Kevin at 8-4-2008 jam

A monday night jam due to my meeting so thanks to everyone as usual for this monthly endulgence.  Who is in.  I just heard it’s Jason on lead tonight so it promises to be freaky. 

I’ve spent the weekend watching a filming Kathy and Scraps competing in agility trials all weekend long and I’m tired, but not too tired to jam and not too tired to create a new blog you should all check out.  It the Scraps & Rags K9 Blog and you can find it at http://scrapsrags.wordpress.com.  I have the YouTube upload of all 10 events he ran with Kathy.  It only takes about 10 minutes and is pretty impressive if you ask me.

It’s a beautiful Monday night in August and being Monday it was an easy ride in and out of the city.  In addition, parking was a leasure and rolling my new rack mount unit pays its dividend on 55th street. When you came into Carroll’s to see Deadstein listed on the monitor you saw our name right next to David Byrne’s name who was rehearsing in an adjacent studio.  We never saw him though.  

On my way in I called up Scott and asked him to pickup some Chinese food for me.  He was in the restaurant at that moment and spoke my order directly to the lady.  What timing. I got a chicken in garlic sauce.  There was too much sauce and it leaked all over the place.  It was quite the mess.

Now a few audio samples to listen to from this week’s jam:

 Now time for this weeks poll.

We all got there nice and early, relatively speaking.  As staed above, Jason was on lead and Scott, Rich, Kevin and I provided the foundation.  Rich’s friend Scott was there and we played lived from Hell’s Kitchen to Carol over the cellular network.  In addition, Rich’s old time friend Maurice and is lovely wife also joined in with us for several songs.  We played a lot and ended with the odd Minglewood.
