The situation is tense, very tense. I'm writing this entry on the inside of a bag of doggie kibble. We are desperate to make tonight's attack an effective one, liberating the true believers in Nash. Nash, Cut-Throat Cathie and Alex have gone ahead to survey the terrain, while I stay back home with my canine pals Maggie and Marley to coordinate tonight's operation. We pooches have infrared digital imaging, satellite relays, and of course, a full bowl of water. If all goes well, we will liberate the entire Niagara Peninsula from the dreaded scourge of modern Pop Music! As my good readers will remember, we reconnoitred this territory before, trying to break into the younger market by playing at The Mindbomb. This original attack by Nash failed miserably, but before long, without any offensive engagement on our part, the rock fortress once known as The Mindbomb crumbled in its own dust and the local punks choked on the debris. The Cut-Throat Commandos are once again working in this strategic area because the Niagara Peninsula is an important stronghold of older Nash fans, and they must be liberated from the infidels and charlatans of today's bad excuse for rock music. On our two previous skirmishes at The Mindbomb, we made the attack but were driven back, not by an assault of abuse but by a total lack of interest. We were wasting our ammo on an adversary who wasn't even there. We decided to create a new stronghold to liberate the followers, and the dedicated ones arrive by the truckload. Good Times Bar is where the true believers are holed up. Hundreds arrive armed with albums and posters to sign, bearing witness to the true meaning of rock and roll liberation. No more oppression from the 20 year olds who think Beck is a poet or Trent Reznor is heavy! Nash hit them with a full assault, causing ears to bleed in the first twenty minutes and then posting a live digital feed to CNN. No actual carnage from the performance was shown. Nash and his team took over the bar like a swarm of Navy Seals, cutting off the exits so no one could escape the music without buying a button or sticker before making a safe exit. There were no prisoners of war: most people seemed satisfied to stay and eat the tasty rations that Nash dished out. Nash the Slash, liberator of St. Catharines and Niagara Falls! Freedom Fighter for all that is electric! Digger |
