You know me, Enthusiasts: I occasionally fall to facile cynicism, but not on this one.
Lock’n (Lockin’? Lo’k’nn? Peter Shapiro’s Good-Time Fun-Job Sponsored by Visa?) was scheduled to start tonight with a performance from Billy and the Kids, but got cancelled due to the weather.
Yesterday afternoon, Benjy woke Billy up from his nap.
“Billy. Bad news.”
“Phil’s here?”
“No.”
“Bobby finally had my book read to him?”
“No. And: our book.”
“Sure, Benj. What’s the matter?”
“Huge storms. Thursday night shows have been cancelled.”
Billy sat up in bed; he was wearing a ratty shirt from one of his previous bar bands, and he stretched out his arms and his shoulders and his skinny legs.
“Benjy: I’m Billy fucking Kreutzmann and I punch dick and play drums.”
SHWAKKATHOOM!
“And now I have punched today’s dick.”
“Oh, God, why?”
“Show goes on. When you stop puking, make a call or two.”
And in less than 24 hours, the show got booked, tickets got sold, and the gear got set.
The show goes on; we’ll do it right here; there’s gotta be an outlet somewhere.
This is what I’m talking about. Why did Benjy set this shit up?
Looks like a cool little venue. Tor, get on that and keep us updated.

Shwakathoom!! Batman has nothing on you
I may or may not have stolen that from a Walt Simonson issue of Thor.
Time Sheath can fix that
LiveStream of Billy is here.

Alabama Getaway first song.
I am totally not keepin up on the interwebs, if I had read my email I would have known today was cancelled, before 5:00 PM.
If I had read my tweets maybe would have got tickets to the C-ville show.
No worries, life has been crazy, it is nice to chill in a hotel far from home.
Nice! I’ll put this up: thanks!
Stream is just audio, funny how spoiled we are, to say
“awe.. just audio of a live show far away, or in my case near”
Post away, thank you ToTD for everything.
BOOOOOOOO.
WHERE’S MY FREE REAL-TIME PERFECTLY-MIXED HI-DEF VIDEO?
(The stream sounds pretty good, actually.)
Can confirm the Jefferson is a great little theater. Should be a fun show
