If someone today STILL self-identifies as republican, you have to ask yourself WHY? To get in on the grift before it's too late? Because they have the minimum complement of brain cells? That they somehow think the party still has credibility? Vote 'em all out; it's the only way. Easiest ballot ever.

Imagine being imprisoned for jaywalking. OK, gas prices, but don't forget that we now have concentration camps filled with the hardest-working people in America. And maybe a few criminals. Remember, being undocumented in America is still only a misdemeanor. Now imagine being tortured for jaywalking.

We've been Fattening other stages for almost three months, but we're back two Mondays in a row, celebrating our ten year anniversary at the casino. We'll have the "Fat Shot Horns" with us for both Mondays, as saxman Keith Stone joins Mark Kelly, our angel of the woodwinds. Free Labor Day brat-dogs!

This Sunday, we'll crank it ALL the way up ... exactly one decibel below the legal limit. If anybody asks. It was a whole thing.

"... fed officials admit that $7.5B reduction in clean energy funding based solely on whether states had voted for Kamala Harris. In contrast, the administration funded grants for states that had backed trump, though the Energy Department had recommended they be cancelled." - Heather Cox Richardson

Drunk uncle Nancy sees "transgenic mice," ignores the spelling, rails on about transgender mice. All the drunks at the bar began to sing along. Maybe look it up? Transgenics alters genomes, not genders; arguably worse, but a common technique used on mice in research labs to test drug effectiveness

We don't have a video wall at the Rockfish tonight in Anacortes, 7:30-10, and it's way past tulip season. But what the hey ... this video-wall image #19 is a field at Tulip Town entitled "popcorn." Which you had to eat a whole lot of, if you were patiently watching the front of the Kennedy Center.

We had great fun at the Old Edison on Saturday, and at the Anacortes Waterfront festival on Sunday. Next stop on the tour ... right down the road a piece at the Rockfish Grill, Saturday June 13 7:30pm in Anacortes.

Cool, I can dig some Gaga. Maybe the guy just likes the design. Nah, he probably knows. But you have to wonder what those Chinese-character t-shirts and tattoos Americans wear are really saying.

No matter where you put them, they are going to accelerate global warming exponentially. 10,000 new data centers are expected by 2030. If built, the one in Utah is expected to raise local temperatures by 28 degrees at night, transforming a semi-arid climate into a desert.

Sunday, we headline the Anacortes Waterfront Festival. We'll have the Ozempic Horns for this one, appropriately featuring Keith Stone who literally lives IN the waterfront (on a boat).

The Fat Fridays band will NOT be performing at the Great American State Fair. Thank you for your lack of attention to this matter. Not that we were invited or anything.

I doubt that J.D. Souther wrote this back in 1975 with you-know-who in mind, but the chorus sure resonates. "You can't sleep at night in a solid gold room." youtu.be/Vk0RQkBWk3w?...

May the Fat be with you on Monday. Come by the casino, we're "soft-releasing" our new CD! Whatever that means. And yes, we literally start playing classic rock for dancing at 11am.

Doublespeak rule: when the current administration states a reason for their actions, believe the opposite. (The guy told over 30K lies last term.) If they say something like "we're weeding out fraud and abuse," you can be sure that fraud and/or abuse are about to be nurtured like an epstein tween.

Remember "happenings?" Wikipedia says "Happenings are difficult to describe," because anything that 'happens" can be one. We won't be putting on love beads or disco boots for ours, but if you happen to join us, remember ... early bird gets a table!
