“I Blinked Then She Was Gone” – Guitar Zack – ©2011 ASCAP

“I Blinked Then She Was Gone”

Why were we all shot into this world?
Why do we depend on good referrals?
What’s the point in even having morals?
No one knows.
Is it really right to kill for food?
Is there such a thing as solitude?
Is it wrong to be in an angry mood?
No one knows.
Will there ever be a “World War Three”?
Will there ever be a world with peace?
Will I ever find my gottdamm keys?
No one knows.
Who’s the Architect of the Universe?
Who amongst my friends will be in a hearse first?
Is this really love or is this a curse?
No one knows.
But
She Said
I Know
And
I Said
Bull Shit
She Smiled
I Blinked
Then She
Was gone…
gonnnnneee…
gonnnnnnneeee…
gonnnnnnnnnneeeeee…
Why’s a magnet work the way it does?
Can there ever “is” if there never “was”?
Why do reefer sticks give us a buzzz?
No one knows.
What does Santa do when a fire’s lit?
How does anybody know when to quit?
Is there such a thing as an “Endless Pit”?
No one knows.
Will Time ever stop or always go?
Will I get to raise a son I’ll know?
Will I always have all ten my toe?
No one knows.
What’s a memory? -And what’s a thought?
Is it really wrong if we don’t get caught?
Why did a Beatle have to get shot?
No one knows.
But
She Said
I Know
And
I Said
Bull Shit
She Smiled
I Blinked
Then She
Was gone…
gonnnnneee…
gonnnnnnneeee…
gonnnnnnnnnneeeeee…

New “Guitar Zack Solo Ack” show added and reminder of Casino Show Aug 20!

Howdy Folks! I got a double header next weekend! I’ll be starting off the weekend nice and easy with a solo acoustic set from 9-11 on August 19th at the Gypsy Cafe. It’s a Small place so call to reserve a table (412) 381-4977 or 381-GYPSY. Then SATURDAY NIGHT AUG 20 —->GUITAR ZACK AND THE DAVES ARE PLAYING THE RIVERS CASINO IN PITTSBURGH! from 9-1 with special guests! But before all that, I’m playing tonite at The Warehouse Cafe in Bethel. Every Wednesday we (The Jaminators- Harry McKorkel on Bass and Smilin’ Dave on drums–((not Dave Katonik- he doesn’t smile as much))) host a jam session where any one who can solidly play blues based jam songs can come up with their instrument and sit-in! Each group of players gets 3 songs; then we rotate. Once everyone gets a chance to play and if there’s time, we start mix matching players to jam a second time! Open invite to the public! Free to get in! Good food too! In the meantime, all this morning and afternoon I’ve been drawing my CD case Cartoon! Getting closer to the goal! Have a Good Day!

hope to see yinz!

A free novelty song for your enjoyment only

I will attempt to record at least one cover song per week but record it in whatever style or fashion I so desire at the time! why? to be funny. and to try a new marketing idea- the weeklyness of it, will give you something to look forward to every week! The quality of the productions will be basement home studio quality- which has charm sometimes- and The Fact That I’m telling you my marketing plan as I go- THIS IS THE BUILDING OF A ONCE IMAGINARY EMPIRE CALLED GKNÄÜÏSH INDUSTRIES! IT IS VERY REAL. AND THRIVING! This Guitar Zack Blog’s purpose is for Zack Wiesinger as human to detatch from his family, friends, and every one else in his life and Become a real life fictional star as Guitar Zack! Guitar Zack’s public Persona is different from his normal life- but he always seems to blur the lines on occasion in the public’s eye- but the friends and family know when he’s going to do a publicity stunt or appearance! So, this is the key to knowing all “Guitar Zack” marketing and Publicity Stunts of the future!!!!! Keep tuning into this blog! In 3 years this blog will be printed as a business journal souvenier book of The Building of The GKNÄÜÏSHEN Civilization! This is not a cult! This is not a religion! This is a Motion Picture, Sound, Permorming Arts, Fabrication, Manufacture, Design, Creatives and Marketing company! Any ways- here’s the track— White Rabbit by ZackWiesinger

Just Got Back from the Open Jam Night at Warehouse Cafe

I just played at the Warehouse Cafe in Bethel, PA with an awesome cast of talent that participates. We’ve been doing a jam every wednesday night for the past 13 weeks or so, and there’s really starting to be a real sense of community developing as the return costumers are constantly meeting and networking with all the newcomers! There was definitely some high energy on that stage tonight! Harry literally blew a 4 inch by one inch hole in his bass amp and you could see bright blue sparks shooting out of the cabinet on voodoo child! I’ll never forget that image of sparks flying out Harry’s amp! The Daves even made an appearance and we did a short set of Peaches en Regalia, Piss Perfect (instrumental version), Escalator Malfunction, and Apostrophe. Doc Schavone brought out his 1954 proto-type TV model Les Paul, and that sucker has the biggest neck I’ve ever choked! So, I just wanted to shout out to all the players that have been supporting the jam and keeping it a thriving living platform to showcase the musical gifts we’ve been blessed with—And a Big Thanks to Smilin’ Dave for setting the whole thing up and letting me play my PeeWee’s Playhouse DVD on the white sheet behind us while we played! I hope to bring different cartoons and such each week- The only requirements is that it’s gotta be visually stimulating because certain videos and movie clips without the sound are bland and lack visual vigor! Anyways, it’s getting late- this is actually a fun way to wind down after the show! I can’t promise I’ll blog after every show the night of the gig, but I will certainly try the following morning if I have enough time! Peace, Goodnight!
