At least there's Pee Wee (11/28/06)
So, to say I was dissapointed with my final moments with WWE is quite an understatement. It was comforting to read all your comments and emails when I got home. I appreciate that you were able to see I did my best in the situation that was handed to me to give you guys an entertaining match and play along and be a professional with the other stuff that went along with my "big farewell night". BUT......... that's NOT why I am writing. If that were why I was writing it'd probally be about 10 pages long and with a bunch of ****s and capitol letters. But I don't want to think about negative things because I have a killer story for you guys. It has absolutely nothing to do w/ the Luchagors, but I have nowhere else to write about this, so until I do, .... here I am!! So my mom and step dad came to the show. I planned on getting a low key bite to eat w/ them and Adam (edge, duh). So Adam said he knew of a place that we could still grab some grub that late and we were gonna meet my folks there. I walk in to this loungey bowling alley where we have the top floor reserved and all the guys and gals of the WWE are there yelling SUPRISE! except Carlito, who is singing Happy Birthday... So, were bowling, eating, drinking and stuff when Adam makes an announcement for everyone to have a seat. Out comes the cake (@which time Carly, again, starts singing Happy Birthday ) and a video starts playing where all the guys and gals start saying a bunch of really sweet mushy stuff. Adam had planned this whole thing out, .... pretty cool huh? I havent even got to the good part............ So this video is playing and who is the last person on the video wishing ME well in my retirement?????....................FUCKING PEE WEE HERMAN!!!!!!!!!!! So my last TV moments werent perfect, but Adam could not have pulled anything cooler and I felt pretty damn special to have such cool friends and to hear PEE WEE HERMAN say my name to me. I am still in shock. You guys are awesome, I'll be in touch soon, but if you need me, I'll be in my living room w/ my message from Paul Reubens on loop. Pee-Wee rules, and so do you guys. Take Care, Amy
New York Dolls (11/30/06)
Just got back from the New York Dolls. They Totally rocked. The whole show rocked. The Charms, The Chesterfeild Kings, Supersuckers, and the Dolls. They could teach a bunch of kids a thing or two bout rockin. So, if your up for gettin schooled, check em out when they come to your town. My friend Eric Scealf from The Unsatisfied was there. They rule cant wait to play a show in Chattanooga w/ them. Chattanooga will never be the same, again. So Ive gotten close to a million calls about appearances, ok, well maybe 100,000 thousand. Its nice to get all those calls, but you guys are gonna have to wait. I need an F*in break, 7 years on the road will do a sister in. I'll probally start doin a LITTLE BIT in February. Hey, I told you guys, I'm kickin back. I've earned this time. I'll come visit yall soon enough Take care and rock out, xxoo, amy
Star Bar Show (12/11/06)
The show at the Star Bar was fun, but I didn't realize until the next day that no one took pictures. Everyone was too busy rocking out, so I guess I can't be upset with that. We also planned on puttin a couple songs up from our performance recorded off the sound board, but it didn't sound too good because the sound guy forgot to hit record.... oh well, there will be more shows. Can't wait til the show tomorrow, and I'll make sure someone gets pics. BTW, don't expect to see us in monster makeup, those pics were just from our show on Halloween @ the Clermont Lounge.
so it's a little late... (12/19/06)
I know in cyber world its eons old, but if I wrote all of you snail mail, you'd just be getting it. So the Bouncing Souls/ Circle Jerks show was pretty damn cool. It was a bonus to see the Sreet Dogs cuz all I knew about them was their singer was from Dropkick Murphys. I thought they stole the show. I was trying to downplay my excitment for getting to play this show. Theres always something about building something up as the greatest thing ever, and it never quite is. I figured people would just be showing up by the time we were finishing our set because I knew we were going on so early. But it was pretty cool, everyone that was there seemd to be into it, especially for not knowing our songs. Jake had food poisioning and was so sick he could barley stand up and puked on stage. That sucked, but the show was still alot of fun. It meant alot to me to play that night. 7seconds/ Circle Jerks was my 1st show in '89 @ the Metroplex right here in Atlanta (no I dont call it The ATL, and neither should you!). I knew that show had changed my life forever, but I didn't know just how full circle it would come by getting to play with the Circle Jerks 17 years later!! The guys even said they liked our set! Some of you have mentioned our upcoming shows section is empty. We are going to be recording a pretty full length album in January and then we'll start back rockin live after that. Once the album comes out we'll start getting ready to take over your town for a night, so watch out. I'm going to be working on our Luchagors.com site this week, so look for merchandise to be available there. Weve gotten alot of overseas requests, and we hear ya. we'll make sure our stuff is available to you, too. The weather here is amazing its been in the 70's! You cant keep me inside, so me and Kenz are out to catch the last few hrs of daylight. Take care guys, amy
Merry Xmas and Feliz Navidad! (12/26/06)
Hope everyone had a Merry Xmas. I know I did. My brother came in town and just spent time hanging with the family. Thanks for all the holiday wishes we all appreciate them. We've also been busy scheduling some dates in March, so we may be headed your way. When weve got things confirmed, we'll let you know!- Amy
