What is a blog? March 28 2007

Ruth Minnikin and Reels came to play the Supper Show on Wednesday March 28th. Only Robertson and Fire-Man were representing from the usual crew... the show was packed and everybody went home a winner... what follows is some jibberish written by Robertson after he got home

I guess the reality is that on the way home i remembered how a certain individual, we shall call "FMan", helped put the drum kit away and in doing so knocked the "deodorizer" off the wall smashing fluid over everything. i have yet to recover from that event. It's always hard to hold down a conversation when you smell like a quebec hospital after a "super-bug" scare!

Then there was the usual post show dismantling

"Robertson Failed aggressively as a host somehow getting everybody on stage for the intro and then going into one of the one of the more difficult songs known. This is a fool's error that won't be forgotten. You see i had it in my head that i was going to play 2-3 songs and they were going to be set numbers, thus closing my mind to the grand possibility of what could be possible, which of course was the nature of the show... But after that unfortunate incident with that band "Dog foothill" i was leaning on not being involved. could have just played "Sun rises" or "on frozen pond" as we had a woman with a golden voice and some great players... but no i had to have my head up my ass.

I did help on one song and i took care of a drunk who wanted to play one song on our guests guitar. An interesting conversation.... he was sarcastically asking me that if i thought he missed the "Market trends", to which i told him that it wasn't about that, he insisted, i refuted, he insisted, i refuted... i told him it was about me telling them they could play and letting them play. I should have given him a fine chokingl

and then..

What about the part where i biked back to the club to clean up the fluid after i got home... this is the kind of sanity I'm running on!

The bast entertainment that S Robertson provided was to Ed, andrew, francis and friend outside the club explaining the walk home and the ride back dealing with thurst issues... perhaps another blogaroo sometine

Feb 28 rehash

A good version of "Blue skies" was preformed sung by Deborah of the land of deborah, sim special showed and we did a few numbers including the Roadbed classid "Bent". Great crowd, good show, people danced and then some jackass tried to get on the mic and wouldn't give up... He was on Fire-Man's mic making loud annoying sounds, can you believe that shit? As for tension, it was all there. 21 Tandem Repeats when into a fine groove and Robertson literally stood on his head... that jam got honked out.

A few new songs and a few classics. Super Steve was upset Willingdon Black slipped off after the show as he seemed to have a mind to talk hockey.
