The Continuation of the Top Of the Park item
| 
Jun 22 17:04 UTC 2002 |
It seems like it's becoming a bit of a tradition ... someone (usually
krj if memory serves correctly) starts the TOP item in Spring Agora, and
then it gets continued into Summer Agora. Talk about the music you
listened to, the movies you watched, and the grexers you talked to,
along with anything else TOP related.

A reminder, for those of you who haven't memorized the schedule
(probably most of us, I would imagine), the TOP schedule can be found by
going to www.mlive.com/aasf and clicking on the "Top of the Park" link.

Tonight featured the Terraplanes and the Bugs Beddow Band. The house
rocked all evening!
I spotted bruin and scott, if I saw anyone else and am forgetting to
report it, forgive me. I don't usually make a habit of reporting grexer
sightings at TOP because it would keep me more busy than I'd like to be
doing that.

Silvia and I were at TOP last night, and the music was indeed great.
I'd never heard the Bugs Beddow Band before, and they really were
awesome.

Ah, TOP, the dwindling grex tradition. I think I've been at half of them so
far, and at least a few appearances are just because I want to see something.
Intermission during the Reduced Shakes Company show, for example.

The Witch Doctors were preceded onstage by Jo Serrapere and the Willie
Dunns. (That was Thursday, two nights before Terraplanes & Bugs Beddow.)

Jo Serrapere gets two nights at Top of the Park this year.
Unfortunately I had to miss her night with the Willie Dunns, but
I'm going to do everything possible NOT to miss her July 2nd
date with her country/bluegrass/oldtime band Uncle Earl, which
also includes singer K.C. Groves. Uncle Earl's show at the Ark
this spring was quite good, and I'm working to twist some arms
to get some of you out for their TOP show.
-----
Sunday night's show by The Raisin Pickers (named for the Raisin River
which flows through their town, I think) was OK, but I wish they did
more old songs and fewer new ones. TOP certainly is a dwindling
Grex tradition: the only Grexers I saw were other, scg, and (briefly)
dewshine. I'm probably skipping tonight's movie, though it is
a fun one -- SHANGHAI NOON, Jackie Chan's western -- and I expect
to be there for LEGALLY BLONDE on Tuesday.

SCG is in town?
I'm going to be there shortly. It's Orange night at TOP, and everybody who's
ever seen me in it knows (and fears) what that means.

Anyway, I spotted senna, scg, other, janc, and one Grexer who I barely
recognized and couldn't come up with a name for. Oh, and also biohazar.

Buddy and I went to TOP around 9:30 in the hopes that the rain
might let up and that the movie LEGALLY BLONDE might be screened.
However, the evening had been called off. We chatted with
Eric/other a bit; he said the first band had gotten its set in
tonight, but that the second band never took the stage due to the
rain.

(that's a true shame. "Legally Blonde" was one of my favorite
movies last summer. I suppose the plus is that I didn't miss it
at TOP after all.)

I spotted other under the parking lot deck about 8 oclock, but left when it
became clear they were putting the monitors away for good. Then it rained.
Hard.

I saw a couple Grexers at TOP on Monday, but I didn't remember their names.
Otherwise, I would have said "Hello."
So...if any of you saw me there with my sister and said "Goodness, twinkie
is rude in person, as well!" please don't take offense. :)
