If you ever want to see the Peckery alive again....(oops I accidently must have slipped into ransom note mode

)

(clear throat and starts typing again)
If you want to hear what the Peckery sounds like you can hear him live tonight between 9&10pm CST at

http://www.live365.com/stations/wklu

Arminta and Blaq Lily are doing an interview on an Indianapolis Broadcast radio station (that we taped a couple of weeks ago) and it includes rare footage of the Peckery actually speaking. (we only allow him a microphone at live shows during dire emergencies)

The above address is for the radio station simulcast.

Peace

(now where did I leave that list of ransom notes I need to write today - rumages through wads of paper in the Raven nest while continuing to grumble)

We are not east coast time now. What ever is one to the left

Posted by: A Shrule Egan 10-May-2004, 05:53 PM

I believe they call that "CENTRAL".

Posted by: Herrerano 10-May-2004, 06:05 PM

I am on Eastern Standard Time year round. I just need to know if you are on Daylight Savings Time or as Raven stated in the first post Central Standard Time.

Peckery, think hard. Did you change your clock a couple of weeks ago? (change not clean

)

Posted by: peckery 10-May-2004, 06:12 PM

NO. We do not change our clocks in this bass ackward stste.

We are Central Standard Time in this part of Indiana and we have two counties that change with everyone else only one changes with Central and the other with Eastern......is that coool or what

Posted by: Herrerano 10-May-2004, 06:19 PM

Ok, then that means it will be 10 to 11 EST. I will try and tune in if I am still here.

Guess that explains why there were so many train wrecks back in the late 1800s.

Peckery, can you give us a brief transcription of what was said on this radio broadcast you appeared on??? DO TELL!!!!!!

Leo

Posted by: Raven 10-May-2004, 08:45 PM

sorry everyone (blushes) I don't know what gives they were supposed to air our segment tonight and I called them this afternoon to make sure.........would you believe false alarm.... by golly I will get to the bottom of this if I have to question every Lama in Indianapolis.

Posted by: Herrerano 10-May-2004, 08:50 PM

WHAT!!!!!

But, but, you said 9-10 CST ... what time is it there?

I'll go back to listen to Mike Turner's very small band. Cool sounding horn.

Leo

Posted by: Herrerano 10-May-2004, 09:14 PM

Well, this does solve one mystery. Indianapolis is on EST (Eastern Standard Time). Sheesh !!!!!!!!

Leo

Posted by: Raven 11-May-2004, 07:53 AM

Sorry about the confusion Leo. But we are on Central time. Mike Turner came on at 9:30 by my watch which was where we were supposed to be. I guess Mike was a better opportunity

I have threatened to kidnap both the station manager and the shows sponsor for this insult

I'll Let you know when they are actually supposed to run the spot.

Thanks for tuning in and I hope that all is well in the salt mines.

Peace

I was bummed last night. I was tuned in as well. I was hoping to hear you guys. I look forward to listening to the real broadcast.

Posted by: Herrerano 11-May-2004, 10:34 AM

I don't know nuthin'. This whole time thingy has my head spinning. But this is what I checked to get the time straightened out, now don't nobody go and confuse me anymore.

Leo

Posted by: Raven 11-May-2004, 11:14 AM

I see why the confusion Leo. Below is the local time for Chicago which is the same as Indianapolis yet the World Clock has them listed as Central time. Perhaps they don't change us back and forth since technically we are on EST but we do not observe DST

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=64

http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=105

If this isn't a geographical oddity then I have never seen one.

Mikel

Posted by: Herrerano 11-May-2004, 11:19 AM

I don't know, I do know that Central Daylight is equal to Eastern Standard, but there you have it and now you are confusing me more and I think I will go hide for a while.

Leo

Posted by: Raven 11-May-2004, 12:25 PM

Okay Leo

We will just have to syncronise our watches

After enduring my tirade about how the station has embarrassed not only me but my family and my ancesters, I was able to extract a promise from the station that they will air our segment next week between 9 and 10 CST (pretend it's Chicago) I do not know if we will be the first or the second half hour of the show.

I've got to run right now to defuse all of the booby traps that I set at the station to get them to bend to my will

Peace

Be sure those sorry excuses of human waste realize how close to starting an international incident they have come.

Just ask them if they ever want to eat a banana again!

So True Raven!
Peckery's don't fetch, they spend!

Yes we do spend. Bought a new truck yesterday!!! Had to retire Sadie at 110,000 plus miles. She will be missed. Hope hilljacks don't buy her!

Posted by: Annabelle 12-May-2004, 04:48 PM

See told ya! And did you get everything that you can on this new truck? What did you buy?
I love my work truck. I've got a 250 Cummings Diesel engine and a dino liner in the 6 ft bed with crew cab...love it! Makes me want to run over people who pull in on you on the interstate but then I'd scratch it and that no can do!
Happy for you that you got the new truck...be good to it! Talk to it, no you can't sleep with it!

Posted by: Annabelle 12-May-2004, 07:41 PM

What no diesel?
Wuss!
I like a heavier vehicle like a 250 & 350 class truck. Diesels have less to go wrong with them and they just keep kicckin! When I pull things with it I want it to stay on the road not float. If I go 60-65 MPH I get 18.4 per gallon. Now if I go over 70 I get about 16MPH.

The new 150 is a nice truck, enjoy it and give it a bath on Sunday's!

