randissimo Posted October 9, 2006 Report Posted October 9, 2006 WOW !!! Reptet really knocked me out! It was great to finally listen to and hang with Johnny E.. And his band is outstanding. Tight, creative, and a lot of fun.. Quote
randissimo Posted October 9, 2006 Report Posted October 9, 2006 Told ya'. ...and the opening act... Quote
randissimo Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 Reptet plays D.C. tonight at Twins Jazz. Sure would love to be a fly on the wall when Johnny E and Son Of Weizen meet face to face! We're playing at North By Northwest in Philly tonight and obviously won't make that scenario.. I hope somebody gets pics of that event and posts them.. Quote
PHILLYQ Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 I want to see a picture of Weizy & Johnny E hugging!!! Quote
bertrand Posted October 10, 2006 Report Posted October 10, 2006 I'm on my way over. Don't have a camera though Bertrand. Quote
Stefan Wood Posted October 11, 2006 Report Posted October 11, 2006 Just Bertrand and I represented the board in the audience. Weiz didn't show. It was a school night..... The Reptet was freaking great! Saw 2 1/2 sets (had to leave midway through the third to catch a ride home), and had a blast. Quote
Chalupa Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 (edited) OMG Weizen is right. Johnny E is the Devil. Look at those burning red eyes! Edit: Hmmm... red eyes not coming through on this attachment. I blame Clinton. Edited October 13, 2006 by Chalupa Quote
Chalupa Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 (edited) See what happens when you wash your trombone in hot water??? That's right - shrinkage. Let this be a lesson to you. Edited October 13, 2006 by Chalupa Quote
Joe G Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 Wake up Joe! I was really enjoying that Nut Brown Ale. Quote
Peter Johnson Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 You mean those two cans of PBR behind you aren't your empties? God I miss Philly and the tritone. I lived four blocks from that place. Good times. Wake up Joe! I was really enjoying that Nut Brown Ale. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 The band was killin'! We played Tritone last night and had a ball. We had the place rockin' for our entire 100 minute set (is that like the 100 yard dash?! 'cos it seemed like it last night... the set went so fast...) I can't wait to see the Reptet again. Hopefully on a dual-bill with everyone's favorite organ trio! Quote
bertrand Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 The Reptet gig at Twins was awesome - what a great band! I really enjoed the Marx Brothers suite, although I feel Gummo got shortchanged. 'H.R.' is a beautiful piece - I listened to most of the CD last night. I had to leave mid-way through the third set. They were singing about their dicks, so maybe it was good time to go Bertrand. Quote
Aggie87 Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 I had to leave mid-way through the third set. They were singing about their dicks, so maybe it was good time to go Bertrand. ...wait, aren't there girls in the band? Quote

They were singing about their dicks, so maybe it was good time to go Bertrand. Man, I was sweating so bad at that show in DC it looked like a pissed my pants. You missed our show stopper (the title track of our new CD - "Do This!") where the horn players ran down the steps and out on to U Street squealing freakishly as un-expecting bystanders fled in horror. All the while Ben the bassist and I were kickin' out the jams freestylie upstairs. Upon the horns return we played some driving punk jazz squawking and stuck out our tongues while making silly faces at the remaining audience members. Lots of fun. Oh, and the song about our dicks is called "Fish Market" (newer tune that will be on our next CD). It's about a couple frat boys named Tobi and Sam (played by our two female members Tobi and Sam) who go out looking to get laid. They find themselves at a lesbian bar called the fish market where upon they get their asses beat down for hitting on the lady friend of a monstrously strong bull dyke named T Luscious. The lyrics go as follows: To the Fish Market we go - to pick up chicks But we can't get none because - we all have dicks Quote

Chuck Nessa Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 John, say hi to all in the band. Skid and I really enjoyed the band at the start of your tour. I hope "all of youse" enjoyed the experience and keep the message coming. Quote
Johnny E Posted October 16, 2006 Author Report Posted October 16, 2006 John, say hi to all in the band. Skid and I really enjoyed the band at the start of your tour. I hope "all of youse" enjoyed the experience and keep the message coming. Thanks Chuck, and thanks to all the board members who made it out to all the shows. It was a blast connecting real life faces to the words and ideas I've been reading all these years. Unfortunately Weizen was not able to make it (packing I guess ) to the Twins show. Image me and the weizbag arm-in-arm swigging a couple hefeweizen's...That would have been a picture! Oh well, maybe next time. Quote
