Ghostrain formed in Atlanta, GA in the late ‘80s and have toured around the southeast.

They recorded a demo with John Keene and saw their music featured regularly on Album 88 and one of the their songs “Pieces of Me” was selected by Atlanta radio station 96 Rock as the Peach Pick of the Week. In 2011 founding members John King and Glenn Madison started playing together again after a hiatus. They added Loren Haefer on bass and started writing, playing live and recording again. Glenn took time from their current tour to answer a few questions.

MONEY MANAGEMENT

GOING TRAVELING? BE SMART AND SAFE WITH MONEY Going travelling is an incredible experience to have at any time in your life. Whether you are a teenager heading off round the world before you go to University or retirement has prompted you to go and see corners of the globe that you have never seen before apart from on the television.

Travelling will broaden your mind and provide you with lasting memories. However, what you don't want to remember are any money difficulties, so by being a little bit savvy and thinking ahead you can ensure at least the money side of your travelling adventures goes without a hitch.

international activity on your account as abnormal and suspicious and stop any withdrawals from being made. Take it from me that it's a bit of a downer when you are stuck in a foreign country with no access to your money and no cash in your pocket.

This takes me nicely on to the subject of cash. Yes, do take some. Take a nice fat chunk of cash as it is useful even in this age of using plastic cards to pay for everything. You will always need cash for making small purchases, paying taxi drivers and bribing people (only joking!)

Whatever you do though, do not change your money at the airport as it costs a fortune. They are known for having the highest exchange rates around. If you have no other choice then order it from the airport currency exchange a few hours before hand.

Let's start from the very beginning with what may seem like a very obvious piece of advice.

Tell your bank that you are leaving the country. Why? Well, if you don't then you run the risk of your account being frozen. If the bank doesn't know that you are away travel- Now we come to the powerful ling and having the time of your plastic cards. Many people take life then they will identify the credit cards abroad but here is

ENIGMA

a little tip. Why not try a prepaid debit card instead? There are an increasing amount of companies offering this service and a pre-paid debit card is pretty handy to have for several reasons. You can top the card up with cash or from funds in your regular account and then use it like an ordinary card.

Unlike a credit card you can't spend more than what you have available on the card so it is great for sticking to a budget.

The safety aspect is also useful when travelling. It is not connected to your bank account so if it is lost or stolen then there is no chance of the money in your UK account being endangered.

Thinking well ahead, there could well be a time on your travels where you need an international money transfer.

Perhaps you need to send money back home to a loved one or they may need to send you some money in the event of an emergency. If you decide to do this through your bank you

could run into many difficulties on the way ranging from the practicalities of trying to send money from your own bank but in a foreign country to the rates that are charged by the bank for a transfer either to or from the UK. One answer to this is to set up an online payment account before you go. These often have no fees attached to them and even better than that the money is transferred instantly. No bank details are required from either party and with all the latest up to date technology in place such as 128-bit encryption and firewalls you can rest easy that your transfer is safe as well as cheap!

So as you can see a little forward planning can pay off in many different. You will avoid getting your account frozen, get the best exchange rates, stick to your budget and make an international money transfer with ease. What more could a budding traveller ask for?

Another One There was another one on Monday. Another mass shooting. But you already know that.

News travels like wildfire when a mass shooting happens. By now, the reactions are sadly predictable. When the first news hits, we all look first for the quick answers.

Where did it happen? (We feel somehow and mistakenly reassured if the crime scene is far away.) How many victims?

How many killed? Injured? Did they find the guy who did it?

(And it always seems to be a male who commits these horrible acts.) Did they catch him?

Did they kill him? Or did he kill himself? Those are the first questions we ask. The mass media are usually quick to answer them…

Monday’s mass shooting at the Washington D.C. Navy Yard, “suspect” Aaron Alexis was shot and killed while exchanging gunfire with police. The 34year-old IT contractor is still being called a “suspect” as the investigation into the incident remains open. But there’s not much doubt that Alexis was the shooter…

…So the questions about Alexis started flying. Why was he honorably discharged from the Navy Reserve in 2011, despite eight episodes of misconduct?

He had firearms-related incidents in Dallas and Seattle in 2004 and 2010, respectively. He was apparently receiving mental health counseling from the Veterans Administration.

I’m afraid of all the problems that come with cancer and one day passing it on if I have kids. What would you do if you were in my shoes? Should I tell him – give him an out, so to speak?

