9/12 Derby Birthday Whaley Sammy Madness
« on: September 12, 2008, 10:25:55 am »
For those not doing the I91 north thing tonite, and still want to get a bit crazy, John Whaley and his merry pranksters will be celebrating his \'birthday\' in and around CT\'s rock & roll capital of Derby.  The band Hubinger St will be playing at Connie\'s (Elizabeth St), starting a little before 10, and their good friend Sammy Blanchette will be hosting a \'pre-game\' acoustic session at everyone\'s favorite basement lounge, The Twisted Vine (Main St), starting at 8.  Baked goods for all at Connie\'s, and an awesome dinner menu at The Vine.
  The Valley strikes again!!!

If you\'ve never gotten to see Hubinger St and you\'re not traveling to see the breakfast, you should make an effort to get to Connie\'s (and twisted vine pregame).  

Huby is fantastic, tons of fun, incredible jams and very friendly fans.  Most of you know Mr. Waley because he comes to tons of breakfast shows/ side projects.  But if you\'ve never seen him drop bass bombs,  you\'re in for a treat.

John Whaley, Hubi bass player in a previous life, may bribe the band to let him slide in and play a couple classics.  But someone has to be in charge of the bakery, so he\'ll be a busy prankster!

John = one of the best kids on the planet. This is his birthday thread. This is his band.
Your post = totally unnecessary.

Whatever... This is a forum... A place to speak your thoughts... I\'m sure John is a great guy... I just think Hubinger sucks, always did... It\'s nothing personal against the guy, just the music...

Happy Birthday John

Ah man, I forgot that he\'s not playing bass for them anymore.  It\'ll be great anyway.

They really are a great band.  Awesome song writing.  If there\'s a Broseph in heaven, I\'ll get a "Shoe\'s and a Jacket" tonight.  But they never play that anymore :-(

Yoda-When is the last time you saw Hubinger Street, or any band for that matter? They happen to be pretty good these days.

Mark - I believe that you saw me at Donnegals in March (we actual spoke a little???), but I saw TB when they came to NJ in July.  I haven\'t seen Hubinger since 2000, but gave a them and Max Creek a couple listens at the request of some board members, and I still don\'t like it.  

And let me set this straight, for those that want to come at me or anyone that doesn\'t go to a ton of shows constantly... you don\'t have to constantly go see live music to know what music you like or have particular tastes, or even be a fan of a band for that matter...

Just talked to genc\'s.  Since the band is playing early tonight, he\'s hoping to be back in time for this show.  I\'m hoping he drags Timmy or maybe Dangle-do down for a little sit in action.  Would love that.

I\'m a little suspicious if this is really johns birthday or if he just feels like baking. Rumor is he has several birthdays a year. hmmm...
