Happy Memorial Day!
I thought this was for the 4th of July, but apparently my neighbors who own these procreating pink flamingos have something else in store for July.

Once upon a time, 30 years ago, I had a friend who was into Stryper. I went along with him to one of their shows, much more to see the silliness than to show the band any kind of support. Strange as the evening was, I ended up catching a Stryper bible. Somewhere in a box in my garage is that relic from the past.
Fast forward to last Thursday night. BugGiRL’s Stryper-inspired logo graced the Club 66 stage while the drummer sported a throw-back denim vest with Stryper back patch. The night was destined to be a tongue-in-cheek fun one, and BugGiRL did not disappoint.
Did I mention that their current album is called “Lesbians for Satan”? Stryper would be proud. 😉
Their tour continues through California, Arizona, and Texas so check them out if you are anywhere near their route.
@earlymanmusic @ToxicHolocaust @3iob Once upon a time (1/11/09 to be exact), Early Man was booked to play at Stillwater with 3 Inches of Blood and Toxic Holocaust. I was there and enjoyed 3IoB and Toxic Holocaust. However, even though my memory tells me that Early Man had some sort of vehicle troubles and couldn’t make it, everyone I talk to says they remember seeing Early Man play at that show. Flash forward 5+ years and Stillwater has become Club 66 and Early Man is set to play again. I figured my memory would be jogged when I saw them again and I’d realize that indeed I had seen them before.
That didn’t happen. So after the show I asked Pete if they had ever played at this location before. His response was that they were once scheduled to play at the current residence of Club 66, but he has no memory of having done so. Therefore, I believe this was Early Man’s first appearance in Ashland. If someone has a photo or some evidence from that 2009 evening that can prove Early Man was indeed there I would love to see it.
Last night I had the pleasure of seeing The Pink Floyd Experience while visiting Portland. They still have a couple more shows left on this tour. If you live near Bremerton, Washington (3/29/14) or Vancover, BC (3/30/14) you don’t want to miss them.
