Hello! This is the tierneycreates Beastie guest blog posting (if you are new to this blog, my story is on this post – I’m A Monster!!! and you can see all my posts at this link: Beastie Adventures).

It’s been a while since I’ve done a guest blogger post and I know you all have missed me!
For Thanksgiving I decided to visit my partner John Beastie (see his story at this post Guest Blog Post: Mail Order Groom) who lives in the basement in John’s (Tierney’s husband) desk area (I would have invited him to my home in Tierney’s studio but it is currently being remodeled by Human John, more in a future post):

(Tierney found that strange sign “A fart is a wish your butt makes” at a little shop in Maryland while she was vacationing with her sister earlier this year.)
John Beastie served us a non traditional Thanksgiving meal of spaghetti and meatballs (his trademark dish) on the table John made me a couple years ago (see post Guest Blogger: A Desk for Me!) perched on the new table John made himself (see post John Builds Himself a Desk)
After dinner, John Beastie, who loves bourbon, brought out his bottle of Monsters Mark for an after dinner drink.

I’m not into bourbon like the human Tierney is so instead I asked him if I could show him my new record player – a Teeny-Tiny Turntable!

I then pulled out two bottles of Hop Monster IPA for us (I’m more of a craft beer Beastie than a bourbon Beastie) to enjoy while listening to some of my records.
My turntable came with a couple records that play a snippet of music of different musical genres and a book on 10 historical Chart Topping Record Albums.
John Beastie started reading the Teeny-Tiny Turntable book and I suggested that we play some music instead.
I wanted to listen to “Classic Rock” but John Beastie wanted to listen to “70’s Funk” and once I put the music on something strange started to happen:
I thought at first that John Beastie was having a seizure but then I discovered he was dancing! Well what he described as dancing…
(And yes the music you hear in the video is actually the music that comes out of the Teeny-Tiny Turntable when you put a record on!)









The sound is surprisingly good lol

It is pretty amazing! The first one I bought did not but I exchanged it and got one that works. It is quite the find and the perfect size!

It was just a random find and the first one I bought I had to return as it was not working. I thought it was going to be a dud concept but then it worked! I was giggling during filming the John Beastie dance 😉

Oh my cheeks hurt from smiling so much – and wow – by the time I got to John Beastie bustin’ a groove – LMAO – thanks for that – and also really liked the Monsters Mark. (when I bartended at a few different jobs during college days – I often remembered folks by what they drank – Like I remember the guy who always drank Seagrams V.O. and explained to me that “VO” stood for very own blend – anyhow, I remember someone who loved his Maker’s Mark – um, I mean Monster’s mark – hahah)

I am glad you enjoyed it as I was cracking up laughing while helping her put the post together 😉
I never knew what VO stood for!
Yes Helen who made the Beasties was very creative when I told her human John like to do Bourbon Tasting – she came up Monsters Mark and for me Hop Monster IPA since I like craft beers. 🙂
