November 15 re-cap

Well.. Not quite sure who reads this blog, but, if anybody does I'm sure our crew of writers are not to be accused of what WB once termed "smiley -faced PR". That said I would say that Fox Northman who opened the show was one of the best singer songwriter's that I have ever seen... It was a watch in awe moment.

Fox Northman is from a place called... Is it Hay town?... North of Calgary... And he came to Vancouver to get away from distractions and write. A Beardman who has been at the supper show for the past few months sitting quietly at the back. Being a beardman and a supper show regular he almost got called for bass duty one night and then a few weeks ago got assigned to do a set. He delivered. If you missed it then give yourself a punch in the nose now.

Ace bass player Alvaro Rojas was to miss the show because he was set to record with Microscopic... But fate had other ideas. A Storm blew in and power was knocked out so he came. So it was Shockk on drums with the regular 21TR lineup. The crew played a pretty good set although Robertson was a bit distracted by the 2 girls that decided to go top-less. Then there was the version of Hey Rocks's livingroom that had 2 bass solos and I drum solo.. The crowd was overjoyed.

After the show ace guitarist Willingdon Black began a mental chess game with S. Robertson over the upcoming 21 tandem repeats studio session mentioning that certain songs may need more thorough discussion before recording. Robertson recalled a scene from the end of Julius Ceasar's life where he played Brutus... But that's irrelevant ain't it.
