Birdy Posted April 12, 2007 Report Share Posted April 12, 2007 Is the Saxony the one with Grill Top beside it? That's nice. What about the not so Luxury Luxury Inn? Gotta think that place would be cheap. HOLLA! hahaha Stu you make me laugh.... surprised you're getting this one off work! BRUTSKI! Get fired already.

Swifty Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Hey boogie,It all depends on how much you want spend. Most of these MOTELS mentioned above are not the nicest but if its just a place to rest a few hours I would recommend the Saxony. It does have a greasy spoon for breakfast right next door. Maybe you could get your brother to tag along too???!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

backbacon Posted April 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 What a wicked show on Saturday! I have never before witnessed Diesel Dog bring jams to the level they did on Saturday night. Listen to the Fishin' With the Skipper when the SBD recording surfaces for evidence of this intensity! It was great to see some of the regular 'dance club' bar patrons getting down too! One hip hop guy was dancing super hard!! (And I don't mean QQC or Thorgnor ) It was awesome! I am really looking forward to hearing the recording of Madgrass' opening set with special guests Diesel Dog's Ryan and Floyd sitting in on a couple songs. I couldn't hear much of it from the door but received great feedback about it from people. Big thanks to all that made it such an enjoyable evening!

Schwa. Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Yup, Fishin' was easily the most "jammy" i've heard these guys. Awesome extended jam in there and great timing on the ups and downs.Great night, thanks backbacon and babsy mudcock for all the work and afterfun!!!

backbacon Posted April 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Yeah, you better make it down for the next one, Baj! You missed a great time! I have a SERIOUSLY messy apartment to come home to today! Ugh, the final guest left FINALLY at 8:30 last night... about 30 seconds before I passed out for the night! All good times though! You are very welcome. Babsy and I are eager to do it all again! We'll keep you posted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark tonin Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 It sounds like it was a great show! I'm glad things went well. That's one of the things I love about Diesel Dog, they play music that is accessible yet original and it hooks many types of music listeners (pun intended).I'm sure Madgrass was also lots of fun ... I liked what I heard from them when they played at the last FUNdraiser show.Peace, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdy Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 (edited) What a super fun time! Thanks Diesel Dog & Madgrass!!

backbacon Posted May 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Nice pics Birdy! Yeah, the lighting was a bit sparse towards the back of the stage. Here's a couple of Studog's shots: Here's a link to download the ~ 5 minute video I shot on my camera.
