Circus Brown has no hippy friends... ok maybe one

So today my brother showed me what to me is one of the greatest websites evar!

Anti-Hippie Action League!

Yep. It goes well with my "unliking" of the hippy kind. Sure, sure, a ton of my friends are hippies, its true! How many of those hippies have called me lately? How many of them hippies have bought me a beer or smoked me out lately? Yep that's right a big phat ZERO! Obviously the peace, love, and sharing is a bit too inconvenient for them to even bother to hit the old speed dial on their hemp friendly cell phones and just chat it up with me.

So I guess I have no hippy friends! Well, wait... there is R2Dstu and he did stop by last night, ok I have 1 hippy friend, but before summers over he'll have shaved that long hair and I'll have thrown his String Cheese Incident hat into a campfire somewhere along the way.


Have you ever been to a Dead show or a Phish show. Everyone is nice. Most of them care about whos there and want to get to know ya. Hippies have done nothing to harm anyone. I doubt they did anything to you. They are nice people. STOP THE HATE, AND GROW UP. We don't need hate, no - one needs hate.

-Ryan (No doubt Ryan is a salesmen: "grilled cheese $2, phatty phat-phat veggie burritos $4" oh how many great telemarketers did we lose to the Dead Shows????)

and Chuck

If you missed them then you really missed out! Where the fuck where you? Tthe stupid CD Burner decided to stop recording, which means this is the only proof that last night even happened. If you want to check them out live Bomb and Beating Hearts play every Friday night in the garage at 297 E. 3790 S. show up around 7ish. If you don't catch them there then keep listening to Not a Side Show hopefully they'll be nice enough to stop by and play another set.

A little less conversation... a little more action!

Goodday Radio-efficient-tornados,

So I spent last week in Memphis, TN and it was fucking cold! Actually it wasn't that bad but a few vagrants yelled at me for just wearing a sweater. The town was pretty dead, but I did get to go to Graceland and I have to admit I wasn't much of an Elvis fan before I went there, but by the end of the tour I was sold, he will always be 'The King'.

As you can tell by the playlist I really did get into the Elvis Spirit.

The February 11th show was extra special my friends After the Party brought in their MOOG and Theremin to the studio and played backup for almost the entire show, sounded like a bonged out 1950's Sci-Fi show, hecka kewl.

The show was so good an inmate from the USP sent me a snail mail requesting a copy of their CD and stating the goodness that is Not a Side Show.

Next week SPORK! And I promise I'll get to working on my Gallery so I can get you all the pictures of Graceland.

PETA loves me

Sorry I was busy...

I wish I could have stopped and updated this page but I've been gone and now I'm back but just for a few days then I'm gunna be gone for a few more so here it all is. First of all one of the best bands I've ever had on my show was Books About UFOs they were on back on January 28th and they brought in a bunch of great music to spin as well.

Then I spent a week in the OC... I have to admit, I don't like the traffic down there but I really wouldn't mind living in the OC it ain't so bad. I got home Friday afternoon and immediately started making my chili for the Tap Room's 4th annual Super Bowl chili cook-off. Don't worry yer all so kewl to be reading my bullshit I'll give you the recipe.

So on Saturday night Junta DeVille stopped by the station, we played a bunch of their George Bush hating music, beautiful stuff, it really is. At first I figured these guys for hippies, I was so very, very wrong. They brought in a lot of old Punk music, turns out Spock from Junta is from San Fran, and he had plenty of records from back then to sample, check out this meaty playlist.

Be sure to check out Books About UFOs and Junta DeVille at a bar near you, check Slug check the Salt Lake Weekly, you won't be bored with their shows.

So like I was saying I made some chili for the Tap Room chili-con-carnival, here's the ingredients:

10 lb Pork Shoulder
1 of each Green, Red, Yellow, Orange Bell Peppers
1 large white onion
4 Jalapeno Peppers
5 Dried Pasilla Peppers (Mild)
5 Dried California Pepper Pods (Mild)
4 Cloves of Garlic
4 cups of beans (I used the Costco 8 bean gourmet blend)
4 15 oz cans of Diced Tomatoes
3 tablespoons cumin
2 tablespoons black pepper
1 tablespoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons chili powder
2.5 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon dried cilantro
1/3 cup olive oil
3-4 cups of Tecate

So this is how it went down, remember I love you and that's why I'm givin' this to ya...

Friday night I smoked the 10 lb pork shoulder at about 200 degrees for 5 or 6 hours with cherry wood. Then I put it in the fridge. Saturday morning I wrapped all of the pork tightly in foil and put it all in the oven @ 350 degrees (pork needs to be 180 degrees to pull). You can skip the whole putting the pork in the oven thing if you smoke it right, but it was windy my smoker didn't wanna get hot enough so that's why I did this. Get them beans soaking overnight fool!

Now the base was the most work I chopped all the bell peppers and onions up into small pieces, see I wanted you to be able to get everything in one spoonful. I mixed in all the spices, put the garlic through a garlic press and also seeded and chopped up 3 of the jalapenos so they could be put through the garlic press as well, it made them into a nice pulp. All of this I put into a big pot and started to heat it up till the onions were translucent and it all was on nice even color.

Next I took the dried chilies and soaked them in warm water, cut them open and rinsed out all the seeds. With a knife I scrapped all the delicious insides out of these chilies and added the paste to the pot. Throw away the skins from these dried chilies all you want is the moist insides. Then add the 3 or 4 cups of beer, I used Tecate cuz it’s a nice Mexican beer. Now I turned off the stove because I wanted the base to soak with the beer and peppers and not cook off all the beer, also I threw in the whole Jalapeno uncut.

So now take the pork out of the oven when its 180 degrees and pull it. I threw out all the fat and added just the delicious pieces of pulled pork, I did put just 2 large chunks of smoked pork fat into the pot, I'm pretty sure it just dissolved. I figure there was about 5 or 6 lbs of pork in there, then I added the brown sugar, canned tomatoes, and 4 cups of beans. Turned the stove back on and let it simmer for about 4 more hours then put it in the fridge.

The chili didn't taste like an award winning chili that night, but on Sunday morning I put it back on the stove and got it heated back up, it tasted delicious. So that's it, this chili won the competition; I can't wait for next year! Thank you World Famous Tap Room!
