THE HOUSE

like most things american, casinos just want your money. they want you to spend as much time losing in the casino as possible. as a result, i'm told tonight's set is abbreviated to approx eighty minutes.

submarine friendses

a low ceiling provides good sound. the saturday night crowd is well- behaved and subtle. OH breaks out bathing beauty with the interplanetary pareo and chinese shoes. yougoboy!

JACKPOT!

'all right now' continues to kick freakin ass. during the many chances TR-i has to solo in this toon, he hams it up for the close circuit cameras.

one of TR's idols, jack bruce, is adding tasteful flourishes to the basic root-note rockers, making even 'photograph' interesting to listen to.

CRAPS

some key toons [to which i've grown fond of] are missing. 'hammer' is on the cut list, though TR-i does get his two other toons. 'i feel free' and 'back off boogaloo' are great fun which are missing tonight.

there's no doubt; pareos are in the house!

LET IT RIDE

ringo is wearing black basketball shoes which adds a bounce to his aged step. his rapport with the crowd is labored yet appreciative.

timmy does wear the same outfit every night. only the reeds change.

are jack bruce and joe pesci related?

i feel a strange inexorable propulsion
