rayfallon Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 This has to be a great show - just the Crusaders Sr. are worth the price of admission any day of the week... St. Ritas has been turning people on for the past couple years - St. Kevin's were fan faves last year - Mass Brass are world class - the hits just keep on coming.

rayfallon Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Great Day at Florian Hall - as much as I was able to be there for. Holy Crap - the last time there was that much grey hair in one room, a new Pope was elected. We really have gotten old. General comments: Mass Brass is for real; Ruben still plays the plating off a horn; One needs to be deeply intoxicated to appreciate Cupcakes' verve and savoir faire - unfortunately I quit drinking decades ago - still sounded like vintage Cakes to me; the roughest part for me personally - sometimes I forget how much of ourselves we weave into our involvement in this activity. Between the time Boston began playing Giant and the time they finished Conquest I think I had cried more than all the 16 year old girls who ever watched Romeo and Juliet the movie back in 1968 or so. That's another group of people that I am fortunate to say, have woven themselves into my DNA - they are deeply a part of my life, for which I am eternally grateful, or at least until next month or so. Not even Eternity is what it used to be. What an activity. How about the contra player from Pembroke? The boy can flat out play. I have to go practice now - Bridgeport is coming in only a month. There's too many serious players around to take any of this for granted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
