Pre-show video: Claude discusses hat-Juju with members of the Missoula Mafia
Special thanks to Mark for the field report. If anyone has audio/video/photos from this show, please email TheGourdsNews.
bean bowl, oyster, collections, bottle & a dime, tearbox, maria...monster of a show. at least on paper.
ReplyDeleteI should say. Hope this one got taped.
ReplyDeleteJuju or Ju-Ju is a word of West African origin, derived from the French joujou (toy) [1], that refers to the supernatural power ascribed to an object; or fetish. It can also refer to the use of such objects, making it a form of witchcraft.[2]
ReplyDelete"Locals"? Looks suspiciously like a couple of the Missoula Mafia to me. Check yer facts!
ReplyDeleteyou're absolutely right, anonymous #3. thank you. I initially thought the guy in the cowboy hat sounded like JR (I've never actually seen him before) but I wasn't 100% sure and I wanted to get the story posted, so I just listed him as one of the "teton locals"...totally reckless jounalism! anyway, that reminds me, when am I going to get that new & improved MM definition for the gourds dictionary? I've been expecting it for a couple of weeks now.
ReplyDeleteNo tapers. The show was pretty hot. Not an A+, but a very solid B+. Bean bowl, bottle, collections were cool, they ain't popped up in a bit, bottle especially with an extended rock out in the middle. Jericho/web was a great opener. Do4u had great energy and good crowd midnight rider singalong. Yoli gal ants were all particularly good too.
ReplyDeleteThis show just wouldn't stop. I give it a solid A- for the duration alone. I could give a rats ass if I ever hear G & J ever again but this particular version was REALLY good.
ReplyDeleteMeg
.......media whore James Roof, aka JR, aka The tooth, aka Papa Blow-Me
ReplyDeleteI give this show a better rating that B+. I agree wqith Meg Solid A- and could give a rats ass about Gin and Juice either, given their own material is soooooooo much better. Claude ripping Variety Hour was such a treat and he is tasty on that electric guitar. MORE CLAUDE Songs NOW!
