After reading my last post on Jan 7 i must add that I'm so far away from there you wouldn't believe ... my fellow bloggers it's time to work out in the garden ...



if you are blessed like me you have a spot where you can play in the sun and take care of your little friends the plants.... my recent days have been passed out in the garden hooded up and fighting off the mouches-noir little black flies, they bite ... we had some close calls with near freezing nites but we seem to have gotten away with another cold one .. the FULLMOON is over the weekend after that we will be in the warmer cycle ... my band is working in clubs and festivals this spring and summer so I've got plenty to do ..

and although the love left years ago the friendship with benefits continued. On and off then on again she moved into her new place and we continued. I had unfinished business with my musical partner and it was strenuous to continue about a month before the Holiday's I stopped calling her and never went back. I wanted it to end and it did a week later she met a man on a Montreal dating site and fell in love. The following week she called me up to announce the news. My ex took off her OKC profile we matched 77%... and flushed her chat buddies. She still wanted to remain friends and we could still communicate as her new b/f keeps contact with his ex. She went on to tell me that he plays the guitar and is quite good. She also said that he's a fan of my YouTube stuff. The same sign as me but a dozen years younger and her age ... she even sent me a photo to prove her point. I wrote five sets of lyrics to try to shake off the depression and went to sleep. Life goes on, but even an old dog learns something new. REFERENCE Steve's Notes

I haven't been hanging out around OKC very much recently. But since I started dialoging we a few of the Ladies on this funsite I had to come back for an UPDATE.... I opened up an account on FACEBOOK and I've been promoting my new band ROCK U to the people on the ever growing list.

I like to get out and walk around at least for a half hour. Today I moved snow for an hour and it tired me out quitesome. But it's great if, like me you take a little nap just around sundown. You can always then get up later for supper. In the winter early in the season when the days are shorter the sun goes down and so do I. POWER NAP. No more than 90 minutes, that's one full sleep cycle.

ROCK U doing one gig a week and when possible I like to get my PN before the show usually we start after 22h00. Playing close by half hour drive I'll go back home after the sound check and get my beauty sleep ... Big note eh ? MY MONTREALERS;-) I still haven't gone back to the Wheel Club on Cavendish for Country Monday's so I'm a bad boy there too ... I'm really having a royal time right in my home town making new friends and playing my music. just google "steve solo"

>>>> I write this blog as a sort of therapy I used to do a daily blog but it got to heavy and I had to stop so I'll limit my writings on life and my expectations to this space ... for the pleasure of the written word.

I've been around the block one time too many and I have sworn off relationships for a while ha ha... I don't need a steady gf because I got plenty of local girls checking me out as I walk downtown or hang out at my favorite Café. I have regular KARAOKE PARTYS at home and the network is building. As far as OKCupid goes as a tool to attract women it hasn't been as sucessful as one would have expected even though I'm at 99% WTF's I've never been out on a date or even really conversed with anyone really interesting enough to make me move my skinny ass into dating mode.

On the plus side OkCupid has helped me understand myself in more ways than one. The knowledge and pointers I obtained by answering all 2500 + questions showed me where I stood on different issues and decisions in my personal life. To see my personality traits mapped out in front of me was worth the price of admission alone.

I'm working in my garden on nice days I'm finished painting my roof this week probably tomorrow I've got a visitor Wednesday and Thursday but I'm open Friday if it's nice I do a music show on Main Street in Rawdon. I don't know it's getting late in the season; we had a great afternoon on the 27th played lot's of cool music and met more nice people The hat was good and we can go forward. I'm looking towards next summer.

And I'm wide awake I fell asleep after a good meal of Sunday's rice and some fried tomatos and onions with a little ham! I missed my friend Andre L. Who came over with some beer and talked with Louys and the beer too I guess ... why didn't somebody wake me up? Like I said it's raining and hopefully it will end at noon and the folks will be passing by en masse for my outside music show at the Café des Artistes in Rawdon 15h00. The leaves are bright autumn colors and that usually brings up people from the city to slum in Hicksville. I you are out and about Saturday afternoon drop over to the Café.

If you've read my profile and looked at the photos I present on the site you'll know what kind of man I am now, er again mmm like before, better when I was younger. RAMBLIN SOLO. I just can't shut up .. I've noticed that I attract women more when I'm focused and determined and when my goals are plain and simple. When I apply the One day at a time principal I arrive at this superior mindset that just does magic for me and attracts good people to me. I was down when my best girl moved out, it took about six months to ween off whatever hold she had on the old me. So what's the point again Daddy? I might paint if it doesn't rain I still have the other half to finish... I'm not kiddin you girl I'll tell you when I'm mobiling to Montréal and we can meet at the Wheel Club on Cavendish. Like I mention on my FACEBOOK we're screening musicians for Gigs around our area and Montréal Laval. We have connections at Pub St Paul and Bistro à JoJo. The band, 3 or 4 members, will start cheap and work up... wow just like in the old days :) For this Dude it's not really a case of MONEY but you don't refuse 100$ a man for a public show especially a new band. I'm so excited I feel 20 years younger haven't been serious with good musicians since the 80s when I worked with Craig Morrison. Well enough bla bla bla later.. ======================================================== More on my FACEBOOK HERE... Steve

I Had a pretty exciting week my ex came back around and sang up a storm. We talked laughed and partied. When I drove her back home I got that feeling I would never see her again the same way. She was feeling down because her last encounter didn't turn out the way she wanted. I was blue because I don't really have anyone who can turn me on like she does. We were a comfort to each other. I guess that's what it's all about about... live for the moment!

