Techstock '99: - Opening Act GNET Blasted "One After 9-0-9" from their wireless mics and instruments to their broadband dotcom set-top boxes, through their semiconductor touchpad mixing board, zipping to the Biggest Wall of Marshall Stacks, to rocking the frozen ground under your feet and your whole hokeypokey self Like waking up to a rocknrollr like GNET at Open. (SRCM, CNXT, CBS, SFA, SIGM, USAI, GE,T,
MSFT, AOL, a'la Plastic Ono Cyber-Demo 21st Century stage equipment).
The PA broadcasted a Warning Du Jour, "Watch out for the Tan Special K With Bananas, but the Strawberries are fine", before dedicating the "One After Nine-Oh-Nine" cover to Blue and Mooon. Kwinkydink, 'twas.
After that, (Or The Very Clone Of ?!) EP Himself materialized up front of the GNET band with his Memphis Backup Boys & Girls in a hullaballoo line, gave a crooked-smile and a bow preceding That "STEAMROLLER BLUES" Long Version that for a minute almost becomes like an endless GratefulDead jam. In fringes & sunglasses, throwing diamond rings off his fingers & scarves to the crowd, spiffy as Tony Bennett, bolting out of there before anyone could make a move...
Happy Elvis's Birthday From Backstage at Techride '99, Last Big (off-calendar)Fiesta of Our '98/99 Holiday Season.
AH Hahnh HUH "Good Luck Charm" on doo wops radio, gotta go...
