Though Dennis says it's not true, I declare myself a stinker for missing the Dennis Crommett band's Iron Horse show last night. I bet it was awesome.
And Spottiswood! Man, it's been a shock hearing his new stuff on the River. It's fun and full of horns and has kind of an 80's feel to it. Could this be the same guy that SFTD played with in Portland, ME at the 2004 Coaxial Fest?
Yup, there's his picture (along with a ton of bad pictures of me--what was up with that, Ning?), but not one of us mentions him in our diaries. Jose had talked him up, but solo, it was more a shy, Nick Drake thing going on that went against the happy vibe of that night. I remember him wearily telling a story of getting on the wrong train and ending up in Boston.
So, I would have loved to see this great, big band with crazy instruments and happy songs.
Oh well.
I'll get my rocks off seeing Spouse on Saturday. (did he just say "I'll get my rocks off"?).
I'm about to pick up my car where I left it to get inspected. Think it passed?
