August 5th. FREE OUTDOOR SHOW. Music on the Parkway, brought to you by the Mount Pleasant Crime Watch. Music from 6 to 9. Cheap eats. Chris will play a solo set and sets with Jake Haller and Gabe Luddy, and with Edward Demille and George Hardy.The issue:
It has been indicated that the Fraternal Order of Police, who are sponsoring this event, would like it if we could play a patriotic tune or two. The problem is that there aren't any such tunes in our repertoire currently and we're not sure what a good one for us to perform would be. I suggested 'America The Beautiful' but I dunno.
So suggestions are welcome. Chris will be playing his electric guitar, Gabe will be playing a miked-up acoustic twelve-string, and I'll be on the piano; we'll all sing. To make your job either easier or harder, here's the set list we've currently got (in no particular order):
- Absolutely Legless (written by Gabe)
- Nadine
- Johnny B. Goode
- The Weight
- The Local Expatriate (written by Chris)
- Leaving in the Morning (written by Chris)
- Before You Accuse Me
- Early In The Morning
- Bend Down Low
- Dead Flowers
- Midnight Special