SL Dear Rocco, I met this girl recently at my work and we really hit it off. She’s really pretty and cool. She stops by every now and then to talk and cut up. I’m trying to get the nerve to ask her out. One of my co-workers says he thinks she’s really in to me.

Well, my best friend came by work the other day and asked me to join him and his new girlfriend for drinks after I got off and I agreed.

When I showed up to meet them – the girl that I was going to ask out is my best friend’s girlfriend!

What do I do? I don’t know if she

was leading me on or if I’m mad at my best friend for ruining my plan.

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - Authorities in Florida said they arrested a woman accused of bilking four people out of more than $100,000 by getting them to invest in toilet fans. Delray Beach police said Sally Berry, 57, of Deerfield Beach, was arrested Tuesday after she convinced four people to invest in the “Pan Fan,” a real device that attaches to a toilet and purifies air, the South Florida Sun Sentinel

reported Thursday. Instead of buying fans, Berry allegedly spent the money on clothes, dinners, spa treatments and other personal expenses, police said.

Berry was charged with fraud and released after posting $4,500 bail.

Keihanaikukauakahihuliheekaha unaele said county officials told her to use her maiden name or shorten her last name. However, she said the name is all she has left of her late husband.

she was fearful. She told them Jackson bragged about branding other women in the past and said he did it to her because she belonged to him. Jackson was charged with a felony count of aggravated assault, causing a serious physical injury.

ARIZONA 49-year-old Christopher Jackson was arrested for branded his initials onto his girlfriend. Are they a pair of kinky fetishists? No. He was mad at her because she wouldn’t go out dancing with him. And just to make sure he did the job right he branded her right on her genitals. Back on May 15, authorities say Jackson had gone to a baseball game. After the game, he wanted to go dancing, but the victim claimed she was too tired.

She told investigators he gave her some pills to stay awake, but she ended up passing out. The victim believes she had been purposely drugged. Court records show Jackson then used a branding tool and a butane torch to burn the initials “CJ” onto her vaginal area. “That’s pretty crazy and kind of scary,” said Brett Schneidt, a neighbor.

“I’ve lived here next to him for 12 years and he always seemed like a normal, calm guy.” Detectives say the woman didn’t come forward until last month because

BOULDER, Colo. - University of Colorado police said a man accused of drunken horseback riding told officers he was traveling to Utah to attend a wedding. CU police spokesman Ryan Huff said police received calls Monday about a man on a horse wandering into traffic in Boulder and some witnesses said they saw the man strike the horse, the Daily Camera, Boulder, reported Tuesday.

Police stopped Patrick Neal Schumacher, 45, of Colorado Springs, who was found to be carrying a pug in a backpack. He also had beer and a black powder pistol in one of his saddlebags, police said. Schumacher, who failed field sobriety tests, told officers he was attempting a 600-mile trip to Bryce, Utah, for his brother’s wedding.

Schumacher was charged with a traffic infraction of riding a horse while under the influence of alcohol and misdemeanor counts of animal cruelty, prohibited use of weapons and reck-

MANCHESTER, England - A British party bus driver said the extra passenger that led to him being fined $688.86 was a blow-up doll, not an actual human. Bash Ali, 41, of Oldham, England, said he was driving the Mercedes minibus from Oldham into a trendy section of nearby Manchester when he was pulled over and cited for using a motor vehicle on a road when the load or passengers were likely to cause danger when police said he was carrying nine people, more than his allowed eight, The Daily Mirror reported Monday.

Ali said the ninth passenger was actually a blow-up doll, but he pleaded guilty to the charge in court because he couldn’t afford a lawyer. He was ordered to pay $688.86 in fines and costs. “I have no faith in the justice system,” he said. Prosecutor Paul Scott said police were confident the bus was occupied by nine humans when it was pulled over March 30. “There are dangers, clearly, for anybody inside the vehicle and anybody outside the vehicle when it is overloaded,” Scott said. “So essentially what the council says is that the vehicle was overloaded and that they were all human beings.”

MONTANA - To all appearances 25-year-old Cody Lee Johnson was in love and excited for his marriage to Jordan Linn Graham, but his relatives suspected that Graham didn’t exactly reciprocate, family friend Tracey Maness said. She was aloof, didn’t want to spend time with his family, Maness said. Johnson told his mother that Graham would change when they got married, Maness said. “Nobody ever could have thought something like this could happen,” she said. On the night Johnson died, Graham told a friend that she meant to talk with Johnson about “having second thoughts about having been married.”

