ABOUT THE JOHNNY

John Croghan

Raised on the wild high plains of Colorado, legend has it that the newborn Johnny reached up and played the Tennessee Flat Top Box with his Pappy's beard hairs. Thus began the lifetime love of sweet, sweet country music that is the JC. More >

The Time...it is NOW

Family;
OK so tomorrow is the big night. I am so excited I dont know if I will sleep tonight. Pass out, maybe; sleep, no. Not just because of the show, but also because my brother loaned me his '73 F250 Ranger. The truck's name is Uncle Jesse, a nod to the nearly identical truck driven by Denver Pyle's character in the Dukes of Hazzard (Daisy: you were my first true love).
So I am thinking of buying it. Cons: it's an automatic (for wimps) and a 2WD (for Kentuckyians). Pros: it rides like a friggin Cadillac, and looks really, really cool. I am over the part about it being a Ford, since I'm from a long line of GM men. Jesse may not be a Chevy, but he's family

Remember-tomorrow show at the lounge! It will be so awesome, I cant even guarantee safety!!
email me for discount tix!!

upcoming

Hey check out the calandar! That's right family 2 more dates added!! And they are coming up soon!! Email me for some discount tickets, and I will respond by melting your face clean off a la Raiders of the Lost Ark.

You may remember my very first posting on the JC.com. It was about the sweetest car ever, the second-gen pontiac Firebird Trans Am SE. well, you cant keep a good 'bird down, and Year One (a parts dealer) is selling restored thunderchickens painted in theme of the famed Bandit. Note the proper, modern suspension and the 454 cubic inch V-8. There was mention of 650 bhp coming out of the rear wheels. Mercy. I wept. Mainly at the fact this car is 60 to 100 thousand dollars I can't justify away. Maybe if they made a fuel-efficient Green Bird

the day of the Black Hen

my unjustifibly lucky friend in Wichita Sara saw George Strait this weekend. I did not. Not cool. Evidently King George's performance is a bit wooden. What are you gonna do? He's like 60.
I did however go to see the Bad Directions this weekend at the Walnut Room. The WR has keenly booked a bunch of good country/americana acts over the next dos semanas, concurrent to the Stock Show in town. Whisky Trip and 3 miles west and friends all next week.
Did i tell you I got a Rockmount Ranchwear cowboy shirt for my birthday? I wont say who from, but they think im huge.Those of you who know the stuntman know I wear my shirts Burt-Reynolds-style: nice and tight, plenty of chest hair showing. I am heading back there to try on a different size because the color matches my new guitar (named George also). I may or may not go to the feed store for a new hat too
Why the new clothes you ask? Becasue the Stuntman and friends have booked a triumphant return-to-glory show on the 26th. Yes sir at the Larimer Lounge, with in Buckskin Stallion, one of my favorite Denver bands. DO NOT MISS THIS SHOW! you will regret it the rest of your life. Email me and I will send you coupons that get you half off PLUS a free beer

more later-I will report on my trips to the rodeo this week :)

yea, verily, I say unto thee: let's rock

OK so I have made my New Year's resolution: to watch Over the Top in its entirety and re-create Sly Stallone's in-cab gym. I like my odds.
Also GREAT news: Bradley Weaver of the Bad Directions has agreed to play in the John Croghan Band. I should draft all the Bad D's. Brad melted my face completely off at new years...he played lead guitar and sang vocals simultaneously on Rock Band. He joins a crack staff, including myself, Ryan Elwood on the skinz and an empty tape dispenser. I better get more juice for the smoke machine.

later, tater
