365 Days of Tommy P: Day 240



Friday, August 28, 2009 (240)

What do you want me to do? Apologize for my actions? Because that’s not going to happen.

365 Days of Tommy P: Day 239



Thursday, August 27, 2009 (239)

Awesome time at Disappear Here at AK47 with Dark Wave Disco headlining. Wouldn’t you know it, just my luck, my camera died just as I was taking a picture with Mat Devine. So there are no pictures of the rowdiness or of all of the familiar faces.

J- Forest (of The BLB) came down to River North to check out Third Coast Recording Company.



Here we are on the roof.




I patted Splinter on her back and told her that it was fun hanging out.

365 Days of Tommy P: Day 234



Saturday, August 22, 2009 (234)

The BLB’s J-Forest left me in charge of his cooler and let me have his remaining beverages. Some rowdies and I spent the evening in the back room of the Soda Bar. That is all that I can really say about what went down.

365 Days of Tommy P: Day 233



Friday, August 21, 2009 (233)

My brother and I set up a party room in the basement of our father’s cottage in Michigan. We dubbed it, “The Wrecked Room.” The helm on the wall is labeled with different drinking related commands that one must do. Everyone spins the wheel upon entrance.

We stayed in tonight with our sister, and a cousin.

I like this one because it combines two of my favorite elements, multiple Tommy P’s, and aged colours.

Internetting hard, or hardly internetting?

Hardly internetting. The connection where I am in Michigan is worse than dial-up.

Another day and night of recording vocals for The BLB. J-Forest was in the background doing obscene things, but he didn’t actually manage to get in frame.

365 Days of Tommy P: Day 229



Monday, August 17, 2009 (229)

I had to make another trip back to Chicago to return some gear to Third Coast Recording Company. I was planning on turning around and heading back to Michigan. Then I ran into Oscar.

Oscar: “What are you doing tonight?”
Tommy P: “Driving back.”
Oscar: “Wanna go to Rehab?”
Tommy P: “Yes.”

I had packed a shirt because I knew all along what I was really going to end up doing that night.




Here we are with Nino during Rehab at the Debonair Social Club.



After closing out another great night, I spotted a field of grass on my solo walk to Oscar’s apartment. Since I was not the least bit tired (Day 221: “Five is the new two.”) I jumped the fence to enjoy the rare existence of wild overgrown grass in the city.

365 Days of Tommy P: Day 227



Saturday, August 15, 2009 (227)

It was a lot of people’s last night so we had another bonfire in the Half Bowl so that we wouldn’t be disturbed by false accusations of us disturbing others (as was the case the previous evening). It didn’t take long until I had my shirt off and started doing flips over the bonfire. I’m a role model.
