Stickest Gary Jibilian escaped a Michigan snow storm to attend the Winter NAMM show and play some gigs around Annaheim, CA back in January '04. Along the way he "discovered" a helpful celebrity host, played a gig at "14-Below" ("brrrrrr...."), did two impressions of Beavis & Butthead in order to secure some drum cases, was 'bombarded' by musical gods (including Steve Vai, Bill Bruford, Joe Satriani, Stu Hamm and many more), nearly got hired by Donald Trump (unbeknownst to Trump), and learned that no matter how cool you think your instrument is, you will always lose to a couple of scantily clad Dean Guitar girls.

After a long hiatus 'The Dish' is back and it feels good. Man, there's so much to tell you all about,so here we go!
Had a good start to the new year with the B.R.I.C.K. show at The Emerald. It was the first show put together by the Detroit Choppers and they did a great job, special props to Mike at the choppers. I had a blast, I mixed all the bands and everybody kicked ass. Some things that stood out were Critical Bill's monster stage show and Killin the Norm adding a dj.
