Nothin'. I got nothin' Peaches. But folks move a little slower here in the Southland and we are farther (not further to New York or by bicycle). So I will just have to wait patiently for another day or two or three....

FYI.............There's a nice article on Vini "Mad Dog" Lopez in this months New Jersey Monthly. Often he's referred to as the " Pete Best " of the Jersey Shore. Both he and Steel Mill be playing at the Wave Gathering Festival in Asbury Park on June 20th.

Couple o'things...The Ranney School benefit is tonight at The Pony, so one would guess that Bobby and his band will be backing Mr. & Ms. S. Beautiful day for stalking. LOL
There was what could be best described as a "sparse" crowd at The Pony Friday last for Lisa Lowell. Among the covers she sang were: "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood", "I Touch Myself"(!), and "Satisfaction". Mike Mancini from LaBamba's Big Band was on keyboards, Jeremy Chatzky on bass, Larry Eagle on drums (both from Seeger Sessions band), and Marc Bosch (Ian Hunter's band) on guitar. Lisa was a little under the weather, but sang beautifully. She talked about organ donation, due to her boyfriend's passing while waiting for a kidney transplant. Neither Soozie nor Patti were there, but Nicole Atkins was.

Hey, CC. I think the guitar at the Morristown show was Bobby, but Ralph definitely rocks, too.

My apologies to Andrew......not only have I not checked the mb in awhile.....I also didn't scroll down far enough.....
Can't wait for the Hampton Beach show....but I'm also craving a more intimate Jukes gig up here on the coast of Maine.....I know the price of gas is closing in on 4 bucks a gallon but I'd be willing to fill up that Ford 15 passenger van before making it's way out of Maine......

Benny I believe Andrew from Rockville MD had the answer first. He must have gotten up pretty early in the morning to spot the jive and jump on Google so fast.
Personally, I am not as bad as a certain supermodel who wouldn't get out of bed for less than $10,000, but I certainly wouldn't shorten my beauty sleep for the $10 prize. (Assuming Mr. Southside actually ponies it up.)
And SnafuJohn thank you for the excellent QOW - don't want it to go unmentioned in all the Jive talking.
Now that it is neary 5:00 I really should say good bye and get some work done today. Good Bye!

Ahhh....haven't checked in awhile....looks like sewtsockpimp gets the $10.....what daya get for second place???.....
"A man I know has grappled his entire life with self-hatred. And like salt in the wound, he has absorbed a notion which has only served to exacerbate all the suffering. Once, he told me, "I don't feel like I'm allowed to express any pain over how bad I hurt inside, because I'm a sinner and so anything I'm suffering is my fault anyway. That makes me angry, but then I think 'I can't be mad at God because being mad at Him suggests that He did something wrong, and since He's never wrong, it's wrong for me to be angry at Him.'"
"Many of us, like my friend, are walking bottles of pain and frustration sometimes, terrified that if any of it gets seen by God, He will nail us."
"Job, as we all know, suffered horribly. Loss of property, family, health and all comfort are his lot in life. But what we may not know is that Job is a guy who doesn't pull his punches in venting the full force of his anguish at God. This may be one reason we don't hear him quoted all that much. Mostly we get the occasional aphorism ("Man was born to suffer as the sparks fly upward.") or pious remark ("The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.") and then we buzz past 40-odd chapters so we can plop down at the "He lived happily every after" ending. "
"Why do we breeze past all the punchy stuff? Because Job is shocking. He tells God to leave him alone (Job 7:16). He demands to know why God spends so much time staring at him and pestering him ("How long wilt thou not look away from me, nor let me alone till I swallow my spittle?" (Job 7:19)). He straightforwardly tells God he is innocent and complains that he must appeal to his accuser (Job 9:15). He flatly declares that God hurts him without cause (Job 9:17).".....Mark P. Shea

I am good with all but the high heels - I would be at risk of getting clocked by those chandeliers at the Birchmere. As to actually performing... I said girl group not band....maybe I should have said gang - you know with secret hazing rituals, hand signals cool jackets and such. Besides don't you people watch American Idol? It's all about looking good (and remembering the lyrics!) Peachy if we go with the long gloves we need big cocktail rings to wear over them. Bring on the bling!

Miss October,
I'm sorry to have to break this to you, but being in a band, other than having groupies and free Jack Daniels, does come with some of that other pesky stuff...like having to sing or play an instrument...unless Tasha has something else in mind?
|

Girl band? OK. I don't have to sing or play an instrument or anything, do I?
I'll be at the Birchmere show instead of my 20th college reunion. I was thinking about it, and since I spent most of my college years driving up and down the East Coast following bands from New Jersey, I thought reunion weekend shouldn't be any different. Maybe we can work out a set list then, or at least get our costumes straight (first things first).

sorry for the typo, wish I could have omitted that!
Tash, I'll be in your girly band, but we must dress like The Supremes, very fancy-schmancy, and have all the right dance steps and arm movements, not to mention the elbow length gloves... otherwise, I mean, why bother?
The original Jukes jacket was Royal Blue, I believe, at least the one I had, which I won in a contest (HINT, HINT!!) from Dave Herman on WNEW....

Snafu, very interesting query to Mr. Southside!
And, the answer by The Lead Singer was quite comprehensive - but for one glaring ommission!!!
Ben Franklin not only blew some fine harp...but he, as of course he would have to, invented one of his own:
"Inspired by musical wine glasses he heard played in Europe, Ben Franklin invented a mechanical glass harmonica in 1761."

By the way I saw BB King perform this weekend in Richmond. I had seen him here last year as part of the Richmond Forum Lecture series where he did a full show and then took questions from the audience and the moderator for nearly an hour afterwards. It was a magical experience – once in a lifetime. I should have quit while I was ahead. Last weekends show was the standard show – canned and choreographed. But hey the man is 82 years old and still on the road so kudos to him.

Good morning,
To Andrew from Rockville, you are certainly in the right neighborhood. I don't know what the rules are for this contest, but I'd assume that identifying a quote involves identifying the speaker of said quote. No? Maybe not, I dunno.
What I do know is that we still neeed pictures from the Norway shows. I've got a couple of Joe Belia singing "Cadillac Jack", but there were a lot of people with cameras there. Please send them in.
Thanks,
Carol

Re the jive - I don't need to lighten up - have I said anything? Complained? Made any mention of my daily singing of "Wait a Minute Mr. Postman" (well actually postlady in my neighborhood.) No. Because I am having way too much fun being one of the VERY FEW people who can say Southside Johnny doesn't give ME any crap!"
