bradm Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Yup, I'll be there (and yes, it's Wednesday). There's an opening act, The Golden Seals, who I saw once, and liked a lot.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calamity Jane Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 cover charge & time details? If I can get to bed by 1-ish maybe I can swing this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 I know the doors are at 8pm, but haven't seen a cover charge listed. There's an opening act, and The Golden Dogs usually do just one set, so it might be an early end (I'm hopeful it is, as I have things happening on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights).Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zero Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 I can feel it coming in the air tonight. Oh lord.I heard that Golden Dogs show in Guelph with Speakeasies opening was unbelievably good. Dave Azzolini is as ever a consummate musician, showman and especially guitarist. I get the sense their original drummer Beau (Stockton I believe) turned over leaving Dave and wife Jessica Grassi as the only two original members. The original Golden Dogs were off the charts. The current line up is a little watered down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Dave Azzolini is as ever a consummate musician, showman and especially guitarist. At one Dogs show in Ottawa, during (I think) "Elevator Man", which has some of the best guitar playing in that two-tone ska "skanking" style, I commented to Velvet about how good Dave was. "Yeah," Velvet replied. "He's deadly." Dave is one of those players that doesn't overwhelm you with flash or over-the-top "Wow!" playing, but plays exactly what needs to be played for that particular song. And I'm enormously hyped for this show because I think it'll allow me to get their new album. Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gentlemonkey Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Always thought beau looked like jay cleary... You and the old drummer should hang out, zero. ..just a couple of good ole boys, beau and luke.HEEHAW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calamity Jane Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 okay meggo...you've set the bar for me....I figure if YOU'RE going, I definitely will go too. I just secured the babysitting (afer having to endure a 'why-would-you possibily-want-to-go-out-until-1 AM-on-a-work-night?-Are-you-sure-this-is-a-good-idea? type lecture' from my own mother!!! *sigh* we're always gonna be kids in our parents' eyes, eh? i'll be solo that evening as Dave and the next-door-to-THAT PLACE boys hone their craft. Who wanna meet up beforehand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(At times, it sounded like Grand Theft Bus, but the Grand Theft Bus from The Bizarro World.)It was a short show (1h15?), but on a school night, I kind of appreciated it, and they packed as much energy into the one set as some bands spread over an entire two-set show. Two sets of what we had last night would have been exhilarating, but debilitatingly exhausting.Aloha,Brad Edited September 14, 2006 by Guest Add note that 1985 is a Wings cover.

skelter Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Just Can't Get Enough = 1985 I believe???Absolutely love this band ... probably the best live show in Canada right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Just Can't Get Enough = 1985 I believe??? You might be right. I got a look at the band's set list last night, and it listed "1985", but it wasn't played where/when it was listed, and they didn't bring out the song-title cards for the encore; there's also a track titled "Nineteen Hundred and Eighty-Five" on the new CD (which I have playing right now ), so I'll check when I get to it.

bradm Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 any chance there was a taper or two there? Would love to get some live GD soonYup, I recorded it. My usual deal with The Golden Dogs is that I send them the recordings, and then they let me know what, if anything (such as give them to friends), I can do with them. I'll try to remember to let you know, once I hear from them, after I send it to them.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_rawk Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 At one point, 'tween songs, they started singing that bit from the National Lampoon movies.I nearly pissed myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
