Garwood Mansion

**ruth** · June-03-09, 08:29 AM

[COLOR="Red"]Friday night meet-up!![/COLOR]

just a tiny change - the Main Street Stage is at the corner of Main and Washington. We will still meet there around 8 at the right side of the stage. We'll head over to the Circus around 9 - after Steve Booker's gig.

Rain day plans are the same - if it's raining go directly to the Circus Club - upstairs from the Millennium on First Street.

HOOVER - GET BETTER! THAT'S AN ORDER FROM ALL OF US!

**old guy** · June-03-09, 08:39 AM

That's a thought. Hoover, just wear a red shirt.

**john collier** · June-03-09, 03:25 PM

Hoover [[Stillrocken) good to see you back --do you think that incense burning and jumping with the v would

cure us of what ails us?

I still want you to go to www.collierpics.blogspot.com

It will leach it out of you

Also eat the prunes

Keep the faith,

Do you think the Garwoodians should have a secret handshake , or not? What a bout something like the

VALCON PEACE SIGN as a greeting? Maybe not?

I wish I was a good enough guitar player and singer that I could just give an uncomplicated "Yes", but here's the situation.

I can kinda play the "Garwood Anthem" and sing it, I'm a little shakey but I think I could do that. So I can say okay to that. [[I play it in open E.) [[It's just a I IV V, so anyone can play along.)

But I can't even play "Hoover is a Mover". It's an easy song. I play it in open G, you play the bass notes on the low strings, and just hit a few chords here and there, but my skill level is not quite there yet, and won't be by the reunion. Someone else would have to actually play it.

I'm open to ideas.

Or if someone else wanted to completely play and sing them I'm open to that too, because it makes me real nervous to sing in public.

**stnfrnt** · June-03-09, 03:09 PM

Rickbeall.....how about we all just get up and play together. You've given everyone the basics, and believe me brother, that's all this crew needs; and sometimes not even that much! There is some tryth behind that description saying Stonefront is one of the most prolific jam bands to come out of Detroit in the Post Viet Nam era, or some shit like that.

**stnfrnt** · June-03-09, 03:12 PM

There's also some trUth to it. I wonder what "tryth" is. I'll look it up and get back to you.

**stnfrnt** · June-03-09, 03:39 PM

TWRCH-TRYTH.....the fabulous creature from Celtic mythology. [[for real, I ain't makin' this stuff up!)

The Tryth is looking for BushMark. Says he loves a good challenge.

Attachment 1542

He's been showing this photo around Madison offering two free tickets to "Riverdance" for information as to BushMark's whereabouts. I think you're safe, OG. God, I hope so! It could get ugly if he finds you. Good luck.

Attachment 1543.

That's the old English Chaucer/Shakespeare in you coming out ... either that or the beast. Forsooth!

**stillrockin** · June-03-09, 03:48 PM

Hey Rick can I sing the part WHO HOOVER?

**RickBeall** · June-03-09, 04:01 PM

Sure man, you can sing any part you want!

**stillrockin** · June-03-09, 04:07 PM

Hey Ruth now that I'm going to be performing on the 13 do I get my $30.00 back? I will need a few things like one wireless mic and 6 helium balloon. Ruth your the best.

Hoover

**stnfrnt** · June-03-09, 04:16 PM

Hoover.......no offense, but if you're going to sing, I think YOU should be paying pay US $30 to sit and listen.

**ruth** · June-03-09, 04:19 PM

Hoover - that $30 was spent long ago! So long ago that you might have to pay again!

**Drummer21** · June-03-09, 04:42 PM

Wow! Hoover singing with the help of 6 helium balloons. Should be a sound we'll all remember for a long time.

**stillrockin** · June-03-09, 04:46 PM

Larry didn't like my idea of me singing he never was much fun.

**Gleeman** · June-03-09, 06:37 PM

hey RickB we'll do the hooversmover later in the evening

I really hope that gets taped I want to hear that Mover

Please post lots of pics so I see the whole earth clan.XXXOOO lol rr

**stnfrnt** · June-03-09, 08:35 PM

Gus.......the sculptor's name is Doug Dourghety[[sp). On the 3rd page of Collier's blog, there's a photo of him and his daughter in a 3-shot. THAT is a fantastic photo, by the way. No luck finding anyone except I think Ruth heard from Dave Livermore.

Drummer21.......don't encourage Hoover to do anything. He's a handfull all by himself. I saw his waterbed on ebay last week. It was a package deal that included the mansion front door and some hand painted mini-bongs that survived the fire.