Five days later, Graham admitted to authorities that she and Johnson had an argument, were upset and decided to go to the Loop Trail in the park. They continued arguing on the trail, and it intensified. At one point, she turned to walk away, but Johnson grabbed her arm, she said. She turned around, removed his hand from her arm and “due to her anger, she pushed Johnson with both hands in the back, and as a result, he fell face first off the cliff,” the affidavit said. Graham is now facing a second-degree murder charge.

WIN COMES AT A PRICE Same script different team. The Atlanta Falcons sprinted off to a huge lead Sunday in their home opener against the St. Louis Rams to hold on for a 31-24 win before a packed house at the Georgia Dome. With such a high-powered offense the Falcons continue to let the foot off the gas, which of course let them miss out on last year’s Super Bowl.

career best day for Julio Jones Steven Jackson who was injured or even letting a 21-point lead as he dove for the goal line scorslip to a one possession game, it ing the Falcons’ first touchdown was injuries. Two starters are

The Rams then settled down and mounted a drive as Sam Bradford passed the Rams down to the Falcons’ 32. Then Osi Umenyiora picked off Bradford’s pass that bounced off the shoulder of Benny Cunningham and rumbled into the end zone to make Atlanta’s lead 21-0.

“I don’t know, the ball just kind of bounced off the guy’s hand, and I saw it and picked it off.

Crazy enough, that’s the first interception I’ve ever had in my life. I was able to score with it.

I’m just happy to help this team win,” said Umenyiora.

The first half was great. The second half? Well… especially the third quarter was the thing nightmares are made. After piling up over 300 yards in the first half the Falcon offense shut down in the third quarter gaining only 43 yards in the third quarter as Atlanta’s 24-3 almost completely evaporated. Thanks to come clutch passes by Matt Ryan and the running of Jason Snelling (not Steven Jackson) helped the Falcons win their first game of the season.

The teams exchanged field goals and then at half perhaps changed uniforms.

against his former team. The game started ominously for Jackson who was signed to be the team’s feature back replacing Michael Turner. On the first play from scrimmage Jackson was tackled for a three-yard loss. In three carries he gained zero yards. He did catch one pass scoring from eight yards out. But that touchdown might have been costly. Jackson injured his thigh on the play and did not return to the game.

Jacquizz Rodgers and Jason Snelling took over from there.

The Falcons after running up 301 yards in the first half only managed 43 total in the third quarter. Not only that, Ryan was continuously hassled and sacked twice.

His counterpart, Bradford started to put up numbers and threw two touchdown passes to make the score 24-17 with just under 12 minutes to go.

Ryan then drove the Falcons down on a nine-play 80-yard drive going 8-for-8. Ryan hit five different receivers on the drive. With eight straight completions and a first-and-ten at

After trading punts with the Rams the Falcons started off with the ball on their 16. On third and seven Ryan hit Jones for an 81-yard touchdown extending the lead to 14-0. Jones had his best day as a pro as he hauled in 11 passes for 182 yards.

Ryan also had a really nice game completing 33-of-42 for 374 yards and two scores.

“I think he’s a great player. Julio is in my opinion, one of the very best in the league. Week in and week he’s getting more consistent for us. I think that’s part of the maturation process and part of him becoming the player that I ultimately think he’s going to be. It’s been fun to work with him the last couple of years and I think that we’re at a better place than we’ve ever been and I have a ton of confidence when I look his way,” said Ryan.

The touchdown run was a very big play and he also had the third down conversion.

On third and goal Bradford hit Tavon Austin with 2:09 left to pull within one score.

Opting to try and hold the Falcons on downs instead of attempting an onside kick the Falcons got the ball back on their 20. Ryan completed passes to Jones and Snelling and Rodgers made a couple of nice runs to run out the clock preserving the win.

The Falcons return to the road next week as they travel to South Beach to take on the undefeated Miami Dolphins.

Kickoff is scheduled for 4:05pm and will be aired on Fox.

The Falcons can thank veteran backup back Snelling for help ensure the win Sunday. Sure, Ryan and Jones put up nice – almost gaudy numbers, but Snelling was the only bright spot in the running game, scoring the eventual winning touchdown and as well “It put a lot of guys out on the as making a few key catches to field that normally would not keep the chains moving. have the number of snaps that they had. It was compounded “Jason Snelling has done that by using those backups or the guys that play on special teams.

It was tough; a lot of guys stepped up on both sides of the ball today that were called on.

