YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Here's the high strung lowdown
of the goings on hoe-down
THE END OF AN ERA
It's with great sadness we bid adieu to an old drinkin' buddy.
Yes,
Kent's Northside Lounge has so much character, it's like an ol' fishin'
pal passed away. It's true. Kent's is closing its doors for the last
time. In
honor of the occasion, the Sauce Boss and The Ingredients, will
cook one last
time at the oldest lounge in Tallahassee.
KENT'S LOUNGE -- NOVEMBER 19 & 20
10:00 PM TO 4:00 AM BYOB
Our drummer, Mitch Sanchez, made his specialty - MITCH'S FAMOUS STUFFED
SHRIMP--for dinner the other night. Boy, it was gooood!
1 lb. shrimp
2 cups bread crumbs
1 lb. crab meat
2 eggs
4 cloves garlic minced
couple sprigs
parsley ½ cup Chablis
1 cup water
Sliced bacon (cut into 1/4 ths)
Paprika
De-vein and butterfly shrimp (on the belly). Mix remaining ingredients.
Put a
good-sized quonk of stuffing on top of each shrimp, contouring it to
the shape
of the shrimp. Wrap a i/4 slice of bacon around each stuffed
shrimp, so the
ends just meet underneath. Place shrimp on buttered sheet
pan. Daub the top
with butter. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake for 15 minutes
at 350 degrees.

PEOPLE ALWAYS ASK ME, "WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR ENERGY? How do you do this
all the
time?" When I look back, I realize it's been a lot of work.
After a while, the
gigs seem to run together, and the blur of drive, set
up, play, tear down, and
drive, becomes one long gig. But, there are the
gigs that really wake a
musician up. Put a little blip on the screen, a
little bump on the pizzazz
chart. At these gigs, everybody understands
why they have come to this place.
This is where we get the energy. It's
from ALL Y'ALL!
THE 2nd FLORIDA FIERY FOOD FESTIVAL IN TAMPA WAS A HOOT. There's no
better
audience in the whole world, than a great big ol' bunch of half lit
chileheads.
Child, please! Careful with that ax, Eugene. Somebody boil
water, and while
yer at it, call 911… I haven't seen such dancin' since
we played in Lafayette,
Louisiana! My chef hat is off to Dave DeWitt for
a spectacular time. Thank
you, oh head honcho of habanero! We are not
worthy.
AFTER FRYING OURSELVES WITH PEPPERS, WE HEADED HOME FOR THE RAILROAD
SQUARE FALL
FEVER, a festival of arts, and music, and style, and vibes.
Railroad Square is
like the SOHO of Tallahassee. The fest included a
parade, an open house tour of
studios, a sculpture iron pour (5,000
degrees of liquid metal), and an equally
hot concert featuring Canned Heat
cookin' with the Sauce Boss! ALL FOR FREE!
On a picture perfect day, we
opened for Canned Heat. Remember those guys? I'm
afraid we made 'em work
for a livin'. "Hard act to follow," " What a slide
player!" "Monster B3," "Where did you get that bass player?"-- a few of the
comments from the
Heat. But the Heat was hot. They made my day when they
invited me to the
stage for the final jam out. "Terminal Boogie" is all I got
to say! What
a crowd pleaser. Thanks to Nan Boynton of Railroad Square and
Canned Heat
for a day I'll never forget.
