Sometimes, you hear something so nutty that you say it just can't be true but then you research it and then, low and behold, IT IS TRUE.. Well, April starts out with a few such oddities.
1. Local drummer Randy Tucker (ex White Stallion) got arrested for stealing food. When I first heard this, I thought, no way but Randy is no stranger to trouble and so, I researched this and so this rumour is confirmed by Sootoday police beat, that Randy did in fact get pinched for theft of food at Romes. Sheesh...!! All I can do is shake my head.
2. Get this, if it wasn't bad enough that one local drummer does something naughty, what are the chances a second local drummer does the same damn thing? I couldn't believe this but yes, while looking through the Police Beat after the Randy Tucker thing, another local drummer Jack Fuller, got pinched for theft of...."make up"... ah ..yes. I mention both of their names because they are in fact listed under Police Beat on Sootoday so the stories are true.
Two, local drummers caught for shoplifting. I have no answers on what their court hearings turned out but they were arrested. All I know is that this is pretty damn funny.
3. Rumours are flying about Runway Park (near the airport) being under new ownership or management and that possible concerts may be booked there including headliners and local bands. Apparently, the motorcycle activities there are going to be expanded but they want to develop special events too. I will snoop around a bit more on this topic
4. Rumours that Case's Music got broken into are true. From what it sounds like, the thieves gained entrance from the only window without bars and stole a number of guitars, one being that of one of their teachers ( A Fender Strat). With the economy on the downside and crime up, expect more of this sort of low life activity.
Check our local online news for details on the guitars and robbery.
5. Local singer Lori Bulduc is supposedly releasing a CD soon, if not already. This is true. I've heard a few tracks posted on Facebook a while back. Sounds pretty good although some of the vocals were a bit pitchy. She's got a neat rasp to her voice that kind reminds me of the old band the Divinyls. I will buy it as I always support local talent.
Thanks the short list today..
