Iris-palooza-CRANKCASE TO PLAY BAY RIDGE,BROOKLYN

[JerseyRich]

That's right folks!

Come on out to The Wicked Monk on 5th Avenue in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn (Home of the world famous Iris) on Saturday, June 12th for yet another R&F Show reunion.

Only 5 bucks to get in and see the Original Ron and Fez Show Band, Crankcase, rock out. Due to the close proximity of some of R&F's favorite callers and favorite show guests, surprises will definitely be in store.

1/2 price drink specials, good ol Irish pub surroundings, and the SAFEST NEIGHBORHOOD in BROOKLYN, are just a couple reasons to spend your evening with some old pals of the show.

Who knows, perhaps Iris will show?

EASY ACCESS from the Verrezano Bridge, the BQE, the Belt Parkway, Exit 86th Street Exit. The R Train 86th street stop is one block away.

And for the people travelling from afar, The Best Western Gregory Hotel is just one block away.

So head on down to the Wicked Monk, in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn (http://www.wickedmonk.com) at 8pm Saturday June 12th for 2 sets of Hard and Classic Rock, and the loveable old pals of the R&F SHOW.

This is awesome news! I live very close to this place. I will do my best to be there and finally meet some of you nuts!

"Foreign wrestling matches are a lot like foreign films; no one really understands 'em, but they don't want strangers to think they're stupid, so they rave about them and turn their noses up at anyone who says otherwise."

[Gmann]

Wicked Monk is a good place. I had alot of friends whose bands play there...


Maybe I'll stop by.......

[The Blowhard]

I'm in. I'm looking forward to meeting so many of my mutant friends, especially Platinum DeBarge, Frank Black, NYCHardcoremike and so many others.
This is a great pub, the ambiance is very gothic looking with gargoyles, crucifixes and some really creepy things from Ireland. The half price drink specials ain't too shabby either. I also know for a fact that some "very special guests" will be hanging out that night, so be there and bring your Moms!

[Mike Teacher]

Sweetness.

I used to go to the Wicked Monk all the time when I lived in Bay Ridge. It's a great place. I wish I could be there.

Do me a favor, before the show, go to Fitzpatricks on 3rd Ave and have one of their bacon cheeseburgers for me. Then go to the show and hoist a Guinness in my name. If you spill a little, you can always mop it up with your free Guinness bar towel.

And that's right. Heckler will actually be at this show. Worth the price of admission right there!

Call them and ask for the promotional rate, which is around 140 a night. Tell them that you plan on being a regular there, that you have business in Brooklyn and that you will be back. In other words, schmooze them. If not, find a few friends and have a party. I know Jersey Rich wants you. BAD.

We've got a gig this Saturday? How come no one told me?

It will be a blast playing in Brooklyn, though, and I hope I get to see some familiar faces. It was a pleasant surprise having a bunch of you maniacs showing up at our last gig, and it's much appreciated.

And just for the record Mr. Staples, I sit out the Pink Floyd songs. I wouldn't sully my guitar with those foul strains.

Memo to Staples: R train to 86th Street. You'll be on 86th and 4th Avenue. Just walk up to 84th and 5th Avenue.
OR: Belt Parkway to 4th Avenue(under the Verazzano Bridge), proceed to 84th and 5th.
BQE: get off at 86th Street exit, turn right at light until you hit 5th Avenue, make a right.
There's plenty of parking, great pizza a block away and drinks are half price. Oh yeah, tons of chicks too. Hope to see you there, I'm bringing my paintball gun.

who the hell said you could use my name you bums if you come to Bay Ridge you better bring me some bourbon, a carton of Camels and I want someone to massage my feet with lotion. is ron and fed coming? this is a nice section we don't want any of those people you know what I'm talking about this is a nice section and we have none of those people here ok? I expect free highballs all night and I don't want any of that reefer boo music okay we have a nice section here okay? does this place have a nice handicapped bathroom because I have to empty my diaper after the band brings me the 20 White Castles okay? Is Fed coming? what's a crankcase anyway, it sounds like those troublemaking people I see on the subway. They call it wrap or something and I don't want any troublemakers here okay? and don't forget my milk of magnesia sometimes I have problems going and that diaper ain't big enough. Just don't bring those people who do that wrap singing it raise my blood pressure and I can't afford my prescriptions as it is so be there but I'm warning you no wrap, none of those people and somebody bring me a beach chair. And I need a big plastic cup for my phlegm I'm sickly.

