Tuesday night update (June 24 2008)

Well i just got an email... and it was MINE the one that talked about the show tomorrow... you know the "Entertainment and Supper Option". We are looking to move toward cell phone user group alerts for the hottest new concerts... but that will be next year.

Ye old Robertson special... send out the email with a link to the site and then quickly shit together a blogaroo. This old blog that hasn't heard from any of the other delinquent posters that have the passwords and all.

Ah yes i can feel the server being flooded as we continue.


OK, Last week Vale put on a fine clinic... at 7:30 i was ready to start the show... just couldn't find the stage lights... and then the sound man JL Delinquent flew in the door and threw mic's on the lads... good thing i didn't start the show without a vocal mic. The drums and Amp could have worked in the room without mic's, but it was far superior to have them. JLD is a fine sound man with a master ear and a quick paw... a veritable lynx among mortals.

Vale



And the lovely Genny Trigo sang for 21TR with the pro bass work of Cory Curtis




The end



I know you are all thinking.... how can i get on the email list?

dare to dream

June 11 re-cap

Jake DeNiro and Moustache Man took up the call of the Supper Show and knocked one out of the park last week. In terms of true art and culture, their show captured and presented an element of the Super Robertson Supper Show using a minimalist electronic remix and award winning photography.

It was what I would call KING HELL.



So 21 Tandem Repeats had to play Bengal Tiger



all for free baby

Later i headed down to Fake Jazz to catch Baboon Torture Division... i even ended up mosh dancing. I did cost me 3 bucks though, but well worth it.

June 4 re-cap

Before i start i should note that our guest next week (June 11)... i guess which is actually this week has a press release:

"Come and listen to remixes of your favorite 21 Tandem Repeats tracks all jumbled up by Jake DeNiro and his suite of looping software, MIDI controllers and an amazing light table. Visuals provided by MoustacheMan. Yesssss."

What happened on June 4... besides the Detroit Red Wings winning the Stanley Cup. i missed that as i was watching a lovely an intimate performance of a songbird named Clare Love. She opted out of being filmed so i can say if you weren't there then you missed a fantastic free show.

imagine this on stage



21 Tandem Repeats had their ace drummer Chris Banting back... i thought we played great

Hey Rock took the Bait

Well Super Steve was overjoyed to finally meet Hey Rock in person, and hear what a fine singer he is.

Didn't even get to hang with Hey Rock much... didn't even attempt a swirley. A Swirley is when you shove somebodys head in a tiolet and flush. Shockk and i use to play that game with Hey Rock for years. We came pretty close one day... i would say his head was about 2 inches from the water when he summoned a "hail mary" energy surge and broke loose back away from the tiolet and through the shower doors.


Ahh the good old days when boys would be boys and men would be men, and it can get harder to describe when you don't really have it... like another broken soul who never made it to the end of the Road. Bed time in the city of fallen heroes!

OK what is that from?

First right answer gets a Canada Lynx prize pack.

So Hey Rock and his band Ross Vegas came out and stomped down a set. He had a Killer guitar player named Alec Macaulay, or something like that i think... The bass was operated by Smash and for a moment it looked like we could be in for a STOKE medley... oddly enough we did touch on an In 3's medley to close the supper show.

Smash and I got to hang out for a bit later on in the night and i almost got the feeling we might have a winner for the "best comment from the supper show 2008-2009" Gold Medal... but there are still a lot of Supper Shows left so let's not get too hasty. I always tend to view life from a different perspective that sees more opportunity after talking to Smash, so cheers to that.

well lets cut the chat and get to the STREAMING DIGITAL VIDEO!!!!!



Now Smash left his bass affects up on stage so Alvaro was like a kid in a candy store.
