Had a great time jamming at Joey's on Taylor for Savage Bash...right up until 5-0 knocked on the door to tell us we were violating various unspecified noise statutes. With only one song left in the final set, we thought about sneaking it in anyway but apparently noise statutes are more strictly enforced after 1 am and we decided not to tempt fate by rattling the windows with Ace of Spades. Even so, it was a great gig at a great place, and our thanks go to Sarah Savage for inviting us to rock her birthday party, and to a new band in town, Casual Head, for warming-up the crowd. Next year we'll bring a couple dozen doughnuts in case we start smelling bacon after midnight.
Next up is one of our occasional "13 on the 13th" gigs, 9pm Saturday night April 13th at Motor Alley, a way cool rockabilly bar at 1402 52nd St. in Kenosha. Also rockin' the house will be Old Junk, with the amazing Steve Crucianelli on bass & vocals. Old Junk is one helluva "slap 'n wiggle"-type rockabilly band, which is one of the earliest forms of rock & roll. They're guaranteed to get the crowd shakin' with their own interpretation of hits from the likes of Elvis, Johnny Burnette and Gene Vincent.
We first gigged Motor Alley last December with the fabulous Jamie Buencamino and 38DD. The place must have rubbed-off on us as, soon after, we came up with our new rockabilly-type song called Wild One. So get in the spirit! Grow your rockabilly sideburns (ladies excluded), knock-out a few teeth, bring your cousins and howl at the moon with HWY 13 and Old Junk down at Motor Alley on the 13th.
Thanks again for tuning in to the blog and keep rockin!
