Well then,
This one was a ton of fun to put together. I like doing theme shows, they're actually a ton of fun. This one was centered around, and featured the Bo Diddley beat, and how it's basic structure has influenced music for 5 decades now. It's one of those beats that is absolutely essential to a band to learn how to play live and make work. It's a beat so basic, and so great when it's done live, the baddest ass, coolest people in the room will get up and dance.

Peace out,
