Saturday night I get to see my favorite band in all the world - SUNDAYS OFF. They are playing in Ossian, Indiana around 7:30 pm, at the Ossian Days festival. Just go to main street and listen for the music.This is an old picture - I think they were sophomores in high school. Me boy Isaac is on the left flingin' his long hair (which you know is shorter now if you've been reading). That's Graham (founder and president of the Wabash Liberation Army) on bass, and Aaron is in back on the drums. This was during their "metal" days, when they played almost all originals. And, honestly, they were quite good. That was like all they did! Now they play a much broader style of music, and are better all around - they just don't practice as much. :)
They had recently been using the name "The Jefferson Hunt", but went with "Sundays Off" for the Ossian Days job because that's what most people know them by. I actually thought they were maybe done playing together (unfortunately), but they were offered a nice hunk of change to play, so... I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO IT!!!
If you're anywhere near Ossian Saturday, September 16, drop on by. I will be the balding, bespectacled, old fart with the big grin on my face. Perhaps I'll wear my "I Think Therefore I Blog" t-shirt.
Peace, friends. Revolution(ate).

Hey, the Scorchers don't practise at all anymore, and I understand they still kill.
So true. And I wish they would kill more often! (using "kill" strictly in the rockinest sense of the word).
Thanks, Darrell.