Happy New Years and stuff (01/01/07)
Happy New Year! Hope you guys had a good, but not too good of a new year's eve celebration. I decided to keep it mellow on amateur night. I am excited this new year as I am beginning a new life. I look foward to new challenges and opportunities. Sometimes daily life can become so overwhelming that you can lose sight of what drives you, and makes you happy. It's really important for me to live life feeling inspired by each day, and have fun with the challenges. I welcome figuring out just what that will be this year. Learning how to sing, write songs, and play instruments with The Luchagors is fun to me. Cooking dinner at home, going for hikes with my dog, and not worrying about the latest drama is fun to me . I don't have a plan yet for 2007, but I love that. I can't wait to see what happens with The Luchagors and who knows what else. I had a hell of a ride with the WWE, however, I don't plan on doing too many wrestling related appearances. I've already done it. I did it when I felt high walking through the curtain, I did it on the verge of tears, I did it when it was my whole life, and I did it when I wished it was. So, no- I am not "back on the circuit", I am not available to anyone that wants to throw some cash my way. I look foward to staying in touch with all of the awesome people I have met and will meet through my career in wrestling. I do look foward to doing a few appearances with old friends, as well as maybe some new ones. I hope all of you look towards a great new year and if you don't like something- change it. See ya around.............maybe- amy
You guys really do rule (01/17/07)
So I was really proud of everybody with over 10,000 people free to say whatever they wanted, you guys behaved remarkably well. I'd been getting alot of adds posted on the comment page (lame) lately. I wanted that space to be where people could voice their opinions, you don't have to even like the band and you were free to voice that as well. I don't know if someone got into my page or what, but for now, I am pre approving all comments- sorry, guys. Also, the only bulletin I posted was about the press release. I dont use any mobile alerts, IM, OR any other pages on myspace. So, if someone claims to be me other than coming from here, it's not- no exceptions. Oh, and don't yell at me or guilt trip me about not commenting back. I do read everything and appreciate your enthusiasm. Things are about to get crazy w/ the band- I mean crazy good! Ok, talk at you all soon and PLAY NICE!- amy
I posted that as a bulletin, too. Hey also we keep getting friend requests on the other luchagors page, I check it sometimes, but we really want to shut that one down, so if you know anyone over there let them know to come to the other side. Also, no bullshit, and I know you've heard it before, bbut we are meeting up with our webmaster today!!! we already have shirts, stickers and patches that we'll sell on there and were each going to do a weekly update, so I promise....... its getting closer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!- amy
El Santo and The Luchagors (02/07/07)
On the day we were all excited to start recording our record, our day got even more awesome! We got a call from Cartoon Network asking us to be a part of the promotion for Santo's new animated series. He was so surprised when I walked it and greeted him, as I hadn't seen him since the WWE was in Mexico. I have never felt a stronger presence around someone who is probably 5'6". If you are not familiar with him, you should check out some of his work. Wrestling is just the start. I think the movies the he and his father made are the best. so anyways, they interviewed the band and we all got to share our love of Santo! The makeup artist had to hold Troy's hand as she busted his TV makeup cherry. Shane's classic statement was that there are only 3 cross cultural icons- Mickey Mouse, Godzilla and SANTO, talk about some profound shit, and if that doesn't make the sound bite reel, I'll be surprised. I was a motor mouth, and Jay reflected on how he's been in the band 8 weeks and just took a picture that will be hung in his house forever. It was a great start to an awesome all night session in the studio. Troy rocked it til 3am, and we finished drum tracking the next day. We are plugging away on the record and it's really cool to feel all the awesome energy bouncin off everyone when we are rockin it in the studio. I'll keep you guys posted- amy
It's getting closer!! (03/17/07)
We just finished all the tracks for our impending album. I don't pat myself on the back too often, but IT SO ROCKS!!!! I can't wait to unleash it to the masses. Rachel still has to mix it and it still has to mastered and stuff, but soon! So Matt Roberts came back in town to shoot the band on one of our last days in the studio. We got a bunch of good stuff and I'm sure you will see more of that around. Our friend Evan Bartleson from the band Black Daniels came in on the last night and documented us laying down the final tracks. We had some friends come into the studio to help yell on some gang vocal stuff. Stacey6, bass player and back up screamer for Damage Report came in and yelled for us, as well a long time friend of the band Eric Snoddy. You guys might remember him from my book as 'Noodlehead', or maybe not. Our friend Melissa was being shy at first, but had a blast yelling along to The Luchagors. It was a great end to a great recording session. Well, we had fun, Rachel was having a hard time with us bein all crazy and social, but that's what he holds the whip for! We are all really proud of this and even the guys, who have all been in bands their whole adult lives have really pushed ourselves to make this record something really special.
