Me at White Castle. I ordered 50, ate 36 (sick for 3 days) for Epic Records promotion gimmick for release of "Don’t Fight the Feeling" in 1976. Thanks to Jeannie Mizerka Mikota for finding this image.
Me and my fab friend Diana Dietrich of Warner Chappell publishing. We enjoyed an awesome business and pleasure breakfast at Prasino in LaGrange.
A memory to everyone who misses the awesome 6 o’clock mass at Holy Name Cathedral with Father Dan, Dick Biondi and the Ides of March. Thanks to Emil Shiavo for the wonderful shot. Share Christmas always! Love. Jim

The last two days have gone by in a blur. That’s what happens when I’m writing and recording with the great Anthony Gomes. We’d been planning this musical reunion for a few months finally getting back together to recreate some of the magic we made when we wrote songs for his album debut “Blues in Technicolor”. On Nov 20 we worked down in my lower level studio called Lennon’s Den (for all the images of one of my musical heroes hanging all over the walls) and caught lightning in a bottle once again, penning two songs in about a five hour time span. We recorded these songs -- "Cold Stop" and "Love Me Right" the next day, tracking them at Colin Peterik’s The Jam Lab studio with Colin engineering and with Anthony and I tracking live on twin Les Paul’s, Colin Peterik on drums and Kevin Campbell on bass. Then we went back to my World Stage studio to work with Larry Millas for Anthony’s lead vocals and blazing lead guitar work. I’m really looking forward to Anthony joining me once again at my World Stage concert on January 25 at the Wentz concert hall where you just may hear the premier of one or both of these songs.
'Tis the season to give presents... Well, actually, you can give this one from now until NEXT Christmas because it's good for TWO years! Want to be someone's best friend? Buy a bagful of these fabulous calendars and spread the love and cheer around!
The best gift I got for my 69th birthday on November 11th was a homemade poster board by my dear son Colin Peterik. Apparently he posted the Ides "Swagger" video on his website and collected some of the awesome responses. I was pretty overwhelmed by the heartwarming responses and the initiative Colin took to make this day the best yet. This will soon hang in the hall of fame in my recording studio. Jimbo

From Vesecky’s bakery in Berwyn to the Genesee theater in Waukegan, Chris May surprised us with this awesome cake to signify the Ides of March 55 years of brotherhood. Oct 16, 1964 was our very first “show” where we played in the basement of the American Legion Hall in Berwyn receiving $20 total for the whole band. Hell we make nearly twice that now. Thanks Chris for filling our calorie quota for the next 3 months! Much love. Jimbo
