Mending Fences...

15 years ago I was in a great little cover band Called "Crossfire"

Good bunch of Guys, and good friends... but, long story short... we were all young, headstrong perhaps.. and when it ended, it didnt end exactly well..

I wont go into what the argument was about, but at the time, I was convinced quite passionatly that "I was right and they were wrong" or as Cat Stevens wrote "its them, you know, not me"

Anyway.. its funny how time heals all...



as I was cutting the VHS tape of old footage of the band off on DVD and putting some of it on u-tube... I realized that, ok.. while maybe I had a "point" they actually had a damn good one too... and maybe, just maybe, I'd behaved like a 20 year old asshole... (as opposed to the 35 year old asshole I am today.. ha ha ha)











Ok... no maybes about it... I was an asshole... But, in my defence, i was only 20 and 20 year olds are expected to behave like assholes.... arnt they???





regardless... I set out to find them... and see if we couldn't bury the hatchet....


I found the Singer, Dan, about a week ago, and the guitarist, Brad, found me today... all via the internet and email...

God bless technology.... And God Bles Dan and Brad

long story short they all feel the same way and I couldn't be happier to have reconnected, and had a chance to appologize for my part in it... its like a weights been lifted off my chest...

they're each doing well, and I'm looking forward to getting to know them again, and maybe catching up with some beers sometime soon... Im actually embarassed I didnt do this sooner... I've missed out on 15 years of friendship, emails, and so on... But better late then never...

All in all.. this has been a great weekend...

opps... spoke too soon.... As I look around here, cleaning up and stuff, I just realized I got some prep work to do for work tomorrow, and my back's aching (usualy does that this time of day) I'll have to delay taking the ol' pain killers till after the works done, otherwise it'll take me 2 hours to do 15 minutes of work...

oh well.. Work or no work.. its still been a great weekend... Hope it sets the pace for the whole week ahead...

Nite all..
