lkp upcoming dates
The final weekend of the season in Maine was a great one. We had such a great time with the staff, and saw so many repeat offenders this past weekend that it made it a great way to end the season up there. We’ll be back next summer, probably just on Saturdays, Fridays always seemed a bit slow due to people still traveling, so we’ll make more fun of the single night setup next time around. That being said, Friday was a blast, Saturday was a little bizarre. Maybe it was the moon, or something in the water, but there were a bunch of people who decided that the stage was where they needed to be, and a microphone was what they needed in their hand. To the bachelorette party, when someone asks you to take your pictures, but leave the stuff alone, replying with “someone said it was ok” is not the correct answer. I hope you had fun, but hands off the merchandise! Also, to the blond woman, when you start trying to turn the microphone on to use it, you should probably have a little class in signal flow. I have several places down the line that I can mute you, so trying to gain access to a mic to sing, just because you want to, is probably not a good way to make you my friend. More on this in the awards…
This coming weekend is a busy one. We’ll be up at the Rendezvous in Newport, VT on Friday. This date is taking over for the East Side street fest that has been cancelled. The folks at the Rendezvous were kind enough to take the date and make sure that we got a night to play up in the North country! Saturday is our return to the Red Blazer in Concord, and we’ll be having a blast there. Sunday is a benefit motorcycle ride in memory of Justin Rollins. Please check our website for all the info on the ride. If you just want to come see us play, we’ll start shortly after 2, and play until about 5. 8 dollars is the donation if you’re not planning on riding. This sounds like there may be well over 3-400 bikes, so if you like to ride, it starts at Newport high school, registration starts at 8, ride starts at 10. The band will be playing at the Newport VFW, on the hill heading west toward Claremont, on the left. Brother Keith Ricci will be joining us, as Eric has box seats for the sox, and has had those for months, so we can’t deny him some sweet seats. Keith will fill in on the bass, and then we’ll all roll down the hill to the common, as his band along with our drummer Kyle will play the concerts on the common from 6 until? A great day of music in Newport. Pray for good weather, and let’s raise some money for the Justin Rollins scholarship fund!
Next weekend, we’ll be off Saturday the 25th, but we’ll be rocking the Rusty Nail on Friday the 24th! It should be a great night at the nail, and we’ll see you all there?
This week’s awards go to:
The cookie man award goes to our new friend and Yankees fan who showed up with a batch of some fine choco chip discs of wonderment. I hope you’re feeling ok, since you had to leave early on Saturday. Thanks for the cookies, and we’ll accept more any time!
The Dale senior award goes to the “intimidator” on Saturday night. If you are trying to scare us, or guilt us out for not letting your wife sing through MY microphone, the best way to do it is not to stand in front of each member of the band and attempt to have a staring contest - especially when we are singing Banditos. Those not familiar, the chorus is “everybody knows that the world is full of stupid people”. This guy stood right in front of us, “intimidating” and didn’t seem to realize that the rest of the room was laughing AT him. Well done, Mike, I think your name was, come back any time and be the butt of our jokes!
The famous person sighting award goes to Natalie Portman and George Foreman. Pretty good stand ins if I do say so.
And the narcolepsy award goes to everyone who needed a nap on Saturday afternoon.
