I'M EIGHTEEN!!! DA NANA NA NANA!!!

There's a lot of crappy things about living in a hick town in Wisconsin. There's nothing to do, no good shopping, no sun, no warm weather... things of that nature. But there are some good things about it too.

Like the County Fair. The County mutha f'ing Fair. It's everything you big city folks dream of. Lots of obnoxious neon lights, pirate ship rides that go upside down and make you barf your sno-cone out your nose, and the carnies... oh the carnies. Them bastards will literally drag you into their shacks to waste $15 trying to shoot a basketball into an oval hoop, or hit balloons filled with some inert gas that doubles as invisible concrete. All for some stupid stuffed animal which you end up having to carry around the rest of the time, or the framed picture of Hulk Hogan still left over from the '83 fair.

But then... then... there is the concerts at night. For some reason, as sucky as our little shithole town is, we bring in some of the best B list acts to ever roam the planet. The other year we had Heart come to town. HEART! Barracuda. Magic Man. Those are some classic songs. I love Heart.

Then last year we had none other than Charlie Daniels. CHARLIE DANIELS! Alright, enough with the yelling. Charlie Daniels, well known for The Devil Went Down to Georgia... just rocks the house. Johnny Cash would be better, no doubt, but he's dead, so Charlie Daniels is really the next best thing.

But this year... This year will be like no other. They have announced the main acts for Friday and Saturday night at the Fond du Lac, WI County Fair.

Saturday night will rock out with none other than George Thorogood. Good f'ing lord. This is going to be one rockin' drunk fest folks. I mean, does George Thorogood even have a song that doesn't involve beating the shit out of someone or getting piss wasted? Wow. I'm stoked for this concert.

But. What will take place on Friday night will be unparalleled. I present to you..... drumroll...... Alice. Mutha. F'ing. COOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPPPER!

I'M EIGHTEEN!!! DA NANA NA NANA EIGHTEEN! DA NANA NA NANA LIKE IT! LOVE IT! EIGHTEEN EIGHTEEN!!!

WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!



That's me on stage with Alice Cooper in '93. We rocked the house that night, and I plan to do the same when he comes back to town.
