Fuzzy Side Up
To Us It’s Not Just A Cover Band; It’s Our Passion
By Krista Doran
Among all the cover
bands playing Top 40, Rap
and Country nowadays,
Fuzzy Side Up is sticking
to playing what they love
most, Classic Rock. And
my friends, they do it very
well!
I spoke to lead singer
and founder of the band,
Joe McFadden who told
me, “We are a classic rock
band and we like that the
most. But everyone in the
band comes from all different musical backgrounds
and we are open and listen
to all styles of music. But
Classic Rock is what we
really enjoy the best. We
like to play any type of Rock
that makes people move!”
When you go to see Fuzzy
Side Up, expect lots of
good times, laughter and
unpredictable fun! You can
always count on a good
show and Joe explained,
“We live for the music and
give it everything we’ve got.
To us, it’s not just a cover
band; it’s our passion.” All
members of the band have
been playing for more than
20 years, in a variety of
venues and bands. Joe
told me, “Although the
line-up has changed here
and there, the band has
been playing consistently
for more than 3 years now.”
Joe started the band and
kept making changes until
he found members with
talent and who were able to
work well with each other.
I asked Joe what people
can expect when they go to
see Fuzzy Side Up and he
explained, “After introducing ourselves to the venue’s
management, we set up
our sound check and we’ll
observe the crowd, and this
is how we decide on which
songs to open with. Once
we hit the stage, we get in
to our entertainment mode
and never look back…one
song in to the other, getting
the audience involved and
up dancing. On our breaks,
we go around the room and
chat with people; buy a few
of our regular supporters
a few drinks to show our
appreciation, and then it’s
back to work!”
Joe told me, “Fuzzy Side
Up is about having fun
& making sure our audience goes home with great
memories and smiles on
their faces. Everyone in
this band is grounded with
no ego, and that is one
of things I look for when
I bring someone into the
has original music.
We haven’t had the
time to really explore
what we have and sit
down to write, but we
will be doing that. We
are curious to put our
heads together to see
what we can come
up with.”

CIG (Chad I. Ginsburg – CKY) National Rock Star
With Local Roots Releases His 1st Solo Album
By Bullwinkle:
Chad Ginsburg, the lead guitarist
and backing vocalist of the West
Chester -based heavy metal band
CKY has just released his first solo
album “Rock n Roll Alibis”.
Ginsburg, better known to his
fans simply as CIG, co-founded
the nationally acclaimed band CKY
in 1998. CKY is closely linked with,
and their music was often featured
on Bam Margera’s Jackass and
Viva La Bam television series. The
band has released four successful studio albums, and toured the
world many times. Sadly, as often
happens over time with many
bands, the members decided to
take different individual career
paths. In a recent conversation with Chad, I asked him how
his solo album came to be... ”In
January 2014 after things with
CKY went south, again, I was still
very inspired and decided I would
lock myself away completely, and
wrote, recorded and produced a
brand new CiG solo album, and
I’m so very proud of it! I worked
tirelessly on this album, and can’t
wait any longer for you all to hear
it. There were no fan fundraisers, delays or long waits. Since
I produce, and make records, I
didn’t need any help - this record
is all me. I’ve written and recorded
lots and lots of amazing new
songs. The first CIG album is done!
I wanted to bring my solo album to
my fans without any BS or prelude.
I can’t wait for you all to hear the
album, and have already put a
killer band together to tour the
world starting this summer 2015
in support of “Rock n Roll Alibis”.
This is gonna be a lot of fun, especially for my long lost CKY alliance
friends. Please c heck out my new
album and I will see you on tour!”
Initially reviews by fans, and rock
critics have been overwhelmingly
positive. I myself recently wrote
the following... “I expected the
album to be r eally good, but it’s
truly amazing, it’s beyond great.
Very fresh, and it shows your hard
work and passion. You’re not
only a Rock Survivor, you’re an
amazing Rock Innovator. Bravo
Mr. Ginsburg or your solo release
“Rock n Roll Alibis”. Ginsburg
began playing guitar at the age
of nine years old, having previously played the drums. He won
his first guitar from a radio station,
and later bought an Ibanez guitar
based on Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen’s model, which he
says was eventually broken by a
friend and sold. After initially taking
lessons from a number of local
instructors, Ginsburg later studied
with Richie Kotzen. As a guitarist, Ginsburg draws inspiration
from former teacher Kotzen, Steve
Vai, Joe Satriani, Paul Gilbert and
Yngwie Malmsteen; he has also
indicated an affection for the band
Black Sabbath. Many local fans
may also remember Ginsburg from
his nationally signed Philly based
band “Rudy & Blitz” with band
members Dante Cimino, and Dave
Kloos. Chad was the producer/
engineer of “The Pipeline Radio
Show” which OOT’s own Mike Vagnoni, and I created featuring local,
national, and international talent.
The Pipeline aired on a 50,000 watt
Philly station, as well as K-Rock at
the shore. If you haven’t yet heard
the new album I highly recommend
it, and you can get it now on cd,
vinyl or digital at CIGmusic.com
or “Rock n Roll Alibis” by CiG on
Itunes or Google play.
Follow Chad on Twitter @ChadIGinsburg and Facebook CIG. Look
for Chad to bring his tour to the
Philly area later this year.

