In....

Duncan- Ms. C. and I were there this past Friday but did not get a chance for an (in)formal introduction. We were actually sitting down at the very end of the bar near where you were setting up while you were setting up as well as for your first half dozen songs or so.

We had been there since about 6:30, so we tapped out early, but this Thursday we will be in attendance a bit later in the evening and will certainly say "hello hello"

ahh it would have been nice to put a face to a name. I think that I recall a couple being at the end of the bar when I got there. Everyone was giving me shit for not making it down there Thursday, so I was distracted by that.

Are you coming Thursday? It's going to be a ton of fun.

I'm gonna try like crazy to get my work finished by Thursday so I can come out and socialize for the first time this month.

The beer selection sounds splendid, and I really, really need it.


It's a boy Mrs. Walker, it's a boy...

John, some of the band has to leave on the earlier side of things, and I want to keep things going as long as we can. So, have a coffee, take a nap, but be ready to have a good time and play! :)

Well I don't drink coffee, but the nap sounds lovely.

Just got word that a Dogfish Head rep will be on hand to pass out free shwag (glasses, openers, T's etc.) to those who purchase World Wide or Fort.

 

Also Rob Todd owner and founder of Allagash Brewing will be on hand for the tapping of the Allagash Black Cask! This is the first cask of Black ever!

 

And Duncan is actually going to show up this Thursday regardless of the weather ;-)

Yeah so I am repeating what has already been said. I guess we are all just so excited for tonight, well I know that I am.

That was a very nice night at the Dive Bar. A friend brought some co-workers after their company Christmas party, and they were impressed by the atmosphere and the band.

Merry Christmas to all.

I had a great time last night.

The band was off the hook, you guys sounded great!!!

I think my girlfriend is Dr. Gonzo's biggest fan now, that dip is so damn tasty.

Sampled plenty of fine beverages, seemed like a great turnout as well!

Ho Ho Ho!

wow, last night was really unbelievable! What a great time, thanks to the Dive for hosting a great party and inviting us to rock out.


Every Thursday folks, it's always a party of some sorts.

Anything exciting going on for New Year's eve?

Re: Christmas Party Thursday - You're Invited!

Nothing special planned.  It's always too much hype around this one day.  I don't know about you but i always feel like it's a let down if I try to go somewhere. Unless it's to see a band play, or maybe a first night celebration in another city just because it feels different than being in the same environment we're always in.  All of the ads I see for New Years celebrations just seem like someone begging to take our money.   Inflated cover charges, champagne toasts, blah blah blah.  Maybe I'm just a scrooge but I don't like to participate.

We have New Years for misfits I guess.  

 

But I will say this....If you're there at midnight Keith, I'll crack the Magnum of 2005 Mad Elf I have and toast with you.

 

Merry X-mas!

Now I have to drag my lazy ass to work!

I think we'll be there.. not a big fan of crazy new years' events anyway, and none of our friends have parties any more..
