I Told Ya !!
Hey!!!
I warned everybody!! I said,
“You’ve GOT to BE THERE!!
And if you were at the show Friday night, you know I was right to do so.
Everyone who missed it missed a RARE evening!!
Now, sadly, I forgot my camera; so all I can share are photos from the night before when Bob Starker and I greeted Pete Cassani’s arrival in Kolumbus!! Those few shots will have to do, but they are a pale shadow of Saturday’s excitement!!!!
The Uke Man was ON! With his political rant!! (if I do say so myself! – but the crowd is what gave me that idea). Nov. 2nd / the World Can’t Wait – Drive Out the Bush Regime was on the front burner, and I hit on my notion that:
We can all come together, wherever we may stand politically, to use the “new” notion of RESISTANCE - in ways appropriate for each of us – to REALLY put fear into the “business-as-usual crowd” and begin to turn things around.
The Uke Man stood in – ½ rant / ½ song – until “the boys” arrived, and handed it over to Rock’n’Roll!!
Bob Starker, Pete English, Ty Barnes, and Pete Cassani tore down the house!!
Victorians’ Midnight Café had NEVER seen such a show!! I’m NOT KIDDING!!! It was a KICK-ASS show – and the majority of Cassani’s songs are political!! Check out his website for samples ( http://www.thepeasants.net/ ).
My friend George, of Columbus NION was there with materials and a few advanced copies of our group’s new Nov.2nd stickers (a big hit), and he said a few words too – along with Rosie from Detroit a dedicated young lady on the road (with her like-minded friends) for a better world .
I want to thank all the NION folks, and the fans, and the friends, and the people who wandered in off the street!! You made MY evening!
Nov. 2 – Resist!!
- Uke Man
p.s. Pete may be returning to Cowtown in January.
