i wasn't a fan at first but the intelligent banter has drawn me in like a stinkbug into a vacuum nozzle.

Krys O.:

The last gig I attended was in March. It was a memorial for my friend, Ralph Carney, at Roulette. The music was phenomenal, but it was so bittersweet without the man.

I've heard that Dean Martin did not drink on stage. He had apple juice in his glass, supposedly.

@Krys O. - Have you heard anything about Foster Brooks? Was he drunk or just pretending?

foster brooks was totally sober when he did his bit. frank fontaine as crazy guggenheim too
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:18pm
Krys O.:

@Ken: Brooks was sober! "When he was a younger man, she said, he was a weekend drinker. But in the early 1960s, she said, "he just one day cold-turkey stopped drinking and smoking. He always said if he hadn't done that, he wouldn't have made it" in show business.

As Brooks told The Times in 1972, "I never drew a sober breath from Friday night to Monday. Eight years ago, I quit. Fellow made me a $10 bet I couldn't quit, and I haven't had a drink since. At the time I needed the $10."

Elmendorf said recovering alcoholics often approached her father and told him that his drunk portrayal "gave them the laughter they needed to get through their recovery." And, she said, "he actually became national spokesperson for Mothers Against Drunk Driving and did public service announcements in many states.""

I once did a wild weird gig with just me and Ralph and David Thomas. Circa 1998.

I believe music should be part of everyday culture (as it was before the 18th c), so food and drink should be encouraged. Just be respectful, and don't talk to loud.

I'm getting hungry.

Tommy in Neversink:

I think if you have a lot of rules about what the audience can or can't do nobody will want to come
Avatar 6:32pm

I had a band member make smoothies for the audience while the blender was contact miced.....

i was talking to a guy at bear mountain who was walking the trail - i asked about meetup sex and he said there was a name for people hooking up on the trail (i forgot the term) but he said it smelled pretty bad because of the lack of showers.

Krys O.:

I LOVE Joan La Barbara!

Tommy in Neversink:

I play piano and I want people to be eating and talking when I'm playing . It's about them having a good time. I could care less if they hear every note I play. To me, the sound of the people is part of it. I'm playing off of it

P-90:

The "boil your guitar strings" thing started when Floyd Rose tremolo tailpieces began to get popular, thanks primarily to Eddie Van Halen, who is rumored to be quite a decent cook himself. Boiling the strings was supposed to help them stay in tune without a long breaking-in period.
