Johnny's home in the sticks. Good times are had here.

Yes this is where I live. I've just renovated it a bit to improve the recording studio space a little bit. My next big project at the moment is converting the basement into a pub and grill as well as a live music venue. When I'm not touring you can usually find me here recording or doing whatever I can to keep busy. This is also the headquarters for Flying Boxcar Records. Right here in my house! I extend an open hand to any of my friends or artists that want to stop by to visit or record. Checking out the grounds is pretty relaxing. Creeks and waterfalls all around the place here.

Roxy: Gorgeous, darlin'. The wrap-around deck makes me want to sit outside and smoke all night while listening to the birds.

Studio renovations done!


At first it was pretty much a dingy hole in the basement. I really put some care and time into this little space. I'm glad to see it finished and will finish the bar/lounge area that I plan to use as a performing space for smaller bands that are a 5 piece or less. Basically a single artist's venue with more pop. It'll be loud down there and that's kind of what I want. I want your ears to ring while you order your drink. Love the way the studio turned out though. Keep looking for pictures once the building's done!

Johnny: Show up any time dear. Though it's hell driving out here unless you own a 4x4 or a vehicle with all wheel drive. You can only go so far before you have too hoof it. It's for privacy purposes and I like to see who's coming. If nobody's outside. Follow the sound or check the basement. We gotta buzzer on the door that rings down there.

Erich: it depends on the vehicle. I still have a r32 skyline stuck outside of Johnny's old place. The mud can be very unforgiving there. 600 up and all wheel drive did not help.

Johnny: I got to admit. It's too beautiful of a car to just explode. But what the hell. Anyway my search for a personal venue of my own ended at the discovery of an old dilapidated general store in town. I'll be converting into a music venue here soon. Gonna put a restaurant and small stage in the bottom. A nice little dance hall up top. Got a shit load more of renovations though. I like the look of the place. BTW Roxy you can come and press the buttons, and mine. Heh heh.

erich: you can make all the import fans cry and turn it into a chicken coop. i think they'd rather you whiz in their faces than destroy that car. love the building,that's a venue i'd love to hang in. looks like the kinda place that would have fantastic acoustics and just ooze character.

Roxy smiles as she finally reaches the house, her face streaked with sweat. She had completely disregarded any advice Erich and Johnny had given her about having to walk part of the way, and wore heels anyway. She had slipped her shoes off half way there, but now her feet were bleeding, bruised and dirty. "The things I do for attractive men..." She whispers to herself as she finally reaches porch and rings the bell. "Hello, mister!" She calls into the door.

Opened the door with a raised eyebrow. "You look like shit. Somebody didn't listen to good advice. Bet your feet hurt." He would not win the grand prize for best dressed at the moment. Seeing as his get up was a plaid work shirt, worn out jeans, and moccasins. He held the door open for her. "At least you made it one piece. Congrats for not getting lost." He gave her a wink and ushered her inside.

"Yeah, at least I did that right," Roxy says back with a laugh as she comes in and quickly wipes her feet on the welcome mat. "Wow. This place is even more beautiful on the inside than it looked on the outside..." She says, looking around the place. "Show me around."

"Purposely deceptive you could say." He looked around a bit. "Not much here to mention. This is just the den pretty much. Fireplace and what not." So he kept walking through his house. Taking her through the kitchen and built in bar. "You know I have a kitchen. But I hardly use it." Opening the door that lead out from the kitchen into a window and screened in back porch. "Hot tub and an indoor grill. Filters out all the smoke. There's a bigger one outside on the wrap around deck. But it's too cold to go out and use it right now." He took her back inside and down stairs into the recording studio. "Just built in a separate lounge and bar to go with it. Got magazine covers and all that important stuff down here. There's one or two guest rooms down here as well. When I get around to it I hope to throw in an indoor pool. But it's not too impressive. Nicer than where I used to live."

Roxy keeps quiet throughout the tour, only letting out little gasps and "oohs" every once in a while. "Man, I thought my apartment was cool because it had central heating and air..." She finally says when the tour is over. "It's awesome. Don't ever stop livin' here."

"Don't plan on not living here any time soon. Unless by some freak accident the place burns down or explodes. That'd really suck. Anyway, you want a drink or something? You've been standing way too long so it's time for you to sit down and actually rest some. I still have a good impression to make if I haven't yet." He smirked and folded his arms across his chest whistling a bit.

Roxy laughs. "I'd love a drink, thanks, darlin'." She says back as she goes over to the bar and starts mixing up her own. "Oh, jeez, sorry. Did you want to make it? I've been workin' as a bartender for so long, sometimes I forget that other people know how to make drinks as well..."

"Suit yourself. But I can make most any liquor based drinks. Start throwing in fruit and getting fancy then I get lost." He smiled and sat down at the bar splaying his arms out on the table. A canvas of ink running up both sleeves. "I can hold my own to a point around a bar."

Roxy laughs again as she finishes her White Russian and takes a sip. "I went to bartendin' school once I got my Associates degree. It was what I really wanted to do, but my ma always told me that I needed to get a college education before followin' dreams, or something like that. I don't remember. I never really listened to my ma." She shrugs and smiles. "Do you want anything?"
