I have HAD it
So.
I have been saying how much I like to sing with the Chorus.
That is true.
I never thought, in my whole life that I would be a world champion of anything.
That all changed one Saturday afternoon in July of 1992.
The only person that I have ever called my hero, besides my Dad,
was my first chorus director.
Jim Miller ( chorus director) is someone that I consider larger than life
I have sang in Carnegie Hall, the Chicago Theater, The Superdome, Cincinnnati Music Hall, The Calgary Saddle Dome, The San Francisco Cow Palace, The Miami Convention Center, Freedom Hall in Louisville, The Portland Arena, The Montreal Convention Center, and I don't know how many school auditoriums.
Last night, I went to rehearsal, and parked on the same street I have parked for 10 years
This morning I walked around my truck and saw the scratch
It went from the right rear turn signal
all the way up to the middle of the right hand passenger door
It was done with a knife or something else sharp
It was done on purpose
By one of the people that live in the neighborhood
One of the same people
That attended the free concert
that the chorus put on
in the heat
during the summer
with all the bugs
and the stink from the factories
for free
I wrote the chorus board a letter
telling them that I was leaving after October 15th
Telling them that I was not coming back
until they moved away from a neighborhood
where members cars get broken into
where members cars get vandalized
where members get held up at gun point
I told them that the trailer that I haul and store for free had to be moved
I told them that my son, who had busted his ass to get good grades
so that he could join the chorus
would not be coming
because I could not risk harm to him
I told them this today at noon
Its 10:30
Nobody has written back
Revised cause I was a hot head......
I need a new name
Me" will do
