Last night I played a fun 25th anniversary wedding gig with my new friend and vocalist Marley Dzis.
Highlights included:
-Marley's awesome mom who insisted-upon/assisted-me-in stealing a bottle of Tanqueray.
-Marleys family's Polish folk-song/pop wedding band that played after our dinner set.
-The slew of interesting guests, some of whom looked like this. There was this one in particular where every time I saw him I swear he had a new teenage chick on his lap and axe-like deodorant in hand--always spraying with furious vigor.
-The groom of the wedding--probably about 5'5" and a buck fitty, the bride however must have been 6' two fitty. The hug from the bride at the beginning of the night let me know right from the start that I was in for quite the evening.
-Being stranded after the gig 5-6 miles west of the nearest 'el' stop, so walking into a BK at 10:30pm in a suit with my guitar and offering 3 kids $10 for a ride to the 'el', which they cautiously accepted.
It was a lot of fun, there's another one in two weeks and honestly I can't wait.
Marley sounded great too! Check her out with her former band "Current Impulse Seven" especially on this track called "XVeme Improvisation"
