Today was marked by the reuturn of Tuba Joe. Who’ll be with us all week and do the Shanghai Mermaid show with us on Saturday night.
We did ok today despite feeling a little shaky in the music. Stefan hadn’t touched any kind of horn in the last 4 days. That’s just weird. That guy is always playing the horn. Plus we had gotten used to the acoustics of having Cassidy on bass so getting Joe back is an adjustment for everyone.
Still, our new version of Bill Baily makes me smile every single time we do it. So dark. I love tunes that I get to make up new lyrics each time around.
Speaking of which – for the song “Bring it on Down” – the lyric of the day was – “Crazy little dolphin said with her flipper, I’ll show you my wet suit if you let me be your skipper.” Pure none-sense.
