Hallowed ground was burning up my feet
I was standing out in your street
Right beneath your window
Watching your candles glow

Little bird outside our window
You said listen, he never sings the same
We listened for hours and hours
Little bird flew us away

I haven't been in the "CAT BOX" since my son played there a few years ago. The gentleman at the door quickly labeled us as "Parents" when we went in. We were the oldest ones there. The "Super Pineapples" is a SKA group my son played Trombone with for a short while. We went to see him play, but didn't enjoy the music much.
He has since graduated to better music. Double B Flat concert tuba with the Pacific Brass, Marching Tuba with the Watsonville band, and even played, by request, with the South County Symphony.
Not that I'm proud, but all of my 4 children play instruments. Me, I play KPIG on the radio or computer.

This being the 31st, it must be the last day for this thread. WebHog I'm sure will take care of the detail and start us anew in the morning.

haahahahah! I took my kid, then about 13 or 14, to see the Super Pineapples and some other 'more famous' ska band at the Veterans Hall one halloween or something. I thought as ska went, they were pretty good, but my ears were ringing for hours afterwards

at least its easy to dance to, just do the pogo in doubletime.

Thank you Ellie Mae! Love You!

Only went to the Catalyst once to see Adrian Belew perform with his Power Trio--my taste in music is catholic (small-c) and I can't turn away a great performance as long as 1) I can get tickets and 2) I can find childcare for the young-un.

It's a great venue to get a decent pizza, and I'm glad that they only allow drinking bottles in the bar, not at the tables. Santa Cruz does not need a place where the acts perform behind a steel cage or barbed wire. Not unless there's wrestling.

Do you even check on YouTube to see if the video is okayed for embedding? If it isn't, then it won't work here. (That's two things that won't work.)

Not trying to be mean, but it really helps to check on these videos. It gets awfully frustrating to click on the "play" image and I get this link to the video on YouTube. "Embedding Disabled By Request" is right there under the YouTube video link.

Paul Mitchell, now the bass player for I See Hawks in L.A.,
used to be in Strawberry Alarm Clock

here's a pic of him playing
at the High Sierra Music Festival in Quincy a few years ago:





if you get the chance, catch a Hawks show



then you will want to see them again!
