gigSPAM, June 1 NYC: Redux, again


wraub

Recommended Posts

Hello kiddies, once again the Continental shall play host to the ludicrous-speed shenanigans of the rockin' combo with which I make many, many 16th notes.

 

The date- Wed., Jun 1.

The Continental, in lovely, aromatic downtown NYC.

 

We hit at 8:15.

 

 

Peace,

 

wraub

 

I'm a lot more like I am now than I was when I got here.

Yes, sadly, it is.

We do manage to somehow overcome that.

Usually.

 

Hope to see you there...

 

Peace,

I will endeavor to be a part of this June 1st hoopla. I must check my calendar. Much business travel is in the near future.

For my 6000th post on the LDL I am honored to bump this thread to the top of the board.

 

I will attend this gig. I might bring the Fish o' Luv...maybe...if wraub's band is up first he can give it a pre-show whirl.

 

I also wanted to type Custard Wally in my 6000th post. I wanted to type it three times...

Whew! Glad that's out of my system!

 

I look forward to le wrocque from wraub.

 

Peace.

Another bump.

 

We are apparently due to be the second band of the evening. Yay.

 

See y'all there.

 

Dr. Willie thanks for the support, and Congrats on your illustriously numbered post.

Although I am not sure you used it as wisely as possible.

Three times? :)

 

Peace,

Dang!

 

You NYC guys have all the fun.

If I could, I would.

But I can't, so I shan't.

 

Doesn't mean I don't wish I could be there!

Have a great night!

 

If you ever make it down to the Hurricane State, let me know. There's always time to put down the Plywood to hear the ROCK!

wow. wraub always manages to show me that he's the bass player we all want to be: smooth, solid, and manages to play impressive licks without being flashy. once again, well done man.

 

as for the band, it sounds like motorheads stand-up act.

Eeeeeehhhhhhhhh.

Killer set. This band is truly fun to see.

 

The drummer is a machine and his girlfriend was entertainingly extroverted. The singer/guitarist got his sneer on while delivering some seriously amusing lyrics. wraub laid it down. That Ibanez sounded hot. And the band got a good mix -- fo' real, yo.

 

Great to hang w/ Ace, getz, and wraub.

 

The band that followed had too much gear and listened to too much Soundgarden while writing their material. They were also way too loud, driving us out into the street to talk. Funny thing was, none of them were playing black instruments.

 

Peace.

I dunno, as much as I want to believe blacker is louder, my silver aguilar is pretty loud..and I bet getz' tangerine jazz is a pretty ear ripping mofo with plenty of boot lickin mojo...but then again...

Nice hang indeed. William and his friend (Evan?), Erik and his better half, my drummer Todd and crazy band-chick Debbie. Now that's a party.

 

Wraub, well played. I describe the music (once again) as Black Flag featuring Adam Sandler on a handful of pills. That's a compliment, by the way. ;) I really did enjoy the set.

Taken as a compliment, Maury. Actually a description I can live with.

Thanks to all for coming out, and having some fun.

 

I played as well as I could considering the food poisoning. My right hand was so cramped up that I had to use a pick on some songs I normally don't, which was interesting.

 

Yes, my drummer is a machine. :) It's hard not to play well with him around.

 

Ben, sorry we missed you.

 

My serious thanks to all of the above for their kind words. E-Too kind, as always. :)

I will endeavor to live up all of your praise.

 

Peace,

Sorry I couldn't join you.

 

Given the thread you started on the "Band" forum, I was curious as to your choice of attire.

 

Will any of the attendees be posting photos? And what about the FoL - did it make an appearance?

Tom, Jason- Sorry as well that we missed you there, although, Jason, it was 21+. Next time, I'll try to skate you in with the band. :)

 

Tom, I did in fact wear something more "appropriate" this time.

At least I was dressed.

 

Probably for the best there were no pics, as I was not at my freshest, but I did miss the FOL.

 

Will, we still have to meet up on that tip.

:)

 

Peace,
