Mike Tempo and his band The Bonedaddys, who I have previously featured on this blog have a new cd out called “waterslide”. You can listen to clips and order it from CD Baby. Read the following liner notes:



The Bonedaddys are L.A.’s original “Worldbeatniks” (since 1985) and one of the very first American bands to be described as Worldbeat. Well known for their live shows, The Bonedaddys now present their 6th album, “waterslide.” The Bonedaddys songs feature soulful vocals and a twin guitar attack with saxophone propelled by bass, drums and percussion. The 13 grooves on “waterslide” are a merry-go-round of styles and range from rock, blues, mambo, soca, Latin, psycho-billy two-step and rock-steady to a twang afro-surf meets spaghetti-western instrumental. “waterslide” is a gumbo stirred up in light refracted through a prism called Los Angeles, California, USA. All songs are designed to move butts of all persuasions.

Here is a nice sax riff from “Ought To Give It Away“.

My training tonight was done at the track. For time, 3 rounds,

800 meter run
50 push-ups
50 air squats
(perfect form)
Time was 24:40
Splits: 7:12/9:00/8:27

I haven’t been doing much metcon training of late so my running sucked as did the squats. The push-ups, as expected, were easier. I need to add at least one metcon in each 3 day training cycle.
