i first met mia in algonquin park
she was on a nature discovery quest
and had just killed a wild bear
she was skinning the bear and explaining
how bear meat doesn't get the props it deserves
she had this huge knife in her hand
she pointed it at me and said

"DO YOU KNOW HOW FUCKING TIRING IT IS TO BE CANADA'S MEDIA DARLING? AFTER
THAT GLOBE AND MAIL ARTICLE CAME OUT SINGING MY PRAISES ALL ANYBODY WANTS TO
DO IS GET ME TO WRITE MORE SONGS! ALL I REALLY WANT TO DO IS ROCK SO FOR
CHRIST SAKES GET ME SOME CLASSIC ROCK GIGS!"

i never argue with a woman with a knife
so i put her on the zep 4 album
at the first rehearsal she got in a fistfight with nicky
the two of them are close friends now
then i put her on the floyd album
she spent her pay taking the band to strip clubs
and subsequently threatened to 'take me out' unless i get her some more
shows
currently she's working the queen show
but doesn't go in for 'all of that faggy stuff'
she's bugging me to do motorhead
she keeps the knife close
it may happen