Their role changed from the opening kickoff to the end of the game,” said Smith The defense once again is an issue – or continues to be an issue. Bradford had plenty of time to throw – especially in the second half. Bradford almost matched Ryan’s numbers throwing for 352 yards completing 32of-55 passes. The Rams actually won the statistics battle gaining more yards and five more first downs than Atlanta. Time of possession was almost equal with Atlanta having the ball for 30:17 and St. Louis 29:47.

If you’re going to go to a festival, drink water for six days before you get there; don’t drink no alcohol.

Okay gang, I have two winners for you this week, which is better than half those bozos did this past week with their NFL “locks”. C'mon, watch some real football, listen to some good tunes, and quit throwing good money after bad …

First up this week is a sister duo from Sacramento by the name of Dog Party. Consisting of Gwendolyn and Lucy Giles, on guitar and drums respectively, Dog Party could be lumped into the White Stripes/Black Keys/every other yahoo in the universe crowd by the musically lazy but that would be wrong. Dog Party's two-piece throw down owes a lot more to punk than any of those other bands do. I almost hate to mention their ages, as that might cause some to rashly and unjustly dismiss this record, but I do not know that I have ever heard a 17 year-old (Gwendolyn) and a 15 year-old (Lucy) rock this hard.

There was a punk band called Sockeye out of Kent, Ohio,

that had as fully formed style and sound this young but that was 1987, so it is not like that this happens often. Most of the tunes dive right in with little build up and that works fine. I had mixed feelings when I first heard this, as it is the perfect summer album with the pop/rock/punk fusion kicking much ass, but summer caught the bus, so what now? Then, it hit me this is the perfect album to summon those summer memories when the days grow short and the nights get long. Good Lord, people, this might - just maybe - be the album of the year. It is definitely top five.

ing when you are still checking for open wounds before gearing up for the evening's festivities. There is a lot of the disconnect felt on Bloc Party's first two albums here, with lines like “You said the size of the buildings will dwarf me/and the shadows will cloak me/and the fumes will choke me” laying the foundation for a collection of songs that come neither to praise nor bury London; instead, the songs document a drive to strike a truce with Cockaigne in the interest of mutual exploitation. The Libertines ventured this musical territory back in what seems like a lifetime ago, but Gaoler's Daughter's take blends The Boys in the Band's sound with The Exploding Boy's sense of unease and dread to create a sterling debut. This is as good a debut as I have heard in quite a while, or at least since I last wrote that line.

Part two of this week's knockout combo is Gaoler's Daughter, a four-piece out of London whose fan-funded debut, “How to Make Time”, will knock your socks off.

Instead of some fresh-faced “young gents make good” sound, the album reeks of the night before's booze, smokes, Man, after too long in the drugs, and sex. This is the wasteland musically, the soundtrack to the next morn- bounty this week is stunning.

Get both of these. Dog Party is a bit more airy whereas Gaoler's Daughter seems a bit more at home for listening to around midnight, but they are both aces in my book. Get hip now.

Y'all be good.

Later taters.

Instead, almost two hours of more musical mastery awaited them.

Everything was literally downhill from this point, and with Steely Dan, that is not a bad thing.

Every artist's concept of the word is different, thus it's nearly impossible to attain. Still, it's a utopia that has driven many songwriters to extreme lengths to attain that dream-like state with their music. That was especially the case for the keyboard and bass playing duo of Donald Fagan and Walter Becker, the masterminds behind Steely Dan. Four decades after they came on the scene, their music is still sending audiences into their own state of nirvana influenced styles with pop-rock There was “Reelin' in the Years”, On a beautiful summer evening sensibilities holds a special place “Kid Charlemagne”, “Rikki Don't at the Verizon Wireless in the hearts of all Steely Dan Lose that Number”, “Hey Amphitheater in Atlanta, a near fans.

Nineteen” and “Black Friday” that had this crowd swaying to and fro. Would I have preferred to here “Any Major Dude Will Tell You” or “Don't Take Me Alive” off of The Royal Scam played on stage? Of course I would have, but honestly, after hearing Aja played from start to finish, everything else Steely Dan performed this evening was a gift.

It's funny how music is viewed by today by the masses. Ask today's generation what a pay phone or an eight-track tape is, and they'll more than likely shrug their shoulders and look it up on their smart phone. Such is the way of the world these. For those of us who grew up in the dark ages, which is anything recorded last century, the past is something we cherish, especially when it comes to music.

This wonderful evening, the older generation was taken back in time to where their skin was smooth, their hair was long (both men and women) and no one had a care in the world. Talk about a 'countdown to ecstasy!'
