Title: Guess who's playing again....for 7 minutes...
Post by: gweimer on February 12, 2015, 11:49:42 AM

Well, I'm not sure how, but I'm going to be doing a show with my old band in Cincinnati on Apr 4.  The annual '80s Pop Rocks show will see the debut and exit of The Bad Shatners doing a vibrant 7 minutes of song.  This should be fun.  I need to get my bass out again.  This one will be with the Embassy, too.   8)

7 minutes, that´s well into the intro part of a good prog rock song!

I just got back in from playing.  Hopefully, there will be a picture or maybe even a video somewhere.  It was a great 6 1/2 minutes.  Only a couple of clams.  We did a medley of "Freedom of Choice" by DEVO, and "Sunday, Bloody Sunday" by U2.  I'm not sure it was worth 3 trips to Cincinnati, and a 12 hour day, but the playing was fun.

Did you wear an Devo energy dome for Freedom Of Choice?

It seemed like a lot of driving involved.  But that's life.  It looks like it was fun anyway.  At least for me, getting to something that's fun very often involves a lot of driving and/or flying.
