I'll be there!

Well, I will be busy being 3000 miles away . . .

Any chance of MP3's or perhaps some live video?

So, what would be on your typical playlist?

I tried "click here for a live MP3," but that made my copy of Inept Exploder die like a weasel in a steam-cooker.

Music by cool publisher type, or Kurosawa movie...

Hmm...

tough call...

Sorry Patrick.

The Bad Sleep Well is gonna win everytime - especially when I'm being graded on whether I show up.

Play on a weekend and I'll try to show up.

Having followed the quite obvious link indicated by Scott (while wiping egg off his face, he said, "On me, this looks good") I got the MP3 to load.

Nice and tight, but I had a little trouble with the vocals. Considering the fact that only my left ear works these days, that is likely to be my problem, not yours. Sorry not to be there.

I'm a bit bemused by the idea that anyone is required to post an excuse for not showing up. I assure you, the C-Note isn't big enough for all of Electrolite's readership.

What would be on our typical playlist would be a bunch of songs by our frontman Jon Sobel, The Hardest Working Guy In Show Business. Jon calls it "American Music." That'll do. It sounds like rock and roll to me, sometimes with a country or blues tinge, sometimes less so. We also cover a thing or two.

I'd like to get more mp3s online. The one pointed to from the Whisperado homepage doesn't seem to me all that representative. But we're a band composed entirely of people with full-time jobs, which means a lot of little it-would-be-nice stuff doesn't get done in a hurry.

Have a terrific performance. I knew you'd been working on vocals, but I hadn't realized you were singing! Trey schick.

-l.

But how much of Electrolites readership is in NY? And would the C-Note hold that?

Just listened to the MP3. Nifty stuff. Kurosawa still wins.

I'm not coming unless you promise to play something by Fred Eaglesmith.

MKK

Fscking teleport stage is still broken. Oh, well...

Mary Kay, you're confusing Whisperado with the We Rehearsed It In Email World Fantasy Con Players.

Although "Mighty Big Car" would indeed make a pretty good Whisperado song. Hmm.

Hmmm indeed. Would you believe I could buy a round trip ticket to NYC for Thursday dep and Sunday return for only $337? But that would be, um, foolish wouldn't it? Wouldn't it?

Husband requests information about cover charge and plastic friendliness?

Julia: It's just a bar. One-drink minimum per set. I don't recall seeing them take plastic but I could be wrong.

Well, *I* liked the Bonzos reference.

Wonderful to see Brainiac on banjo.

Patrick,

Hmm. What about posting a QuickTime snippet for us (way) out-of-towners at some point? Teresa can do the camera work....

:)

Since you seemed to want this:

Yes, Mary Kay, it would be wrong.

I know you announce these things on short notice to ensure I don't just show up. Curse you, Patrick!

Well, I gotta admit, I respect the hell outta anybody who quotes the Bonzos. I did an apazine for a few years named Brainiac On Banjo.

I hope you had a great gig....

So then, how'd it go? Y'all gonna add Mighty Big Car?

MKK

Yes, how'd it go?

Was George W. Bush playing vibes?

I read world and tech news, and then I read the op-ed page here. Witty and acerbic commentary not optional; must have.

Need more op, more ed. Can't afford to commute to your gigs. Saw Cav and Pag on the 20th instead; shorter trip.

Glad to see you have a life, though. So, how did the show go?

Woohoo!
I live exactly three blocks from the venue, so I made it to the show. It was good fun. Patrick was rockin' on the guitar and wailing on vocals. I liked the mix of music they played and there was a good crowd in the bar. It was nice to see Teresa again and I met some nice people.

I complimented Patrick on the perfomance, he immediately shrugged my measly words with a +10 vorpal shield of modesty. "I played worse than I have in years!"

If he made any mistakes, I didn't notice. It was fun.