I've been choosing songs to present my new band if you're curious have a look at my FACEBOOK for the list and a vido I posted. http://www.new.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=25301224287

Have a nice weekend!

I'm looking for someone to carry my guitar when I go out to play. You get into the show free and you get to answer questions like is that your boyfriend? and how long has he been playing? and real mindbenders of the sort. Heeha just kiddin ya mam ;)

I'm working in my garden on nice days I'm painting my roof this week probably tomorrow I've got a visitor Wednesday and Thursday but I'm open Friday if it's nice I do a music show on Main Street in Rawdon.

From my place it's 5 minutes by car and a half hour walk in the woods if your in shape. Rawdon is built on a series of hills it has 2 rivers and 4 bridges. So it's a good walk up the some of the hills but there is a great flat part the main street Queen Street Stores and boutiques and downtown living.

I have a chalet on the Ouareau River it's nice and quiet and I'm always working on the house or on the grounds it's looking pretty good too. You would say it has potential and of course location. I have a canoe and some jackets and paddles we can go for a float there's no bugs on the water. Only the females bite.

I have a recording studio in one of the rooms and I practice my jazz and blues. Just so you realize I'm genuine I have some Youtubes my most popular is

That's me in a nut shell so what do ya think? Eh?

Hello Ladies in Montréal.

I read your profiles and looked at your photos ..there are a lot of pretty women here! I like the tests and the psycholigical leaning of this dating site, but I haven't met anyone in person yet. I'm just too busy, or not in the mood. Making contact with someone on line is easy enough to do, but staying interested is another matter. I'm really interested in a musical person someone who has the abilities to perform and record music.

I'm not here for sex, I really don't need it all that much, prefering to hang with my friends and meet new people. If you are looking for someone to really rock yer boat try a 25 year old. Oh I have the experience that's for sure but with the passage of time it's not as consuming as when I was a young BUCK.

Playing my music and writing have become even more a my passion in life and it goes a long way keeping my mind clear. One day soon I will meet someone who matches me well over 70% and I will then welcome a relationship.

Have fun and keep in touch.

Steve

Ok I usually write this stuff on the fly on the blog but this edition must be published only after a few reads an hopefully more edits. So whats so important this morning well the sun will rise if that’s not to much to ask. I had wonderful nite of self discovery and was tested many times during the evening so much so that I had to go for prolonged walks just to stay out of the line of fire. Oh I came up against a few young men tonite and walked away with more than my pride intact.

I’m 60 and I’m proud of it. I’ve reached a stage in my incarnation where the blade is at it’s sharpest when it’s pointed at me. How I manage not to get cut seems to be dependent on my powers of persuasion . Tonite I tested the powers of persuasion to well almost the limit I’m not much of a gambler prefer to wager on a sure thing.

I was tested at the iNN tonite by my fan Master J. ... I’ll admit what I did was wrong. I apologize bad call on my part. Master J had been on my case since I started hosting the Karaoke Friday Nites I really wondered why he saw me as a threat I’m at least twice his age we’re not interested in the same babes ha ha ha. Sorry to say he was as usual, very inconsiderate of my station, although he wouldn’t understand this at this stage in his life. I very wise man stepped in and allowed Master J and I to save face and I was able to leave the terrace in peace.

I made my way down to the alternative HOT SPOT in Rawdon the Manchester a place where I hadn’t really rallied behind since my brand of entertainment couldn’t bring in anymore than the sparse crowd that patronizes the out of the way establisment. The original zone was a railway turnaround that brought tourists up fom Montréal and Ottawa to summer and winter in Rawdon Township. Now that the Railroad has abandoned Rawdon 1961?... it’s just that place down the hill.

So I went to see what was happening .... there was JG and the Bartender S and a young fellow sitting at the VLT. So here I was explaining to S why I was slumming tonite .. anyways he was a great ear served a fine perculator coffee and got to hear my side of the story whether he wanted to or not. JG confirmed my genuinety by bragging about my prowess on the musical stage and merci beaucoup JG.

The only real bummer that had a problem was the VLT it seemed to be in my face for some strange reason kept harping away at very inopportune times. I had to skirt away more than a few times as VLT wanted me to play that silly game. I knocked a drink on the floor but immediately apologized and replaced it with some change I had in my pocket. I think VLT was in competiton with the house internet or something misplaced like that but it really smelled like DEA or it’s FOE.

Again I walked for a change of air and found myself again at the Red River and on the army-style bridge where I paced for an hour commenting on my lucky 649 ticked of 15MILLION and how I was going to use it to gain leverage to buy the flatlands at 348 and Vincent Massey and build low cost housing. The echo from the bridge was amusing and I ranted and raved about finding investors who were not profit motivated. I finally settled in my camper and bedded down till dawn. What a relief.

BTW I won’t check the ticket preferring to wait till they contact me. What you don’t want a Happy Ending?
