RAIN, RAIN, GO AWAY
We don't want no rain! We want baseball! We want a World Series win for the Tigers! We don't want no rain! We need Sonny Elliot! Okay, I'm better now. See you at the Riff's Trick or Freak
Halloween bash on Friday at the State Theatre. Hopefully it won't rain.

SO CLOSE WE CAN SMELL IT!
Congrats to the American League Champion Detroit Tigers!! What an incredible 9th inning dinger from Maggs! For a lot of people, this will be the first time witnessing the Tigers in a
World Series. For some of us, it'll be the 2nd time. Still others, the 3rd time!
I remember in '84, me and a buddy were watching the last game of the ALCS when I turned to him & said, "Ya know, if the Tigers win, it's gonna be one helluva party downtown around
Stadium..." We decided we could listen to the game on the radio on the way down there.
We parked the car just as the Tigers won the game & advanced to the World Series. As I was walking along having a good time with the fans on the street, I saw a guy walking toward me...a really BIG guy. Let's call him"Lurch." He was wearing a beer soaked Tigers t-shirt & had a determined scowl on his face. I was sure Lurch was gonna beat me with my own shoe for my pocket change & my Members Only jacket. He walked up to me, grabbed the front of my shirt and lifting me off the ground, got right in my face & said, "F***in' Tigers man," let go and walked away. After I shook that off, I saw a person with a big hunk of the field rolled up under his arm. I asked him if I could have a piece of it & he tore off a corner & tossed it to me. I had until it became just a chunk of dirt and I had to toss it.
Those are just a couple of my memories of the '84 season & what a storybook season it was.
This has been a storybook season, too. Those of you who weren't around in '84 should take note that this might not happen again in your lifetime...then again that's what we said in '84...and '68.
GO TIGERS!!!

DAMN YANKEES!!!
WOW! How great it is that the Tigers are move forward & the Yankees are no where in sight!!
Bonderman & Rogers were incredible! I thought it quite funny that, everytime something pivitol happend in those games, Jeter had a look of disbelief on his face. Tiger's & A's in Oakland for game one of thier series Tuesday.
This Wednesday on your way to the "AeroCrue" show at DTE, make sure you stop into Ruby Tuesday's. I'll be hosting an AeroCrue pre-party from 5pm to 8pm with Riff swag & other cool stuff for you. Grab a burger & a couple cold ones before ya head over to the show. Saturday I'm at SCAREFEST in New Haven from 8pm to 10pm. Get your friends together & get there to have the crap scared out of you. Remember to bring an extra pair of skivies, just in case.
I have been listening to the new JET cd. It's harmonys & melodys remind me of The Beatles. seriously, it's very Beatle like in places. Not as rockin' as the last cd, but I think it's pretty cool. Give it a listen, you might like it too.
