Boston Waterfront: Boston, Pa.
Beautiful setting, right on the
water. Not a big crowd, but a good time was had by all. Whitey played
with brushes all night, which helped make this performance unique. Harry
didn't feel well, sinus problems, but he did hit all his high vocal
parts. We're looking forward to playing this club outside in the
summertime.

The Cellar: Struthers, Ohio
Da joint was packed with rock
n' roll people. About 700 or so. I was in heaven. My boys, Whitey and
Harry were bringing it, yea baby. Here's me shootin off my big mouth.
"Boilermaker", "Rockin' Roll City", "Minimum Wage", "Graceland", "We
Come A Long Way", "Somethins Cookin", "End Of The Line", "You Go Your
Way", "Who Dat Do Dat", "Hells Highway", "Smoke Two Joints". It was easy
on this good rockin nite. Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes came on
after us and did a great show. Guitar-sub, Ralph, hung in there real
well. Ole friend, drummer, Joey Bawls, was hittin it. South Side sang
his can off and also played strong harp. I was proud just to be hangin
out.

Wilberts: Cleveland, Ohio
We all watched as the Cleveland
Cavliers lost a huge playoff game to the Detroit Pistons in a
heartbreaker. Ouch, take da wind outta my sails......Not here. Lets lift
the spirit of these beautiful people......."Lazybones", "Rockin' Roll
City", "White Trash Tragedy", "Graceland"........opened the two hour
first set. Set two continued the spritual and musical onslaught.
Powerful! Mike Miller, club owner and ole friend, got up onstage to jam
some guitar but chickened out.

Moy's Cove: Monroeville, PA
First time at da Cove. I got a
good feeling in my soul as we were firein out "Git By", the opening song
and that feeling lasted all nite long. "T-Bird" was exceptional. We did
a make fresh take on Taj Mahals "Corina" for Doc Weston who we hadn't
seen in years.

Moondogs: Blawnox, PA
Tom Breiding and American Son
played first tonight and did some serious good rockin. Very cool, very
musical, good songs. Everybody enjoyed their set. We came on and did
almost two straight hours. Highlights were "Who Dat Do Dat", "You Go
Your Way", "Two Story House" and a crazy version of "Burnin Up". I
called Tom Breiding up to da stage to sing "Its All Over Now", we had
some fun wit dat. We then got Tom's guitar player, Jeff Stevens to sing
Chuck Berry's "Memphis", while he played some good sh*t on my ole tiger
guitar. Whitey and Harry smiled da whole way thru.

Excuses: South Side-Pgh, PA
"Git By", "Something's Cookin",
Boilermaker", We had a whole lot of fun tonight. I was shooting off my
big mouth TALKIN LOUD & SAYIN NOTH'IN, it ain't what ya say, its how ya
say it. A simple approach that seems to work for me. Harry sang "Pots n'
Pans". "Gorilla" & "Here Comes The Weekend" both showed up in the second
set as, did "Side Walk Romeo"- the old Silencers classic. Whitey Cooper
soul shoutin & Lenny Ferrari, ex Lou Reed drummer on tubs, closed out a
very musical and intimate night.
