Note, I have updated the link to Mike’s Show, Whole Lotta Shakin. Mike’s show is now on WRUR FM (and simulcast on Ithaca’s WITH FM) Scorgies Reunion Poster by Bob Martin
The reunion is less than a week away and already we have three posters for the show. The latest is from Bob Martin and is to the left.
Bob, Simon Ribas, Pete Presstone, Gary Trainer, Del Rivers and meself will be guests on Whole Lotta Shakin with DJ Mike Murray. WLS is broadcast every Saturday between 4-6 PM on 88.5 WRUR FM (formerly on RIT’s WITR FM).

$22 ??? WTF
What time do the Stones take the stage?
-
No Cliches? New Math, OK, but Personal Effects and Presstones?
Truly a ruse at $22 clams. These are tickets, not a bailout! -
In what universe can you get the Stones for $22? Let me know and I’ll join you there. Hey, if it the Cliches were playing it would be, what, $50 a ticket?
-
For what it’s worth, I don’t have any control over ticket prices (or much of anything, for that matter), and what we’re making for the gig goes toward the production costs for the cd we made. Anything on top of that will probably go toward Scott and Tony’s travel expenses, since they both have to come in from out of town.
Oh, and the Stones are still mulling it over. My guess is they’ll go on after Personal Effects. Well, if Keith is sober enough to play.
-
I was talking about Fred and Barney.
-
Oh, in that case, we go on at 8:00.
-
What’s the stamp look like? I’ll bring my Sharpie.
-
I mulled it over with Mick and Ronnie. (Charlie will do whatever I say.) We might
play only if you can guarantee on the rider that you’ll provide the following: Limo service from ROC, Endless Grey Goose Vodka and Orange Crush, a non-stop, Alaskan Pipeline of Blasine, a new snooker table for Ronnie backstage, 1 pair of silk-lined trousers for Mick, (size 28), Plus, you gotta throw those Effects wankers off the bill. Wot you think mates? -
Wait, Simon… You guys are getting PAID???!!!
-
The stamp looks like a map of Calcutta. Or was Cab Calloway? Or a Calloway golf club? Or was it a Carraway Seed? Or Carry Fisher? What the hell, just draw ’em all on yer hand.
-
Buahahahaha @ Keef
-
Well, that’s what I was told, but I’ve been lied to so much over the years that I think it just might be a front to get us up on stage. I know I do have to work the valet parking for an hour or so when New Math is on, and when you guys play, I’ll be doing bar back stuff. Pete said he cut a sweet deal with Tom, and I just go along with whatever he tells me. He said I might even get a free drink if I don’t make any mistakes. My fingers are so crossed on that one.
-
Great looking Poster Bob! Really eye-grabbing!
And the fact that all 3 Scorgies fliers shown in it are from shows on the same date as the reunion is downright cosmic.
Are they up in store windows around town? I know there arent many record stores left but how about dry cleaners, or pet shops, HR Block, etc?
Save me one.
-
I believe I hung some up @ St. John’s home… they remember Gary and Sue fondly there…
-
I have to dryly remind these PE dishers that we played on that stage an awful lot o’ times, perhaps more than any on these threads.
So there. -
Actually, Gary & I have both played on the St. John’s Home stage a few times . . .
They LOVED it!
-
When is the Abilene Reunion?
I’m down for that…and only if Richie Z is behind the bar! -
I’ll be at Abilene at 4pm Thursday.
I’d be there earlier but the owner won’t open the door until then…even for me. I’ll take care of him later.
