Presenting ~
Po' Smedley (YES, I am billing myself as such)
Singer/Songwriter
December 15th, 2006
Triple J Saloon
10028 Broad River Rd
Irmo, SC
That's right. After nearly a two year hiatus from having my vocal chords mangled in the spinal fusion, I am daring to take to the spotlight once again.
Now, seeing as how probably none of you are even within driving distance, feel free to send me your tips to put in the tips jar, so you can at least say your money was there. (HA!)
This place is cool, casual, laid back and all that. Just a lil' saloon. Oh, yeah, they have a seven foot,wooden, standing Buddah, so come rub his tummy for luck! (Just his tummy, you freaks)
Very nervous, but looking forward to it. If you DO happen to make it (c'mon...I have openings for 'groupies') introduce yourself so I can mooch a drink!
If you can't make it, here's a little link to some of my music... http://darksmedley.multiply.com/music
Merry Christmas!

You put something in her Foster's to get her to marry you, didn't you?
Hey! I don't do age discrimination! You just can't be weirder or crazier than me.

For the record, Po' ..we export that muck because no-one here likes it..
...well, not many of us Aussies do, anyway.
I'd say he spiked her Boag's [A great Tasmanian brew]

Nope, 'twas the other way 'round....and then there's a bit of a story to that, tho it's still somewhat vague and rather hazy.
Apparently I had taken a shine to her and blackmailed a mate I had some dirt on to tell her I was loaded/indepenently wealthy/abundantly rich. Yeah, I know, that wasn't a very nice thing to do to a friend, but put simply, I was way too broke to offer him a bribe/'service fee'
Well she must've swallowed it! She spent the next evening spiking me iced tea with triple vodkas, and next morning I woke up feeling massively hungover and wondering why I had this 'ere ring on me finger....worse still, I couldn't explain to meself why I had such a humungous 'honeymoon' smile on me dial.
Well the truth had to come out in the wash, didn't it....about me NOT being loaded, that is. She caught me caught me dressed in rags and begging in the mall to pay the utilities bills. "Too late!" I told her when I saw the disgust, disappointment and anger written all over her face: "The ring's on the finger and the damage is done!"
Actually, to cut a long (true) story short, she and her daughter needed rescuing from an abusive husband/father - I happened to be in the right place at the right time - and I needed rescuing from myself/too much of my own company after throwing out my second wife for abusing my kids while I was at work....and as they say, one thing led to another and the rest is history.
BTW Po`, the missus wants ta know if she can be president/CEO of the Oz PO` Smedley Fan Club....like to get the word out here about your music & art, etc....to sell Po` Smedley merchandise like mugs, coasters and T-shirts....autographed nude/semi-nude Po` pics to appease all yer Oz fans who'll never get to see ya live on stage, wearing only a guitar, hat and spurs.

I have no problem with it, but there may be copyright hassles, seeing as how you're describing Skinhit's merchandise campaign.
Seem's he has been working on his own Fan Club Promo.

Just as well. NO ONE would want to see it anyway. Well, maybe Skinhit, but that's another thread waiting to happen.

Wrong...the missus wanted one to put up on the toilet wall, meaning I'd have to go use the downstairs dunny instead.
On another note, given the tongue in cheek humour in so many of your posts, your music was not quite what I expected. To be honest, there were times when I was sorta half expecting comedic lyrics, references to 'Troll Thumping Day' , but I was quite touched, moved, perhaps even surprised at just how deep and meaningful your music is. Put it this way, I relate to so many of your lyrics and how they're sung....they help take me back home, not only to remind me of the downs in life, but how to better appreciate the upsides as well.

I want to say something really funny here, but I can't. Thanks. That means more to me than I can ever say. My original music is very personal, so when it reaches someone, anyone...it makes it worth the sweat and blood that went into them.
As far as making a comedic comment, I'll just say "Arr!' for now.

Frankly, there's nothing funny you could've said, and I say this in all sincerity, your music is seriously up there for me, and the missus too. We both enjoy it very much and most definitely would be attending your show if we could get there.
Seeing as we can't be there, here's some good advice for the night...don't break a leg, or anything else for that matter, just get up there and play/sing to your heart's content.