Glad you understand, Mojo - and it's the honest truth. I absolutely REFUSE to play that sleepy, souless crap.

I guess I was never a big enough pot head to "get" Pink Floyd.

Thank God.

<img src=http://www.richstillwell.com/JRsig.gif>

[Mike Teacher]

Jersey Rich, thank you, and from a bass player, thats very cool, since ya know, a lot of Pink Floyd bass is well, it aint Flea.

Anyway; fine! Rip on one of my favorite bands! Maybe the guitar of Gilmour sucks major ass, beats me, I like his blues leads.

And lets assume the guitar bass and drums all suck ass. The synthesizers on the entire WYWH release, especially Welcom to the Machine, and the amazing organic synths Wright uses against the acoustic guitars on Animals, specifically 'Dogs' kicks ass. Ley Claypool [frog Brigade?] did the whole side, if not the whole album in concert. And the piano against blues wailing at the end of Great gig in the Sky? Hey I fucking love it. Sadly with Floyd, the more popular the hit, the shittier the song; gotta admit that.

Pile on!

Besides who told him about the show? I thought we kicked him out months ago? Heh.

Anyway it's gonna be a great time, hope to see much peeps there. First round is on someone other then me. That goes for every round after that as well.

Oh yeah, one more thing. Gvac likes Leo Sayer. Nuff' said.

Talk Shows on Mute by Incubus...you have an hour and a half...impress me


All the money in the world that we raise between us and them and all the animals, dogs and pigs included by any means that we can and keep going until we Breathe my last breath like a sheep being lead to slaughter and they yell Not now John, fuck all that because you wont play dark side of the moon hearing echos of someone saying, there is no dark side of the moon really, its all dark....anyway, Wish you were here, but you sir have severe brain damage and an obvious momentary lapse of reason.

guaranteed you mother f'er, that one of these days, I will sit and have a cigar get nice and comfortably numb with some Xanex, while you realize that it is the final cut and say goodbye cruel world as the band turns into a Pink floyd cover band playing all of their relics and you leave a note saying goodbye cruel world while the new band calls itself welcome the the machine, rises and you wish you can bring the boys back home but you realize that those were the happiest days of our lives but the show must go on without you and you are forced to go off to live in the Fletcher memorial hall with Mojo Pin, where you will never get out as you can't tear down the wall and wish yo had spent more time learning to fly as you wonder...is there anybody out there, but too bad there is nobody home. Too bad so sad, you may be full of sorrow with all the high hopes you had as time keeps going round and around as you think about your possible pasts

Syd Barrett, making an extremely rare appearance to hear 'Crankcase', since he went nuts for doing too much acid.

by the way MIke...did they do 'Shine on you crazy Diamond', parts 1&2....nice

The place was packed.
The guys did 4 encores, I joined them onstage to sing "Danny Boy" in my Irish tenor voice.
Mikey D stripped and did a "Bonham-like" 30 minute drum solo.
Gvac actually walked off the stage when they were doing Pink Floyd. He picked up a chick who looked about 13.
Rich got angry onstage and smashed his bass against some drunk's head. The chick was not hurt badly.
Best songs: Gvac singing Leo Sayers "When I Need You", Mikey D singing thGreek national anthem with Gyro sauce dripping down his face.(I think it was gyro sauce)
Guests included:
The Pointer, Bowzer from Sha Na Na, The Remote Producer, Dom DeLuise, The NYPD Aviation Unit, Johnny Franco, some black guy selling weed, Vincent Gardenia's son and so many others. I left early, my ears hurt. It was really a fun time. I see great things for these "Crack Case" boys!

Heckler, nice job on Danny Boy. I was suprised how emotional you were during it. There wasn't a dry eye in the house. Ecspecially Gvac, he was crying the whole time. Muttering something about a girl and some matchbox cars dipped in bosco syrup and cornstarch. I wanted nothing to do with bosco syrup after the last time so I moved away from that mess.

It was a good time though.