It appears you have much reading to do. Check out all of these threads for the misadventures of Peckery, Sockabelle and the triplets.

thankyou, that was some real intresting reading

Just so you know we are on again with the Peckery speaks this monday night between 9 & 10pm (Chicago time

) at
http://www.live365.com/stations/wklu

Also Annabelle the last real truck that I owned had a 550 Cummins and I loved it. I've always said that if I ever get a full size pickup again I must have a Cummins diesel. Although I really loved my 425 Kitty Cats right up to the day I got my Cumapart

(trucker lingo for Catapillar and Cummins)

If I kept it under 80 on rolling terain (my 550) with 80.000 lbs I could get a quite respectable 6 mpg

I am going to get my scanner hooked up to this PC later on this week end and I will post pics of my old trucks in the virtual garage (mostly KW and Peterbilt)

Peace

Mikel

Posted by: Annabelle 15-May-2004, 04:05 PM

Peterbilts are great built trucks over in Savannah. International diesels are very good too but I prefer the Cummins Diesel over any other. They just won't die!

Posted by: Annabelle 15-May-2004, 04:07 PM

I'll tune in Monday night to hear "the Peckery speaks" but I'm not going to scratch his belly if he rolls over...you know I have my standards too (haha)

Posted by: peckery 15-May-2004, 04:27 PM

Old truckers never die. They just get a new Peterbilt.

So should we be listening for the "Ask the drummer a question" segment? Of course I'll listen to the whole broadcast to hear the great music.

Yes the Peckery handled the ask the drummer segment in a most shocking and unusual way.

Posted by: Annabelle 17-May-2004, 12:18 PM

Does that surprise any of us? No, unusual is his norm and we like him like that. We will listen tonight. Go peckery!

Posted by: peckery 17-May-2004, 05:24 PM

Posted by: Annabelle 17-May-2004, 08:54 PM

Tell us more about Black Lilly?
I'll bet she could come down south and we could have her up and yodeling within 2 days.
And now let's hear more about "ask the drummer".
Where did you have your sock monkey at in the studio? There was so much laughing I didn't get the last of what he said.
Songs were good! Very relaxing listening tonight!
Keep us posted on your next appearance Peckery (little sock monkey)
I hope you had the sock monkey properly dressed for his appearance tonight.
Thanks for sharing the wonderful music!
Annabelle

Posted by: Annabelle 17-May-2004, 08:57 PM

Ok, who's the big boy of the group?

But he can hit notes like a girl?

Come on P, give who is it!?

Posted by: Raven 17-May-2004, 09:07 PM

The big boy is Bo Boom Boom Wallace you can see his pic at http://www.arminta.net/Web%20Page/bio.html scroll to the bottom of the page.

The last thing that I said (that's me) that you couldn't understand for the laughter was "that's when we got an alarm installed at our house"

the Peckery really is mostly harmless

Posted by: Raven 17-May-2004, 09:08 PM

BTW Annabelle thanks for the flowers

Posted by: Annabelle 18-May-2004, 01:15 PM

Raven, Arminta has a beautiful voice. I really enjoyed the music and where did Peckery have his sock monkey ya'll were talking about...can't he leave the kids at home once in a while?

When is the next time ya'll will play again?

Posted by: Raven 18-May-2004, 03:06 PM

He had it right on his snare drum with all of it's sock monkey cloths off (he can be really twisted) Tau Tau thought is was just a towel on first glance

We are taping another Radio interview in Chicago that will be on the net the 5th of June. But that will be Arminta and myself only.

We have quite a few shows on the books. (mostly in the mid-west) We are hoping to expand our horizons by next year to include some more distant festivals and acoustic venues.

We played last fall at the Verizon Center in Atlanta - isn't that pretty close to you Annabelle?

Our next show is at Beatniks in Marion,IN at the end of the month. Then we will have a bit of a hiatus while the Peckery makes a trek to his home country (California) for a month and then will be back on track kicking off the 4th of July at the Claddagh Irish Pub in Columbus,OH with the full band.

BTW I am going through the list of fests for the reunion and I hope to make it to one or 2 this year that make it through the preliminary check list. Perhaps Arminta and I will be able to meet you then.

Maisky came to a show in Chicago a few months ago and we got to meet him. It was quite a suprise. I didn't expect him to be 6'4" and 225lbs of solid muscle. He looks good for a man of 34

Peace

Mikel

Posted by: Annabelle 18-May-2004, 07:35 PM

O, Mikel, you have taken up lieing in your old age haven't you? Maisky 6'4", 225, solid muscle but 34? I thinketh you areth a great kidder! 34? come on, everything else I believe since he's my personal slave. Nope not sharing! He's mine.

Atlanta is about 2 hours north of me but let me know if you guys play there.

Also let everyone know where and when you guys will be playing and especially if you go to any festivals. Everyone is pitching in and checking out the festivals so we can have this square dance at the best one for everyone. It would be great to get together with others from this site before 2008 if possible and get their input into organizing this thing.

I'll be attending the one in Tenn Oct 1 so hope other's will join me there to check it out.
But again, I really enjoyed the music! Thanks!

Posted by: Raven 18-May-2004, 08:22 PM

Annabelle

I never said he was 34 I said that he looked good for a man of 34

Arminta and I may very well come to the fest in October.

Peace

Mikel

Posted by: Annabelle 18-May-2004, 09:48 PM

Sorry I thought you meant he WAS 34! Now where is he anyway. I haven't seen him in days. Hiding again....

Let me know if you make the Tenn Fest on Oct 1st. I'll be the redheaded lady with the socktriplets in the stroller.
