My favorite music store, Musician's Friend, is having an end-of-the-year sale on all overstocks, refurbs, returns, and discontinued gear. They're offering 10% off Everything in their Clearance Department + Free Shipping w/ $99 Purchase. If I had the money I'd probably buy yet another guitar that I really don't have time to play! Oh well someday I'll get my Les Paul... (P.S. You can find more great Musician's Friend deals at Alex's Coupons.)

Of course seeing this sale reminded me of my all time favorite drinking song written back in 1992 by my friend Gavin, who was inspired by one of my favorites phrases from my drinking days (I'm drunk as a monkey!):


DRUNK AS A MONKEY
by Gavin Stewart

I've had more than a few tonight
maybe more than a man should ever have
and you're looking quite good right now
I think I'll tell you exactly how I feel

chorus:
I'm drunk, drunk as a monkey
right down to my simian soul
I'm drunk, drunk as a monkey
want you to be the first to know

don't know how I became like this
right now darwin is rolling in his grave
don't know who put me on rewind
de-evolution is just a state of mind

I won't remember too much of this
I won't remember the words I spoke at you
but I'll span ages in one night's time
and wake up human and then I won't feel fine

One of these days I'll have to post a recording of the song that Gavin made for me recently. It is truly a masterpiece of drunken songwriting.
