Gilreins - 11/26/08

Taken by the fabulous Joy LeClaire, Steve's wife, which is why they are a bit horn-centric

The highlight of the evening was when Steve Going, aka Wilbur of Wilbur and the Dukes made a surprise sit in with the Valves.
I need to get a hat like that. All hats end up looking like clown hats on me cuz of my gigantic head. But I digress. Steve had the place going bonkers, and Katie succumbed to the rock and roll voodoo as evidenced by her eyes of satan in this pic. No amount of red-eye removal tool would clean the evil out of those, ooooh spooky!!
Mike did his best to keep up. This photo doesn't show his hands frantic twittering to and fro
The horns ended up walking out into the crowd and jumping up on the bar...
It was a lot of fun for the people standing right next to the bar....
Of course, there are no microphones near the bar, so for everyone else it was sort of like watching a mime act but with more brass and less whiteface.
Even Ben was a bit perplexed about not only what they were playing, but how they were going to get off the bar without killing themselves
There was also a lot of silent prayer that no one would split their pants open
Steve gives the universal sign of "EH? Speak up sonny"
Roger was smart enough to stay firmly on the ground.
Looks like Greg's harmonica mic was plugged into his pants, but I'm sure it's just an illusion. I can be seen beside him looking down my nose, scoping the room for babes with low self esteem and an exhibitionistic streak
BONK!! Just kidding I'm sure he didn't actually hit his head on the mic. Or am I?
Awww, Katie "Two Skoops" is such a little cutie. I will regret the day she wakes up and says to herself "Why in the hell am I in a band with a bunch of old geezers" but we all know it's coming.
And Ladies and Gentlemen, your first official look at our new drummer Rich Buck. Yes it's true, if some of you hadn't figured it out yet, we've had a new drummer for several months, but getting him on film has been almost as elusive as me finding a girl who will talk to me before I put money in her garter.
And finally, me and JD, the Miserable Bastard contingent of the band sit and discuss the smell of sweaty faux leather sweatbands. I think it has a nice, earthy tang with just a hint of citrus and english leather, JD?...
