The Hold Fucking Steady


I'm heading over to Dave's neck of the woods to catch a Hold Steady show at the legendary Cat's Cradle. Excited? A little.

Lucky U, both you bastards. Enjoy and report.

Dave said...

The other thing is this: Joe and I together constitute a Bastard Quorum (see Bastard Code Chapter 7, subsection 2:"When any 2/5 of the Bastards have assembled, they may, as a body, vote on matters pertaining to and affecting LBU as a whole, but only if they are comically drunk".)

Andy's reign of terror as Poobay is almost over! And his little sycophants, Jay and Lurker, will be doing Bastard laundry for the next ten years!

Jay said...

Starch, sir?

Andrew said...

I thought I abolished the Bastard Code when I took power. Damn.

Mike said...

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss..

The show was excellent but LOUD. Seriously, I think my right ear is damaged for a few days. One of the few bands I've seen that I actually would have preferred to see in a larger venue. Most of the songs were from the last two albums.

Joe and I had a good time. We took him for beers at our favorite enormo-tavern and dinner at a new brick oven pizza joint. We gossiped about you other bastards the entire time. None of it was flattering.

Joe said...

Indeed. My ears are still ringing. All in all a great time. Thanks, Dave (Poobah of Poobahs). That's his new title, by the way. Man, they've got a lot of good beer in that town. Less now than they did yesterday, but still a lot.

Mike said...

Sounds excellent. Maybe we can make this reunion bastardo happen next year. Should be on the new Poobah's agenda.

Andrew said...

Put this down to resentment at having been forced out of power, but I do feel any new poobah should be able to spell the word "poobah." Yes, Dave's August 12 1:52 am comment, I am talking to you.

Jay said...

Ha!

Dave said...

Power formally relinquished. No one who spells 'Poobah' as 'Poobay' deserves any power whatsoever.

There, I created a power vacuum. Who is going to make a mad grab for supremacy?
