art of the jam

another fun night, if sparsely attended (prolly a function of fat tuesday falling the night befo'). brian batson from confusatron was in the house, tho, and blew fiery sax the first set, and josh clark kicked some traps in the second. billy whitewater wilson returned on theremin and is becoming a regular. besides him, it seems like the lineup is stabilizing somewhat to include jam-meister lee allen and john "johnny peckerwood" shook on dueling basses; ron "the velvet hammer" geida and yr humble chronicler o' events on gtrs, and dave karnaggio on drumaggio. highlights: first three songs "before you guys got shithammered" [karnes]; first-ever peter tosh "legalize it"; reggae "war pigs". to satisfy ron 'n' dave's _passion for order_, the jam-meister compiled a list o' every song ever played at the jam from old "art of the jam" blogs. unfortunately, he didn't save the file (duh). so, this morning, i went back and repeated the exercise. hey, lee, am i the fucking _employee of the month_ or what?!?!?
