It was our first night at PSEUDO and it all work out well so far.  We got in there and started playing.  Deadstein operates like a M*A*S*H unit and we are on our way.  Actually a lot of it had to do with the hard work of Larry who was kind enough to go in early and drag a lot of our stuff up there.

It's a new era for Deadstein as we may have found a home for a little while.  The move went pretty smooth as a first step. Scott is borrowing a small portion of the Carpetsteen kit but he also had to go to his storage locker to get additional hardware.  Dave got a new timbale set with cow bell and cymbal and will probably have a new complete set by next week.  Yet his existing little thing quite effective.  We have the old classic sounds of Kevin and Rich.  Tom is singing out of some mic he stole from his high school auditorium in 1978 and us three guitarists are working on new sounds through effects, pickups, etc.  There were plenty of weird sounds being played.  The PA system was delivered but the AC cord to the mixer was no where to be found so Peter was quick minded and routed everything into his own board and we were on our way.  Andy, don't forget to look around for the mixer's power adapter and bring it with you.

Tefillin Ken was the first official guest but others were there.  Peter of course even though he left early and let us play.  Victor who was there set a few things up was there to let us out.  It like a Denis / Riley thing going on.  So they were there and guests for now, but as time goes on, I assume we won't mention them again as being guests.  Bill Black from JABA Communications, Ltd, on the 4th floor hung out for most of the first set and smoked many a cigarette and seemed to enjoyed us.  Then at the end of the night three people wandered in and out.  It was a little weird.

The sound at the beginning was terrible, just a big mud ball.  A little distressing.  I was battling my behemoth Fender Terrible Twin all night.  That thing really sucks,   I think its the 4 speakers and the closed cabinet more so than the amp.  Any way me and the room seemed to settle into the more comfortable level by the end of the night.  Andy had his new Digitech wammy thing but at least he has his 65 Twin.  Larry also had his his Twin.

The night was filled with standard overly big muddy Deadstein which I was probably a big part of.  Just wait till Dave gets in there for real.   Playing was cool, Cassidy was smooth and the Dew was moving.  Tommy B spilling his guts.

Till next Thursday, hopefully in Pseudo

That mic is an oldy but a goody! I thought most of the night was right on the $$ and was one of our best jams ever except for ISTS which should be retired. I hope that Joel from cyber-land liked the Cassidy we pulled out for him. Everybody had on their Sunday-goin-to-Skoppy-vibe and I enjoyed it very much. I am not sure if we need more guests, but we need more fans!

Well, Deadstein has done it. We've taken the big plunge into the next epoch in our never ending quest for Freak. It sounds trivial, but is not easy to put the massive Deadstein SPOC inertia into motion. There was, and continues to be controversy as to the wisdom of our exposure to the world. Some say isolation and comfort are necessary for us, in order to continue our pursuit of Freak without distraction. But 'the deed is the main thing' and only through concrete, physical performance can we truly find the Freak we crave. With the tools of Kindness, Comedy, Friendship and Music we will be redeemed and the Freak will be revealed to us. Deadstein now!!

Eventhough it's Dave's birthday we are going to have a request to do a Beat It on Down the Line and I want to take my typical poll to see how many beats each and everyone wants to start the song with.

P.S. Andy did you look for that power adapter for the mixer?

no beats - we should just launch right into the song!

I am so looking forward to this jam. Going through withdrawals....I called Ray at Carroll's, told him about this next phase in Deadstein's genesis, and he wishes us well, and told us it was a pleasure working with us all. I will have the next round of the Deadstein vine with me - Scotty asked for 6/7/77 - a tremendous Terrapin>AM Dew in set 2!

I say that 5 beats before the Beat It on Down the Line is appropriate.
