Who can resist smitten/splooged forefathers? Actually, funny thing about this weekend was that the Friday night show was the first and only time in RJX @ BofA history that Bill Kenny (the BofA bar manager and patron saint of Truckee nightlife) gave us the thumbs down on the performance. Wasn’t harsh about it, just gave us a “eh, you can’t nail it every time” line as he was drowning us in tequila shots at the end of the night.

Needless to say, Saturday’s performance was about earning our keep at the one place that’d consistently brought out our best chops and creativity. These are a few of Saturday’s tracks, variously sliced up per Shirey’s media management whimsy-of-the-week:

• Sly and Robbie ad libbing - with DJ Mike Park on the loopy mic
• Too Many Sparks
• Where’s Walker jam > Funk Bomb
• Truckee jam
• In 3s jam
• 5/4
• Degobaah - no idea what tune this little nugget sprouted out of