Local Musicians Donate to 9-11 Support Foundation
It’s been almost fourteen years since that dreadful day when the terrorist attacked New York City
on 9-11-2001. Lives lost, families torn apart and
ruined, a nation and world changed forever.
Unfortunately the public is unaware of the aftermath of the attacks and how it has effected the responders, survivors, and clean-up crews that were
at ground zero. Many people are still suffering from
the event on many levels.
The Feal Good Foundation – is a NY based nonprofit founded organization headed by John Feal.
He has made a full time commitment to helping
first responders and those affected by the tragedy.
Making sure the public is educated regarding those
issues. John is a 9/11 Responder that was injured,
a Kidney Donor, recipient of an Honorary Doctrine
Quinnipiac University and NYS Recipient of the
Congressional Medal of Honor for Civilians Above
& Beyond. An ancillary mission of the FGF is to educate
elected officials and private entities on the various problems, concerns and issues faced by First
Responders in their everyday duties. The FGF is
therefore dedicated to advocating for First Responder rights and illuminating, to proper authorities, the serious issues they encounter.
In order to assist these individuals the FGF may,
but is not limited to, provide financial assistance

Music is Power
I was left pondering the question, “Where is popular music
trending too? These days, instead
of having to really contemplate
what type of music and which
artists you’re going to invest your
money and time into, most people
simply go to the iTunes store or
online DJ pool and pick individual
songs without investing too much
time, energy or effort. Pandora
and iHeart Radio have taken over
as the choice of people that are
tapped in online and that seems
to be everyone. Build your own
playlist and now you are the DJ.
But how different is that from
making a mixed tape in 1990? It
seems one of the results of this,
is that experiencing music today
is a lot like ordering the sampler
at Applebees. You’re continuously
moving on to the next thing on
the plate and nothing is really any
more lasting, memorable (or palatable) than anything else. Songs
do not last that long as popular
choices and 1% is hits. Less than
that has staying power. Meaning
you as a DJ will pull it out or have
it ready to play 10 years from now.
Maybe today’s music companies
and pop artists have figured this
out and have knowingly chosen
NOT to invest in or encourage
creation and development of any
new musical styles, genres or
“sounds”. The thing is-do we really have a taste for a music genre
these days? Or do we just like the
way something sounds? Music is
loved for many reason, it creates
memories. It brings us together for
concerts as we dim the lights and
shut off all our problems as 40,000
people jump up and down and jam
to a favorite artist. Music is power
and does that. Get in your car
and tap in to your favorite sound
and make that ride so much more
fun and exciting listening to your
favorite track, you know the one
you have memories of from last
weekend or ten years from now.
All of us have memories based
on music and it makes us feel a
certain way, powerful right? How
many times have you said “OMG
I know where I was the first time
I heard the Journey song” That
is why I love this business. When
I DJ concerts I love to watch the
crowd when the main act goes
on and just watch them zone to
the vibe of the room. Conversely,
among today’s popular music, I
see very few artists attempting to
break new ground and very little
music that comes anywhere close
to being “revolutionary” the way it
was during the 70s, 80s, and other
Page 15
DJed that event. It was a creative
open minded mob scene to put it
lightly and I Loved it

creative? Honestly, DJ’s and I have
talked about this. What I’m leaning towards I guess, is that as I
scan the contemporary pop music

a single movement taking place.

was going on when I was growing

Walking into “Dagwood’s Pub”
through the front door, I couldn’t help this foodie review visit to “Dagwood’s
Pub”
I had 2 very lovely servers waitto notice all of the framed annual

were “Mary Kate” & “Krissi” (“Eddie’s”

