Joey and I will be improvising together on guitar and reeds.

I reckon we’re supposed to play around 9:30, in between sets by Big Fat Gap. The Rafters open at 7:30.
We might even have some CD’s available at long last.

hell awaits

Okay all you hobnobbers, get ready to spend some of the few weary god-given hours you have left checking out a right fine pile of music put forth for your ill consideration by that quintet of dubious moral character, Savage Knights. Comin’ off a modestly successful little midwest-ish tour we did weekend before last, so we ought to be settling into our sound with ease and power.
Some other stuff, too.

Wednesday, December 3, Marvell Event Center, 9:00 doors, $5 showtime/$4 doorstime: Savage Knights with Minnie Skirt and the Bootlegs, Aquila, and Burning Rays.
We’re supposed to take the stage around 11, third of four acts (probably a little bit shorter set than we’d like to throw down with).
myspace.com/savageknights
Minnie Skirt, who play after us, will bring some retro soul sounds: myspace.com/minnieskirtandthebootlegs
Aquila will bring some heavy duty psychedelia from New York: myspace.com/beyondvega
Burning Rays, well, Grayson probably said it better than I could (scroll down a bit): http://www.indyweek.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A271548

Saturday, December 6, Nightlight: Savage Knights with Data Hata & DJ Family Vacation, and DJ Nasty Boots.
Our first FreQNC night at the old Nightlight. Don’t worry, you can dance to us. If you’re not afraid.

Saturday, December 13, Steve Burnett’s House
Not sure the whole score yet, but I believe it’ll be an improvised thing, at least for my part. More later.

Saturday, December 20, Cat’s Cradle: Dexter Romweber and the New Romans with Big Fat Gap and the Rafters.
Free Christmas gathering at the Cradle. I’ll be playing with the New Romans.

Solid Footing

Hi-flyin’ dustbowl wiseacres everywhere, spill your guts now before the clicks whirr down and the springs get sprung and this town spins faster than a Jersey nine-iron.

Friday, Nov. 7, Marsh Woodwinds, Raleigh, 8 pm, donation, BYO: Savage Knights with Trio Slicnaton.
We’ll be laying it on the line like no fez-spitter’s ever done this side of the Continental Divide.
Slicnaton at, then the Savage Knights will play two sets of darn good music.
That’s 707 Person St, down from the Krispy Kreme.

Saturday, Nov. 8, The Good Cherry, Lynchburg, VA, 8:00 pm: Razor Wire Safety Net with MHM Trio.
Hot-footing it up Falwell way again. That’s me & Christopher Thurston & Brian Donohoe. You should take a road trip and go see it. Or just tell all your Lynchburg friends.
