Gary and CC, I was hoping that Martells was just getting ahead of themselves in posting the show before the details were finalized. The thing that has me puzzled is that the shows were listed for at least a week, maybe a little more, before they were pulled. It would be a shame if there was no Martells show. They're always a lot of fun.

Gary.........Yeah, I saw it awhile back also. We might be just jumping the gun a bit. Entertainment for Bar A on August 24th with Mike Francesa hasn't been listed as well. Miss O will be reminding us that the contractual agreement isn't in place yet.

Just noticed that Southside is no longer listed as performing at Martells in August on Martell's calendar of events. Does anyone know if the Jukes shows there are cancelled? Sorry if this was discussed below. I looked but did not see any info on this.

Interesting story in the Star-Ledger today regarding the master tape of the E Street Band's 1978 show at the Agora in Cleveland, including information regarding video footage from Southside's show at that venue on 8/30/78, including E Street Band guest spots.

You might want to visit AC or the Poor Fools show in Selbyville, Delaware on the Sixth of July.

Sweat sock pimp, you are correct with your interpretation of will call. you will pick up the tickets at the venue. generally you will need to present identification drivers license or credit card which made the purchase. Hope you enjoy the show. I am jealous as i need to work. You may want to spend the day of thwe show at monmouth park race track. if you enjoy horse racing and gambling that is. the track is beautiful and they have a picnic area where you can bring in beer and grills (charcoal no gas). It is a fun afternoon and only about 5 miles from the stone pony. post time for the races is 1pm.

Hello Fellow-Jukians,

Just ordered my SP-tickets for July 3rd. Because I ordered it on the mighty mighty internet and being from Holland, they won't send tickets.
They will be available on 'will call', a term which doesn't ring me a bell....
Do I understand it right if I think that the tickets will be held back for me and that I can pick them up on the day of the show?
I'm looking forward to visit The Garden State for the first time in my life. We will arrive in NY on June the 29th, will visit an Aerosmith-concert on the first of July and drive south to Asbury Park on the 2nd.
The day after the SP-show we will continue our journey to Philadelphia, Washington DC and the Niagara Falls and then return to NY to fly back on the 18th. Any other 'must sees' in the described 'travel-triangle' are very much appreciated! Hope to see many of you...Celtic Chef, will you be there? I can't bring you a frikadel, but we surely can talk about one....

Really nice finish to our three-day Poor Fools road trip! Tommy Byrnes was so incredible that his guitar was practically on fire all night long. Neal Pawley brought down the house once again with Can’t Let Go and his trombone solos, especially during I Don’t Want To Go Home. John Conte rocked the place on Ain’t No Free and I’ll Be Your Baby Tonight. One of the highlights for me is Jeff taking the lead on The Mighty Quinn (Quinn the Eskimo). I just don’t even know how to describe how much fun it is when the band all joins in the chorus! I hope this song makes its way into the set list often ‘cause I love it! My other favorite is Beneath Still Waters which Southside sings so beautifully and from his heart. I can easily hear the Poor Fools version on a country radio station. One of the greatest things about these shows is that you can really, really hear Southside’s voice because the shows are “quieter” that the Asbury Jukes shows. But make no mistake. Some of the Jukes songs, although interpreted a little bit differently, are pretty rockin’ even with just the trombone (Neal takes care of that!). Always looking forward to the next show – whether it’s the Asbury Jukes or the Poor Fools! Thanks to Southside and the Poor Fools, and Joe Prinzo too!

As Linda T said the last two venues have been beautiful, the shows fun, and the driving adventurous. I followed my GPS last night and wound up on a dirt road climbing up a mountain in pitch blackness. I was comforted by the fact that in my earlier outlet shopping spree I had bought a shopping bag full of "imperfect" Lindt chocolate so worst case scenario I could stop, look at the stars, eat chocolate and play my iPod until morning. Not so bad.

Beautiful venue with high ceilings and church-like windows as a backdrop for the stage. Another enthusiastic audience and a wonderful music journey with the band. We really enjoyed the scenic ride around the White Mountains to get to the show but after the show, it was dark and winding and a bit scary. Happy to have not seen a moose at that hour! Today, we're heading to the Iron Horse in Northampton MA to round out our road trip! It's been a blast hanging with Tasha and the shows have been really great! I can't say it enough ---- get out to a Poor Fools show! You'll love it!

Last night’s show was great! The venue is really cool. The audience appreciation and enthusiasm was wonderful to experience! The band got a standing ovation just before the encores and the crowd stood and/or danced along till the end of the show! If you haven’t seen the Poor Fools yet, get out and see them! The shows are so much fun – everyone takes turns singing and playing the instruments. Southside played drums! Looking forward to Brownfield, Maine tonight!

You've awaken the monster! And Southside speaketh thus:

"Man o man, you guys are the greatest. What a bunch of fab soul songs. Some of them even an old soul dog like me ain't never heard. And many many I never thought of. Now I have ANOTHER project to work on. Thanks.
A new jive will appear if I ever get inspired again, what with all this rain. My roses like it, but me...no.
Thanks again for all the suggestions. I knew you'd come thru."

The soul thread reminds me...while driving up from Florida a few years ago I was listening to one of those great small town Carolina beach music AM stations. A song came on with an opening horn riff and my first thought was, "this would be a great Jukes cover." "Don't Pull Your Love" by Hamilton Joe Frank & Reynolds.

While I'm at it: "Love is Alright"...the original vocal version of a song that became a huge hit as an instrumental: "The Horse."

Another one the boys might have some fun with...Jimmy Soul's "If You Wanna Be Happy."

The Jukes did an absolutely killer version of "Love Train" with La Bamba on vocals a few years ago at BB's. They did what the Allman Brothers did with so many old blues songs: they made it their own.

with all these soul song suggestions there are to many for a cd. so how about this one. southside to perform a show consisting only of soul music. a one off show that could even be for a chosen charity to make it specificly a "one time only" show. any thoughts on this idea ???
