Grateful Dead Music Forum

Saturday November 23rd:
my band Shakedown is sharing a bill with Fennario in Worcester (details below).....Since members of both bands are fairly active on this board, it would be great to see any other rukinders in that area show up and shoot the shit....Rusty the scoob and myoung are both in fennario and both great contributors to this board.....I am very much looking forward to hooking up with them this weekend...should be a lot of fun......

and if for some reason you cant make it to that....you can go to the same room 1 week later and and see Vic's fantastic band, Playin Dead! (unless you are in CT in which case we hope to see you that weekend at Toads place in New Haven) Worcester heads have it real good when they have a room putting on this kind of music on 3 consecutive weekends............

If any Rukinders do show, please come up and say hi to me (I am the overweight rhythm guitarist in Shakedown)

Yo Jeff Dude
You guys gonna do any cross pollination ?
That could be cool - RUKIND ALL STARS !
have fun .....

Hi Jeff,

DANG IT! I'd love to stop by to see you guys, but I've got a gig that night. It's my steenking B'day too, it would've been fun and given me a chance to relax in a big way.

TEAR IT UP!

Till next time,
Fred

I like the idea of Shakedown and Fennario playing together! That is great, I will be in Maine for a week sometime this spring, maybe I can get down to MA for one of these bands shows (PD) included.

Where in Maine, man? Fennario's official drummer is from there and still has friends... including a great band called Heavy Dime. Could make it an RUKind North-Northeast party.

Back on the original topic.. I'm in! You won't miss me.

No better place than Wooda for the all star jam.

It was cool meeting you guys, Jeff! My memory of the night gets pretty foggy after a few birthday shots with my drummer, but you guys sounded great!

How was the gig ?
Meet any RUKIND groupies ?

Good gig Jeff - good to finally meet you as well! It was tons of fun - we'll have to do it again sometime!

Peace

Mike

Dan and Mike,
wonderful to meet you guys as well,
I had a lot of fun listening to you guys, your lazy Lightnin>supplication was right on the frickin' money! Loved the little structured jam element you threw in right before the supplication vocals started......... VERY well done.
Our set was a bit ragged, but we had a fun.....I had no vocal monitor which can happen sometimes when doing a quick changeover like we did........but you just gotta roll with the punches....(and in this game you pretty much have to be used to that kind of stuff)....

jedi.....no other rukinders there that I could see......But I had a great time, hanging and talking with Mike (myoung) and Dan (rusty)

Oh, man, I'm sorry you had monitor troubles! Curtis the soundman is a great guy (excellent drummer, too!) and would have hooked you up between songs, no problem.

found this on the .ORG .... from the 01/23 gig ...
Jeff dude getting down ....

i was there. they both sounded good. first time seeing scarlet so that was cool. i would've said hello but didn't know who was in scarlet. plus after some of this and this i sound like a fumbling fool anyway. good times.
