Congrats to our own Scott Stallone for some of the prestigious licensing affiliations he has recently landed. A great, hardworking writer, producer/engineer. Well deserved my friend.

Fun House

FREE DOWNLOAD - Could this funny song be a true story?
https://soundcloud.com/tony-mecca/fun-house

I was walking at the edge of town with my best friend,
we were hanging around when a dark sky and storm drew near, she said "let’s go to my house, it’s right over there."

She told me to be careful as we walked through the door, she said all her crazy relatives live on the first floor, but just as we entered all the lights went out, we got separated but I heard her shout.

Just head for the stairs and wait for me, don’t stop and talk to anyone that you see, don’t be fooled by magic or sleight of hand … unless you want your soul to forever be dammed.

My best friend lives in a Fun House
filled with silly people who just laugh all day
She told me if I see them not to stare too long,
‘cause if you look them in the eye … you’ll never be the same.

I wound up in the rear vestibule, my hat and coat was taken by a cackling fool who had his pants on backward and wore different color socks, his neck was a spring just like a jack-in-the-box

All I could hear is what my best friend said, but I couldn’t take my eyes off his enormous head, it was swollen and green like a big bull toad, and as I ran down the hallway I heard it explode.

I finally made it up to the second floor, my best friend was standing by an open door. She said I’m glad to see you made it, come right on in, sit down and catch your breath then we can begin.

I said wait a minute baby, what’s on your mind? She said, I got this little game that I play all the time. I’ll be a psychopathic killer, and you’ll be my prey, then when I pull out my axe you try and get away.

I ran through the door, she was hot on my trail. I headed for the stairs and I slid down the rail. Then all her crazy kin threw her down on the ground, they said this girl’s been trouble since the day she was found

I was walking at the edge of town with my best friend, we were hanging around when a dark sky and storm drew near, she said let’s go to my house, it’s right over there. She told me to be careful as we

Congrats to my old friend Patrick Higgins! Pat, a former staff member and Opera House R. S. alum, has been on the road for the last 19 years - traveling the world - with many bands as a road manager, tech, and you name what else. In town tonight, he call me from L.A. yesterday to tell me about his new assignment. Drum tech for Carl Palmer (Asia), and Bass tech for Billy Sherwood (Yes) on the coming Yes/Asia tour. Good work if you can get it! Great job, Kiddo!

Help Our Friends

Help Our Friends …
... Rick Terway & Billy S

I've had the pleasure of playing with Rick Terway in the bands HABITS and MECCA from 1978-1989, and with Billy S more recently in THE HEAVY MENTAL GYPSYS. Unfortunately, both have encountered recent health issues that have produced some heavy medical bills.

My wife Sheryl (better known as Annie Helicopter) and I have decided that all of the profits from our two new CDs should be donated to these two wonderful friends and gentlemen to help them offset some of their financial burden.

So click below and check out the newly released, remixed/remastered editions of PURPLE MONKEYS & PRINCES OF THE NEW DARK AGE, and know that the profits will be donated to help our good friends. Thank you for your help ... Tony Mecca
