Woody's Smilin': Drummer Found!
Chixie Dicks Update:
In our Spinal Tap-ish quest to find a drummer of permanent status, I'm pleased that Mark Craig, of Grandpa Punk (check sp) (and, I believe: Randy Peters - check detail please) fame, is now available. (All I know, in short order, is that he has a great Ottawa punk accumen and has evolved and transcended well through the years)
He comes with great experience and I trust Bill Connors' character judgement in blending people on a project.
And we are just that: A PROJECT!
We don't work for pay - just charity. And we try to put more into an act than normal as a result.
Chixie Dicks are still workin' hard to prepare for Friday, November 16th as a solo act at Sonny's. We're also hoping to have a full compliment Saturday the 17th to open for Blackboard Nails. If we have even a modest availability of members, we'll still do a scaled down and shortened opening set for BBN. It'll still be sharp and full of our regular mirth.
That is all for now!

MOONRUNNERS ROCK IN THE SPIRIT - DECEMBER 1ST
Been tryin' to lock these guys in for the past week or so. Hat-Tip to Randy Collins for the intro. Moonrunners are a young band.. high school battle of the bands winners at that. They pointed me to their youtube videos. Clean and impressive, I say. See for yourself -
Looking forward that Dec 1st at Sonny's - These guys are a year older and that much better.
More details.. as always... forthcoming.. Keep checking back for more.
