---------- "throwin' pennies on the tracks and playin' in the rain...oblivious of the world around us that was going insane"
i toured with dan fadel for a while when working for robert randolph and hazy malaze always toured with. kow and hazy malaze are 2 bands that were pretty damn good and should have and maybe could have continued. 1/3 of hazy malaze is neal casal who plays with ryan adams. i didnt know cole was in kow till i toured with him and he played this song on the bus called I Get A Feelin, i think thats what it was called. I said it was a hazy malaze tune and he corrected me and told me who it was and said he use to play that with kow.. anyway, Cole was the lead singer of kow so hearing those tunes on the myspace page is very cool. kow getting together for a show is pretty cool shit and you should prob check it out...
---------- "All I can say is that there's a sweetness here, a Southern sweetness, that makes sweet music. . . . If I had to tell somebody who had never been to the South, who had never heard of soul music, what it was, I'd just have to tell him that it's music from the heart, from the pulse, from the innermost feeling. That's my soul; that's how I sing. And that's the South."
just to chime in, and maybe bring this to the top...
This is one show that you do not want to miss. Many of you know AC as the drummer for Mofro, but wait until you see him sing, play the keys and wail on the sax
I will be in attendance for this show(season is over, only workin 3 days a week in may) ---------- "It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation." - Herman Melville

---------- "Now if you happened to come down here tonight...and you don't wanna hear the person next to you sang, and you don't want'em to dance, cause you might spill your drink, you came to the wrong show in the wrong venue."
This is the "NEW" wills pub The old wills pub was torn down & was definatley what I grew up with as a jookhouse. You had to be there to understand. MSYNAN knows what I'm talkin' about.
If you lived in Orlando...you've probably got at least 5 good Will's Pub stories.

if any of y'all could get some vid clips of AC in acion, I would love to see it. Have a grand time!! ---------- "No effort, no gain No effort, stay the same No don’t you ever try to live a lie"
It was all and more. AC is a bad dude, ya'll, in case ya didn't already know. I must admit that PIG is my favorite animal, but KOW is now a close second.
Tiny place, top-notch crowd, AC on keys and lead vocals. It was probably 85 degrees inside...a solid 90 with humidity and smoke.
We had the Central FLA Coalition in full effect. Liz, Sean, JD, Jen, Clay, Beaufro and SUE WEBB...job well done.
AC, got another KOW date in mind yet?!

Thanks for the review, can't wait to see any video and pics that may have been taken. ---------- "No effort, no gain No effort, stay the same No don’t you ever try to live a lie"
Hey msynan...sorry we missed you! Yeah JD was back by the board taping, hanging with E and Sue and my trophy wife and sometimes me. Then he got down in it and went up front where Beaufro and Liz were boogeying. I was moving in and out trying to get pics and video clips.
I don't know how I could add any more excitement to it than what E and msynan said y'all (but I'll try.) Jook joint goodness served up with a funkified plate of R&B with some spicy soul, red hot riffs, and genuine shake yo ass all added to make it mmm, mmmm good.
If that makes no sense at all then maybe this video will. This was 2nd or 3rd song in. They're all just getting warmed up, trust me. (If somebody knows the names of the songs can you hit me with em?)
More to come as I get them loaded up.

Anyone know the name of the young black man who sat-in on guitar on a few songs? My God, he was wearing it out.
And this one is for AC...

ES, got a video that showcases his talents in the que. And yeah, I damn sure hope he's playing full time in a band somewhere and had a night off or something. He's way too talented to do this here and there. I guess we've teased y'all enuf huh? Sorry, I can't make YouTube go faster.

These are the Orlando heavy hitters y'all members come & go...but it's always a party.
Not to mention special guest musicians sitting in at a moments notice.
AND...if you thought this show was good (which it obviously was) wait till you see Anthony Cole's band:

That was you? Just kidding, no one notices someone acting a fool in a room full of fools acting a fool. Good damn thing, too, as I was in Fool-Effect.

I got several more vids y'all. I got another featuring Roland that's even better than the one above. Meanwhile you'll have to live with that one and maybe a pic. ---------- MofroFan1 "I've bought houses in less time than it takes for a woman to shop for a skirt and blouse." ~Lewis Grizzard

Looks like a good time! Clay, "Song 2" is "Red Hot Momma" -- though I am not sure who the original artist is. I've seen Widespread Panic do this song. Thanks for the vids and pics!
You will also find video's of other good music from Orlando. This is the shit that I love about Orlando...not the bullshit you hear on the radio. FUCK CLEAR CHANNEL! ---------- "throwin' pennies on the tracks and playin' in the rain...oblivious of the world around us that was going insane"
