Friday night videos – episode 68
I have a couple new videos at the end which come from last week’s Third Friday performances. But I wanted to start off with a video I used awhile back from the late Flavors bar downtown. The Permilla Project did a jam called ‘Black Beans and Rice’ there.
Just for fun I poked around Youtube to see what other music videos I could find shot at Flavors, and there’s a nice little sampling herein. One is the local duo of Chris Demone and Chuck Cook, better known as Test Kitchen. This was shot in 2008.
Another local band which developed a following there was Slim DeNunn and the High Rollers. This was from a 2009 performance there.
Little did the person who took this video of Chester River Runoff just four months ago know that may have been their swan song in the facility.
The venue definitely attracted a wide spectrum of bands, as you can see. It will be missed.
Shot just down the street from Flavors was this video, featuring local classic rockers Pugsly and their rendition of the Monkees’ hit, ‘Steppin’ Stone.’
I certainly wasn’t going for sushi. And the Sex Pistols weren’t the only punk band to do the song; I have a version from the band Minor Threat on tape. In either case, this one was a little slower.
Around the corner in front of the old courthouse was Semiblind. Here’s a solid version of ‘Gimme Shelter.’
Once in awhile my old camera catches a song just right. Michele does a good job with their sound.
By the way, I didn’t mean to slight the Zen Monkeys, who also played at Third Friday. I didn’t get a video of theirs and unfortunately I’m not sure how to embed a video from Facebook.
Well, that’s a wrap for FNV this time around. Hope you enjoyed the tunes.
Last chance to sign the petition
In order to have signatures safely into the state by June 30, the forces behind taking SB167 (the in-state tuition for illegal immigrants bill) are holding mass signing events at selected locations around the state.
Locally, there is one signing point for each county:
- Wicomico: MVA office, 251 Tilghman Road, Salisbury
- Worcester: 65th Street and Coastal Highway, Ocean City (parked at courthouse parking lot)
- Dorchester: Cambridge Post Office, 301 High Street, Cambridge
- Somerset: Westover Post Office, 27741 Fairmount Road, Westover
The initial wave of signatures turned in May 31 yielded over 47,000 of the 55,000 required, but pro-illegal groups like the ACLU and CASA de Maryland are planning to look over signatures with a fine-toothed comb to toss out any that are one scintilla deviant from the official on-file signature. (In other words, they don’t want the people to have a voice. Shame on the ACLU in particular since they should be all about liberty.)
Given the fact our counties combined for just 1,325 of the total we have a lot of room for growth. Hopefully you can make it out there if you haven’t signed yet.
