vibes Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 I'm listening to "Drunken Mary - Mary on Sunday" right now. Good stuff. Good luck, with the shows, John. Let me know if you guys decide to come to the Midwest. (nice "Unity" shirt, by the way. I've got one too ) Quote

They come one size to small, they shrink and they fall apart after about ten washings...but who out there besides us has a Larry Young T-shirt? Quote

I got the "Where is Brooklyn?" and "Let Freedom Ring" shirts, too. They're very soft, and I avoid putting them in the dryer so they won't wear out as quickly. But yeah, they are definitely tight. The "Freedom" shirt feels two sizes too small, unfortunately. Quote
danasgoodstuff Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 Will try to make the 9/24 show... Quote

Dave James Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 Can't promise I'll make it, but I'm gonna try to get there. Will there be a special Organissimo rooting section set up? No cover? Is it OK to say "I'm with the band?" Up over and out. Quote
Johnny E Posted September 13, 2005 Author Report Posted September 13, 2005 The Portland show is FREE!!! They never have a cover at the Tugboat. The bands solicite tips from the audience. And I must say, the past two times I've played there the crowd is quite generous. Maybe it's cause they know we drove all the way down from Seattle, or maybe that's just the way people in Portland are, but we made enough to pay for gas and put $100 in the band fund last time. Hopefully we can sell a few CD's as well. We'll see. Hope you can make it dave. Quote
Peter Johnson Posted September 13, 2005 Report Posted September 13, 2005 The tugboat is great, has a great beer & wine selection, and a terrific vibe. I should be able to crash at my folks' house that night, so I'll try to make the 9/24 show as well! Quote
