For you Canadians (like me), who don’t have Foosh mints. Or Squirt Soda. So Here’s my substitutes!
Instead of Squirt Soda, use FRESCA!
Instead of those caffeinated mints, try finding quirky flavor mints at your local “mom and pop” store. I’m using ginger mints, for example.
Sometime this week I’ll do a video of my first concoction.
If you need labels for the bottles, google search, and you’ll find them quick!
I’m just waiting for my isotopes to come in the mail (i.e. black lights) for the Quantum.
I reckon this may taste funky, but you can’t spell funky without “FUN”!
Fuck, do I love Fallout.
Boom.

****UPDATE****
This recipe sucks. You know why? 1/3 of each flavor pop, then tonic water? That doesn’t make any sense. I tried it. Stay tuned for my drinkable recipe in a couple of days.

Austin, TX (SXSW 2012)
My band, The Rabid Whole, played the IndieWeek Showcase/RedGorilla Music Fest during the SXSW Music/Film Festival down in Austin, Texas a couple of weeks ago. It was a fantastic experience. Probably one of the best I’ve witnessed being in a band.
Real ‘Southern Hospitality’ I must say! Friendly people.
While talking to people, I caught myself developing a southern accent! Wearing the hat/goggles didn’t really help, either. hahaha!
If you’re friends with me on facebook (If not, look me up. George V. Radutron), you’ve seen these on my timeline (or on Instagram). Except here there’s more of a story to them.
Did I take bathroom pics? You better believe I did! Those will be posted down the road.
Anyways, less talk more pics…
- The night before we leave! See Knuckles in the back? Yeah you do…
- Pee break for everyone. So I stayed behind to guard the van…
- Somewhere in Ohio. Reminded me of home…
- I think it’s about 1AM and we’re damn near Nashville, TN. We switched drivers at a rest stop. I peed behind a building that housed vending machines.
- Of course the TV in the hotel has white noise. Whatever. The crazy bike show across the alley was echoing crap I’ve seen in Fast And The Furious. Except, you know… bikes. 😛
- The morning in Nashville. Getting ready to hit the road again!
- My old daily grind before moving to Toronto was being a mover. So naturally I load the band’s gear, and everyone’s bags. I’m also trailer security!
- When in Austin, TX. We finally park at 9th, and Red River. This is the first thing I see stepping out of the van. Such a bold statement. This is America. Turns out there’s a shirt. Bought it.
- Double Dog Texas Tommy. 2 franks, bacon, sauerkraut, relish, cheese. So. Good. At the Casino El Camino.
- I was about to tell my bass player about Com Truise playing all week during SXSW. Who do I see? Seth Haley himself. He was kind enough to give me a moment to tell him how awesome I think his music is. Fukken eh.
-
Oscar, and I cutting through an alley. I was later told that in Austin, one shouldn’t do such a thing.
- I WISH I saw this man.
- Shiny Toy Guns. First time seeing them. Not bad! ;P
- The band outside The Dizzy Rooster on 6th in Austin. A couple of hours before our show. First show in the U.S.
- Myself after the Dizzy Rooster. The heat + our outfits made for one sauna of a show. I was pooped.
- The second and last show of our time in Austin. The Whiskey & Ink was accommodating. The best show of the two, we found. The stage doors were open to the street. It was great.
- The Boiling Pot. They dump seafood on the table, and you eat it right there! Blue Crab, King Crab, shrimp, Corn-on-the-Cobb, sausage. So good. A little disgusting, but worth the massacre.
- The fixture in the main hall of The Driskill on 6th. The Lone Star is everywhere.
- “Staring contest. You and Me.”
- These guys called themselves John Conner. Not sure what it was all about. I suppose that’s what the internet is for 😛
- My keyboardist Chalsey, enjoying the balcony at The Driskill as we watched the sun go down.
- Green lasers on the roof-tops. AWESOME! I wanted Com Truise music to play. In fact I think that night he was playing…
- This hat, that came with the house we’re renting in Toronto, started as a joke. It has quickly become a part of myself and my adventures abroad. Kinda like Indiana Jones. Except I ain’t raiding tombs and the like. Love this hat.
- On the way back home, we stayed in Memphis. I wandered the legendary Beale St., and came across this sign. Remember that Liberty statue with the gun? Yeah…
- We toured the Gibson Factory. We saw how their guitars get made and assembled. It’s almost all handmade! Very interesting stuff! Very cool!
- Yes. That’s Cinderella’s carriage. Too bad my g/f wasn’t with me 😦
- Saw this, and I HAD to get it. Nothing like drinking pop the classic way. So tasty!
- Need I say more?
- Truth.
X-Men: Animated Series – Drinking Game
My girlfriend and I have almost wrapped up the entire X-Men animated series from the 90’s. And we agreed that this show would be killer as a drinking game.
Rules:
Drink everytime:
•Hank McCoy (Beast) says: “Fascinating”; quotes someone (drink x2).
•Wolverine: his claws come out; he uses/talks about his nose; mentions he gonna use his claws to extract something out of someone; rages
•Cyclops says: “Jean!” or “Professor”; uses optic blast
•Jean Grey: says “Scott…”
•Storm: “summons” or mentions what element of the weather she’s about to do; Falls from the sky (drink x3)
•Gambit: says his own name; calls Rogue “cher”; lights something up and throws it
•Rogue: takes flight; punches something; touches someone draining them (drink x3)
•Jubilee: whines
•Professor X: says “X-Men”
•you hear “previously, on X-Men”
Yeah this sounds like fun.
Boom.
