Random story from the
Road: |
This wasent with
powderburn, but I remember setting a hotel room on
fire (totally on accident) with a country band I was
touring with. We were drinking heavily, and the
singer thought he would practice his golf swing
before the next morning.... He swung, hit the AC,
knocked the bottle of 151 off the AC, and strait
into the fun electrical parts... Instant fire, and
all the bass player did was walk over and open the
window...
Funny enough, they thought the AC broke on its own,
and we didnt get charged a dime. |

What would you be doing

BAND COMMENTS |
|
|
Ken |
Dale does it all. He fixes guitars, trailers, trailer tires,
drums, V-10 engines, he cuts hair, makes food,
raises kittens, holds yard sales, and sells hermit
crabs all to help the band move forward, and all
while smoking a pipe. But for real, he’s the secret
unofficial/official member of powderburn |
|
Greg |
Dale
is like Mr. Wizard meets Tim “The Tool Man” Taylor…
he likes to build and fix stuff, and knows just
enough to be dangerous. He’s also got an unhealthy
penchant for fire. And he finds it extremely funny
to tear something of mine apart down to the bolts
and then say “Hmm… never seen THAT before” And then
waits for me to freak out on him for destroying my
gear. Yeah… funny. |

Pat |
If
MacGyver were real, he would ask Dale what to do
when he had a problem. The ultimate man to have on
the road – he does literally everything for us but
serve us sexually. He would probably even do that if
the rate was right.
He’s
also the king of riding the outskirts of the legal
age of consent. If you have a daughter that just
graduated high school, best to keep her away from
Dale. And I mean that with the sincerest sense of
awe and respect, of course.
