"The rain makes you want to pee"
-Brett, 8/17/2012
Although we lost the scenery of Richie's Rocks on account of weather, the garage proved to be a fine backdrop for the Ramble, part deux. As advertised, Dancing Dick carried the band through old favorites and a few impressive debuts. By the time "The Fresh Prince of Bel Air" dropped, we all forgot about the storms. Brett was really killing it on Keys, as you can see from this pic:

This show was the 2nd Annual "Dancing Dick's Midnite Ramble". It featured the debuts of "Bessie Smith" (Bob Dylan), "The Moma Dance" (Phish) and "Ain't Nobody" (Chaka Khan). Setbreak featured Little John with Meat Castle performing "The Fresh Prince of Bel Air" (Will Smith).
Meat Castle and Jack Caldwell opened. The band joined Jack Caldwell and Rich A for a performance of "Helpless" (Neil Young). No bass fires were reported at this show.
Thumbs Up, Guy Malone!
PS the band should close with "Cold Roses" every show.
ReplyDeleteBrett loves him some Ryan Adams. Glad the boys were able to make some noise despite the shyte weather. Thanks for bringing the experience into our homes, cp.
