  2. Tony Kinsel says:

    I’ve been getting alot of e-mails, asking about my health. Thank You All for thinking about me. I went to my orthopaedic surgeon today, who looked at the MRI pictures and said it looks like the infection, while still there, has been reduced since he saw me last week. He still doesn’t want to cut into my leg unless he has no other choice, since I’m diabetic and don’t heal well, according to him. So, he gave me more antibiotics and pain pills and told me to see him again next Monday. He didn’t even mention hospitalization with IV antibiotics, like he’d been talking about last week as a possibility. So, thanks to everybody who thought about and even prayed for me! I should be able to do the contest show, and my DJ show this weekend with no problems, and, hopefully, will be feeling much better, by then. (But, please feel free to vote for my picks to show your sympathy for my condition! LOL)

    I am so glad to hear that, so you can celebrate your anniversary and birthday too. Looking forward to the show this weekend.

    Hey, Hoss, I just voted for Michelle & Melinda and my vote didn’t register!!!
    (Just Kidding!) I actually checked before & after I voted, and my vote showed up as soon as I cast it. The only voting prolem I see is that my favorites this month, Michelle & Melinda, are not getting enough of them. I think I may actually have seen these two girls several years ago, playing for tips outside a club in Port Aransas. I remember them looking pretty much the way they look in their MySpace picture, only younger. They were good then, too, I even gave them a 5 dollar tip, something I never do! They’ve definitely got my votes this month.

  4. Rosie Moreno says:

    Normally, it’s a no-brainer who to vote for in this contest, (because I usually like everbody Tony picks!), but last month I was voting for Shelby Downing, along with Ashley Austin, so my votes negated each other. This month, there’s several groups that I like other than Tony’s, like Dee’s Life Of Riley & Cosmic Gypsies (I was in the groove!). So, now I’m voting a split ticket, as the politicos would say, voting for Life Of Riley and the awesome Michelle & Melinda. I don’t know at this point who I’d rather see in 1st place, so long as they both make it to the finals in December!

    Hey HOSS!

    Looking forward to the show today! I will be off stage around 4:00! Hey one other thing. I was wondering when Myself and Dee get 2 hours of air time to promote our picks. I was starting to think Tony was some kind of wizard on the picks until I read the comments and saw his post promoting all his picks and what time he was going to play them! LOL I thought he had grandma on an 18 hour timer! LOL 5 of the top 10 pick’s. He needs to go to VEGAS! LOL (Sniffing the air around me) (Does anyone smell FISH)! LOL

    Here’s another of the “unfair DJ Tony” comments, like a certain un-named sour-grapes person from last month posted. If you and Dee would like your own show every week on HossTheBoss, I’m sure that Don can set you up. All you need is your computer, and SKYPE, and Hoss to tell you how to get hooked up with his computer. I may be sick right now, but I do intend to do my show this Sunday night, and I’ll be playing alot of album cuts from Michelle & Melinda, Garfunkel & Oates, Scufflegrits, Judge Parker, Macon Greyson, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Coy Moore Band and Romancing The Devil. Unfortunately, at the moment, I only have the 1 new song from Kevin Fowler, and 2 from the Scooter Brown Band, but that might change by next weekend. Hope you’re listening this Sunday night, and then voting accordingly. By the way, as of this morning, I think I have 6 in the top 10!

    Rick Jackson Reply:

    6 out of 10 Hmmm guess we do need our our Show Dee! Dale (Tony’s Fan’s) Make my point even more. Maybe we can be the wizard of picks also!

    Dee Reeves Reply:

    Hey I dont need any more work Tony, so Im fine besides I have the very fishy unfair advantage of not being singular and only being here as a rep of Steve Carlson Fans.com and whose members along with others are doing a damn good job of keeping our picks away from the bottom. I think Hoss may have the short straw here lol.
    I am glad to see you are about today.
    Rick hope you have a good gig.

    Also, I have been doing my 2 hour DJ show every Sunday night, mostly live, since last June. Do you and Dee have that much time to devote to this? It would be nice to hear some of the groups that you have “discovered”, Rick. I, myself, have signed up 193 groups and individuals to play on HTB since I started doing this about a year and a half ago, and my entire show play-list, (I hate that word), is made up of songs from those groups. That’s why I call it “The Tony Kinsel & Friends Show”, because everyone I play is on my friend’s list on MySpace and have personally given me permission to play their music, including David Allan Coe, Billy Joe Shaver, Max Stalling, and Little Texas (who I took to #3 last June with “God Blessed Texas”), names you might have heard of somewhere in this contest! Is this a bitchy enough comment for you, Hoss? I think my painkillers are wearing off!! I’m sorry, Rick, remember, this is all supposed to be friendly rivalry in this contest, and all the participants are winners, as far as I’m concerned, both the groups & the DJ’s. Looking forward to hearing your picks this afternoon, as I hope you are mine. LMAO

    By the way, surrounding your odious comments with “LOL”s doesn’t make them smell any better for those of us that are fans of Tony’s groups!!! Cross Canadian Ragweed and Judge Parker will live forever in our hearts and in our minds!!

    Hoss Reply:

    I think I’ll just sit this one out! hahahahahahahahaha!

    :)

    You guys kill me!

    Dee Reeves Reply:

    Sit this one out???? well lets bring you in with the controversy of “womens minds” how do they work? are you saying we are hard to understand/ and we are not straight talking? We think we are, in fact we are sure that we say what we mean….

    Hit me back with that in fact Randy where do you stand on that? lol or are you still looking for your boat?

    Tony Kinsel Reply:

    My wife and I have been married since October 18th, 1974, 2 days after my 22nd birthday, and 4 days before I joined the Navy to support my new family of Peggy, and soon to be “little Draystin”, our firstborn, whose name is actually Eric. After all these years I think I know the way Peggy’s mind works, just as she does mine. She is not hard for me to understand, but other women, who knows? Everyone has their own agenda, and everyone, both male and female, present different faces to different people. It all depends on what they want out of the relationship. And, yes, I know that women frequently let men think they have the upper hand, but we all know better than that. Or should!

    Dee Reeves Reply:

    So hopefully next week all being well you can be on air getting ready to celebrate your 35th wedding anniversary, I really hope you will be. I will join you with glass in hand to toast that and my daughters sixteenth birthday.

    You got room on the bench for me Hoss? This is getting good!!

    I am glad this month is so far all lighthearted and just before I get labeled as being a Womens Lib activist I would like to say that I am a realist, I work in a mans environment and have found that it really is a mans world… (well we like to let them think it is lol).
