Five Man Electrical Band

This is a great time to take out those Five Man albums and CDs, listening to great music as you read etc. Main part of listening, you are able to stay safe inyour homes and doing what you love that is hard to do most of the time due to work. Get caught up on whatever you couldn't have time for. Spring is around the corner, can start your spring cleaning on the house etc! Please stay home and stay safe so we can see you at the next concert when the virus runs its course and we can all start living again outside of our homes!

I guess what happens to me when sleep is too far in the future. Past can't be changed although it's always in my present especially when I fall asleep. Trying to forget is an obsolete venture. Thinking about today and the future as I sit here watching a muted TV.

Been waiting to put this all together. It's the story of how Signs came to be on the famous Route 66 Highway! That is a replica metal Route 66 highway sign. Have a greyhound type bus. Of course the Signs single with picture sleeve. Will have to build up with land looking type filling then a road that bus will be on and then on sticks will be a billboard (bottom right). All my 5man pictures of the late 60s and 1970s that go on the wall are in a white frame. They will surround ...the shadowbox which will be in middle of wall. Then spreading out from them will be all my pictures dealing with music from my dad'd bands to Ozzy (and an autograph picture he sent me) and my ultimate favourite guitarist of all time whom I dreamt of playing like, that never happened. My next adventure. They have minature band equipment, I can setup a total 5man stage plot (not exact looking instruments like Keyboards on top of one another like Teds Keys which have a higher ans lower tier). Will be so cool. Will have the white double bass drum like Steve's. Will get "Milestone" badges that go on the side of the drums and what he had put on the bass drum heads with little hole and all. Will make a minature stage with riser and everything. Maybe ask someone with 3D printer so can have band done and myself waiting on sidelines waiting to run on if they need me. Thanks to my wife, Tracey Latendresse

It's that time of year again when we see family, be merry and celebrate the holidays with a glass or two. Please drink responsibly so the new year can bring more music and being with our love ones. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
