bradm Posted May 1, 2003 Report Share Posted May 1, 2003 Another Thursday, another set-blender...ho hum... Yup, Dr. Huxtable (the band) is putting on a wing-ding of epic proprtions to celebrate the launch of the redesigned Dr. Huxtable (the website) and the birthday of Dr. Huxtable (the guitar player and Sanctuarian). It's two sets each from Dr. Huxtable (the band) and Quivertwist, done in that seamless style jamband fans have come to know and love and tapers have come to know and despise . Usual logistics apply: Cafe Dekcuf, start time ca. 10pm, $5 at the door. Is you in or is you ain't? Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, the guys in the cotton loincloths with last year's Egyptian theme provided yummy beefcake to look at ... I'd be happy to go with that theme again. What was the question, again? Oh, right. Please do get the Huxies to play at this year's Gathering. Then we'd be assured that DancingFool would show up, and I could run a pool to see how many minutes it would take for him to hurt himself on or near the dance floor. He so gets into the groove ...

Aloha, Brad Are you sure you aren't thinking about Hawkwind, Brad? Actually, things would be a lot easier if I could just get my hands on a CD of a Dr. Hux performance that could help me pitch the idea to the organizing committee Rob Not Bob subtle not subtle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh-huh...he said...huh-huh...wood...huh-huh... Considering the amount of 'er given last night, I'm surprisingly awake. I think that was the best I've seen Quivertwist play; they stretched things out and jammed more than I've heard them do before. (Qt songs tend to be more "composed" and structured, which is why set-blending them with a more loose/open band like Dr. H works well, I think.) And Huxtable put on one of the best sets I've heard them do, 'way spacier than usual. Nice "Eyes...", nice to hear the new tunes done up electrically, nice to see the JD bottle perched prominently...

Phred Posted May 2, 2003 Report Share Posted May 2, 2003 Thanks to all that came... QT is an amazing band, with tight an excellent musicians. I kept looking forward to blending/ jamming with them. The synth-wars thing between Rick and I was some of the most fun I have ever had on stage. He is an amazing keys player. I had to bust my chops to attempt to keep up with him.

Hux Posted May 2, 2003 Report Share Posted May 2, 2003 This is nuts, but get this.... Bradm shows up at Dekcuf last night, and hands me a wrapped object "happy birthday" he says - it's a freekin' violin bow!!!!! So I had a little attempt at doing the Page thing on stage, but I need some time to figure out which effects work best with it and generally to get the hang of it....but it'll be making a return appearance for sure! Thanks bro - that was classic! (and thanks also to Dancin Fool I believe? who was part of it as well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Low Roller Posted May 2, 2003 Report Share Posted May 2, 2003 I bet the violin bow is bigger than certain mini-guitars... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted May 2, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2003 quote:Originally posted by Dr. Huxtable: (and thanks also to Dancin Fool I believe? who was part of it as well)It was, indeed, a combined BradM / Fool of the Dance production: I had the idea, e-mailed df about bows (with an eye to picking up a cheap one at Steve's Music on my way to Dekcuf), and it turns out he had an old one (in less than stellar shape) that he had got for free some time ago, which he let me have (along with rosin) for free. I stopped by his place en route to Dekcuf, and the rest is history...well, I'm history, anyway, after last night...I think I got to bed at 3:30am, and got up at 7:30am...gonna be a weekend of The Big Nap...
