own cell phone to call home to say he was alive, under arrest, and might be a bit late for the next gig....

So the moral of the story for foreigners in the USA is

1) Don't drink free pour gin at the airport in Minnesota

2) Don't wear a Metalica t-shirt while reading a copy of "Auto Trader" drinking free pour Gin at the airport in Minnesota

3) Don't state publicly that Jessie The Body Ventura is a horrible actor while doing any of the above

...Clem's only regret is that they wouldn't allow him to keep the cool outfit

Well what to do in Regina when your killing an afternoon. Why not get your hair done? Here are three handsome guys inspecting something on the wall, no doubt impressed with the results from "Shaky's Hair Shack" (and oil change shop)

If those wild hair doo's are not enough, listen to this:
The bartender at the Gaslight, Roberto was whipping us up a round of gin when something crazy happened. Instead of lime, he snuck in a slice of Cucumber. What a great twist on a classic! This is something you really got to try, so next time your in Regina head over to the Gaslight and tell Roberto that the guys from HRH said to check it out!


A couple of updated shots from the Gas Light


But check out the hot girls, and note the cool HRH T shirt Crystal is wearing. (You too can look this hot by getting your own HRH T shirt and a cd while your at it. Were running a $20 special for both!)

"The Gaslight is a one of a kind Live Music Venue. We also have a full service restaurant with excellent Mexican food and great service."

YeeHaaww were back Sept 22 and 23rd!! That's right, this is one of the bars that really helped kick off our band. The Rockabilly scene is alive and well in Regina, and it is in part to the guys and gals at the Gaslight. They always have cool bands showing up, and guys come dressed in their best "wife beaters", spats and slicked back hair. Too bad the weather has turned to crap cause it would have been a good excuse for a bike ride to Regina. These pics go back about two and a half years...









Broke a string and one of the guys from "The Hard Tails" let me use his Telly

September always marks the end of summer, and no better way to say good bye than to spend it at Waskesiu. The is one of Canada's National parks and one of the best places in the province of Saskatchewan. We seem to luck out and have an opportunity to play at the Lakeview Hotel every year. Now anyone that has ever been to the bar at the Lakeview knows that they always host a great time!







Here we are crankin out a few tunes.

Finally we got a shot of our friend Rob "Hazel" Anderson as he poses with "Clem" (Cam) and Lou "Lucifer". It only get's ugly from here cause this is where the waitress just told the boys "Were out of GIN"

Notice that the news isn't bothering Hazel....he's drinking beer

Not only is the a good time and a great bar, but we also combine the trip to allow us to work with the local MS Society. We have made some good friends over the years thanks to Lou Sr, and Carol Fontaine (that's right, Lou's mon and dad) who work hard every year to campaigne for this worthy cause. Carol Fontaine is an avid cyclist with some kind of turbo charged titanium whoop-tee-doo super bike. Lou Sr. supports the bike teams by driving the motor home and the check point volunteer work. In 2005, $295,000 was raised by cyclists in Saskatchewan - $6.3 million was raised across Canada!

Lou's mon and dad do an exceptional job of rasing funds, Lou Jr. likes to help by telling us "sponser my mom if you know what's good for you..."

You can even go on line to sponser a cyclist, and Carol's team is called "Back of the Bus" https://msors.mssociety.ca/bike2006/Lookup.aspx?L=2

Our song "Street Racing Man" was picked up this year on a compilation CD from Stumble Records called "Zombie Night In Canada, Vol 2"




Excerpt from a review :

Written by George Brown from the Bedlam Society

A sequel to the original Stumble Records’ Zombie Night In Canada, this double-disc set bookends a very comprehensive and detailed study of the Rockabilly and Psychobilly scene in the country, and makes an excellent Christmas gift for anyone with a medicine cabinet full of pomade and no particular place to go.
There are redeeming spots like "Street Racing Man", from Hot Rod Hullabaloo (from Saskatoon, of all places, huh Horvath?),

...Well I am not sure who Horvath is, but I like these guys.

When I try to search for this blog or other related things, I can never catch it from the search engine. So I am trying to put what I can in the headers to see if this helps. Send comments, cause I don't think any one reads this! Found a cool pic from Sherry Gordon on her blog site of Lou in "action"
