Release party? They're releasing chickens?
-
Big Chicken beer from Henhouse Brewing. It's a small brewery that employs our drummer.

This sounds very much like an event that I would have posted about playing at, from nearby Franklin County. ;D
True story; a high school prank many, many years ago... Homecoming game night, a bunch of chickens in coicidentally the school colors of our rival county high school, (red and black) were released in building hallways during the game. Like most pranks, they really didn't think this one through... like eventually someone might count their chickens and come up a dozen short. Justice was swift and harsh. It was funny while it lasted.
Y'all have a good show Bill TGO. ;D
-
Sounds fun, hope it goes well! 😊
-
Y'all are invited to my 70th birthday celebration (how the f**k did that happen!)
Bill, tgo

Y'all break a string, Bill TGO. (euphemistically speaking...)
Many Happy Returns.🎂

Happy Birthday Bill. I'm glad it happened.
Is the birthday gig being streamed or recorded, i'd love to catch it.👍🏾

Are there lots of bands covering the Grateful Dead Tribute bands in the states generally or. are most centered around California?
I have only seen one over here which our member Jacko from Scotland used to be a part of.
-
Well... Seattle is on the Left Coast along with California, is that "centered around" California?
@moonliner occasionally performs with Golden Road (yes, playing that awesome Alemicized Starfire), I've seen them at Nectar Lounge a few times.
There are other bands/artists around the Puget Sound area that are at least Grateful Dead cover bands (not really "tribute"). And I have to admit that even though I'm not playing in overtly Grateful Dead bands, I take some inspiration from Phil in a lot of what I play.
-
Jazzy... there are literally hundreds of Dead cover/tribute bands all across the US. I doubt that this list is complete but you can get an idea..

Always appreciate the enthusiasm of Minor League sports. Plus a live band!
Thanks for the offer Bill, commute is a bit too long for me.
-
Getting ready for tonight. Still a few tickets left if any of our local brethren want to go!

The gig was a blast! We had a large and enthusiastic crowd. We played for about an hour before the game, then played during the game. The Ballers, the home team, scored 12 runs in the first four innings, so more people left the game and hung out in the plaza where we played, so we had a nice crowd all night. We wound up playing for four hours with two 15 minute breaks.

Hey Bill… sounds like a boring game but a good time and a good opportunity to play for a different crowd and get some nice publicity, congratulations!

This Friday we’ll be playing in the domestic terminal at San Francisco Airport, 10-2. We will be the fourth Grateful Dead band to play there, each Friday in August. (I suspect after hearing the first three bands) we’ve been asked to keep the volume down and let their sound-man control volume with FOH. Should be interesting!
