Well it was most definitely an electric evening for The Breakfast at the Acoustic Cafe on Friday night.... The lightening storm lit up the muggy summer night as the kidz gathered in Black Rock. This acoustic Breakfast show was nothing at all what I was expecting/hoping for, but it sure as hell left me screaming and yelling for more while scratching my head at the musical prowess exhibited by the fab four from \'staven.
Honestly I was hoping for more of a Timmy Tour-like atmosphere, but it was made clear early on that this show was NOT Timmy Tour. Acoustic...Shmacoustic....I still feel that Ron should get a strap for that bass and him and TPalms should be standing... but either standing or sitting...these kids rock and held it down tight...all night long...
My highlights included a ser Doughboy opener. It really set the feeling for the rest of the night... The Jam > Gravity seemed seamless and though TPalms said it was accidental, I definitely heard the Sunshine Superman in the jam.
I was waiting for a Coma on the boat...then on block island...then at the Family Jam....well it came acoustic on Friday and it came hard and nasty.... I loved the bluegrass Fairy. I was hoping for a Needle and The Damage Done as well, but Ronnie\'s vocals were right on for Southern Man. See The Light....PFFFT....just amazing...
The Vermont Song set 2 opener was a definite heady start to set 2. HLH, sick, but after the HLH from the Family Jam, it was a good time for a smoke break. Vera RULES acousticly. I am in complete agreement with the acoustic Language (keep it acoustic for life). Best Band On The Run I have heard them do. Cosmic Spaceway Rhyme, I dont know why, but ever since the Philly show a couple of months ago, that song will always be a Walsh Mahoney tune to me....I dig it and dug it. Episode 2....The Tournament of Tunes champion made it\'s first appearance since taking the crown and it was a monster...
After watching Lebowski a couple of times last week, it was great to hear the Man in Me, and I would like to give props to teammate Mikey Helluvahat Lakowski in getting the Simpleton show closer....
Not what I was expecting, but Acoustic Breakfast owned the night and our faces.....
