On October 23 at Hambones, starting at 8, there will be a benefit show for Bike Pgh.
The music is by Dandelion.
Dandelion is a group of people that usually play music at a Saturday after noon acoustic jam. This show, however will not be acoustic and will be songs, not people noodling along.
Ther might be a ride from Dippy that evening staring at 6:30.
We need any volunteer help we can get. Leading the ride. At the venue for the show. Moving equipment around.
Pretty much anything you can do, we need.
This show keeps coming back after being killed a few times. It's kinda liek teh Mon-Fayette freeway in that respect.

Topping.
Friday will be mid 60's and sunny! Sunny!
I'd like to have a bike ride from Dippy (leave at 6:30) to the show.
I can't commit, because I might be schlepping equipment, trying to smooth over my bad organizational decisions, and soothe performer's egos.
Anyone wanna step up? Stu? Marko?
I expect this will be about as good as my 60th BD party was.

I'm out, unless you want a motorcycle escort, and even at that I will be late.
I really need to figure out a bicycle carrying rack for the motorcycle.

I'll pitch in to help lead a group.
See anyone interested in a slow paced ride from Dippy to Hambones leaving at 6:30 pm.
(and I hope it's better than Mick's 60th B-day, I broke a knee cap in the snow on the way home)

Thanks, Marko!
I hope you don't slip in the snow Friday night!

On a (totally) random tangent:
And it sounds like (ignoring the horribly mangled title):

To the best of my recollection, Mick et al do not play in this style... but hey, this is why it's a totally random tangent.

I'm sad to miss this--have to be at the airport at 4:30am Saturday.
:(

Well, we'll have a harmonica AND a saxophone on some tunes. Isn't that the pretty much the same as a horn section?
I mean, like, the way that the 2nd Avenue chute is pretty much the same as a protected bike lane?
