We played the Elbo Room Saturday night (8.25.12). One of the great rock clubs in Chicago. A very photogenic scene. They have a real-deal stage with a professional back-line. We blasted through a 40 min set, a nice mix of originals and covers, although we’re thinking fewer covers and more originals next time. The sound guy did a fabulous job. Smiles all-around. Jammer debuted a new hat, which he has decided to immediately retire… a little bit too Fat Albert. Carla’s voice was in fine form: strong, entrancing; and Tim and Rich (bass & drums) proved again they are one of the best rhythm sections in the business. Are we in the business? The never-ending city tour continues… – Jammer

Excellent!
this is a great photograph of WWSP in full glory. Well done, Karen O’Brien!
But Jimmy, Fat Albert didn’t wear a hat…I think it was Weird Harold, one of his minions, who wore the hat?

sorry Jammer it Weird Harold didn’t wear the hat, it was Rudy or Russell or one ot the other members of The Junkyard Band who I was thinking of
True Dat! I didn’t watch much Fat Albert as a child. But the hat definitely seems comic book retro… a little too big and floppy… I was gonna take it back to the store, but they don’t take returns… so I cinched it in the back… I think I’m gonna keep it. Adds to my comic book nature!
