Yeah Brennser, I knew I liked you!  (Beware, a certain board regular may now start referring to the crush I have on you....)
 
 Were you around for the 15 Minute Club?

dammit, dammit, DAMMIT.  The Fleshtones rock so well and have so much fun...I told a friend of mine during the show, "you know, I always remember they're great, but I forget just why when they're coming back through town, and this is it..."  They rock so well, have a great time, have a whole ream of fun, scissor kick, walk on the bar, go in to the audience, jump, dance, have a great time.  It's such a fun night, whether you know their music ahead of time or not.  
 
 Skeeter, great to see someone else having so much fun.
 
 kosmo, tomorrow night you and komette will be having the most fun of the folks on the board.  Go crazy and enjoy......

I definitely won't let another 10 years go by before seeing them again.  I had a helluva time.  You had to really pay attention to what they were doing.  Turn your back for 10-15 seconds and suddenly Peter's standing on the mixing board, the guitarist is on the bar, the crowd is singing into the mike they left on the floor...and they never let up for a second.
 
 There's really no other way to describe it than just a great big rock 'n' roll party.

I don't remember them ever being like that back in the early to mid 80s. They just showed up, played, and hit the road again. Good but not great. Nothing that ever left much of an impression on me. I've seen them plenty of times yet can't remember even one show. In fact, they were kind of boring yet they played my kind of music. Did they just rippen with age or something?

Standard cool show from the tones. Same as when I saw them in '89, '93, '98, '00 etc. Too damned loud though. Glad I brought my earplugs.

But did you love it?  I think the energy and fun they bring is infectuous......Peter Zaremba dancing in that surfy cocktail way, Ken and Keith with their fun choreographed kicks and circles....yum.