seating, then as I walked towards
the rear, it turn into a relaxing dining
fireplace facility with both high top &
dining table seating, not to mention
the interesting spiral steps leading to
the 2nd floor. I just loved how they
were playing chill music, but, I was
still able to view the many flat screen
televisions placed strategically around
the dining area. As I was taking in the
“Dagwood’s Pub” vibe, I noticed the
variety of black & white framed family
good hearty bowl of warm soup. So,
first up for me was a few samplings
of the “Dagwood’s Pub” homemade
soup offerings. The “She Crab” soup
just freakin blew me away with its
creamy base & how it’s loaded with
chunks of fresh crab. I also couldn’t
pass up a chance to try the “Shrimp
Bisque with Crème Fraiche” soup,
as it was smooth to the rich taste of
fresh shrimp & then topped off with a
jumbo Bubba Gump. All I can say is,
“WoW, what a fabulous way to start
my meal off on this cool & windy evening, totally super yummmy”. What a
great touch by serving the soups up
with a special sea shell shaped soup
spoon, I was so fascinated with this
utensil, that I almost borrowed it for a
few years.
Taking my taste buds to all new
heights was next on my mind as I
was about to tackle a huge appetizer
dish of “Clams Bonneville” & “Baked
Oysters”. The “Clams Bonneville”
were freakin awesome as they were
perfectly seasoned & baked in a garlic
herb butter sauce. And the “Baked
Oysters” came out in an Oyster
Rockefeller style as they were topped
off with a crabmeat hollandaise
sauce. Both of which had me wanting
more, but, I knew I had a long journey
of more food to come. If you are a
lover of seafood, you gotta swing
by “Dagwood’s Pub” for sum ocean
fresh goodies as this place is very well
known for their hearty King Neptune
sized seafood menu.
Hitting my table next was this spectacular large square shaped dish of
extraordinarily smelling foodie choices
of “Rib Eye Steak”, “Homemade Crab
Cake”, “Jumbo Colossal Shrimp” &
“Chicken Breast”. This big man kinda
loves his beef, so, the “Rib Eye Steak”
perfectly seasoned & cooked medium
liking, was a taste of heaven on a bed
of homemade mash potatoes with
sliced mushrooms gravy. What can
I say about the “Homemade Crab
Cake”, but, awesome & I enjoyed
how the cake held together as it
was packed with fresh crab. Only
“Momma G” could come up with a
breathtaking & glorious Crab Cake
like this. “Dagwood’s Pub” must have
the local seafood connection on lock
down, cause these “Jumbo Colossal
Shrimp” were ridiculous in size with a

crisp ocean fresh snap, just the way I
like them. The “Chicken Breast” were
cut down, seasoned, coated and
fried up to a delectable refinement of
protein. I utterly enjoyed this flavorful
buffet of foodie goodness. It gave me
a wide selection of taste & flavors that
the “Dagwood’s Pub” offers to all of
its customers every day of the week.
“The Dagwood” sandwich is a must
try, with a large fresh roll cut in half,
loaded with turkey, ham, roast beef,
American cheese, provolone cheese,
lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, salt,
pepper & oregano. To finish off this
madness, the “Dagwood’s Pub” also
throws in sum potato chips & dill pickles. Even my good friend “Dagwood
Bumstead” (an old skool comic book
character) would be proud of this
meaty culinary hero of a hoagie.
Here are just a few spectacular
weekly specials that you should defiantly take advantage of over @ “Dagwood’s Pub”, such as the “Clammy
Hour” from Monday to Friday with
50cent Raw Clams, $1 Raw Oysters
& $1 Colossal Shrimp. Or, every
Saturday night take advantage of the
phenomenal prime rib special for just
$15.95 with all the trimmings.
Coming up on September 14th
(Monday night) will be an “E-A-G-LE-S Tailgate Party” from 5pm to 8pm,
then the Monday Night Game with
our Philadelphia Eagles playing the
Atlanta Falcons, all for just $20 per
person, which includes all the Food
& Draft Beer (5pm to 8pm), plus LIVE
music outside.
“Pope Francis” is coming to “Dagwood’s Pub”, well he may just be here
because the weekend of September
25th, 26th & 27th will be freakin krazy
with a huge “Pope Party”. It starts off
with ½ price Merlot wine (“Pope Francis’s” favorite) @ $2.50 all weekend
long. Plus live local music, on Sept.
25th with “Catch 22”, on Sept. 26th
with “Flannel” (90’s Night) & on Sept.
27th with “DJ Sister Beth” mixing it up
from 2pm to 6pm.
“Dagwood’s Pub” now has an
awesome outside sidewalk dining
area underneath their tropical Tiki
umbrellas. Like they say here @ “Dagwood’s Pub”, “Come in, enjoy our
family friendly atmosphere, and know
that there are no strangers here, just
friends you have not met yet”.
The “Dagwood’s Pub” has a really
nice sized 2nd floor catering banquet
room with a fully stocked bar, awesome for private parties, receptions
or work gatherings. All of their food is
homemade with love, while the package prices are so very reasonably
priced. Contact my boyz “Eddie” or
“Mickey” @ 215.332.3620.
I am seriously giving “Dagwood’s
Pub” Restaurant & Catering a 10
Starz out of 10 Starz rating, cause
my experience was freakin awesome,
from the sexy atmosphere, to the very
personable servers, to the master
chefs, to the knowledgeable manager
& including the humble owner himself.
“Dagwood’s Pub” is located @
4625 Linden Avenue, Philadelphia, PA

MURRAY GETS RESPECT FROM EAGLES
AND SOON FROM FANS
By AL THOMPSON
Tim Tebow may be the
biggest football star residing currently on the Eagles
roster, but who is its
biggest and most feared
player in a Philadelphia
uniform?
DeMarco Murray by a
landslide.
Murray is the reigning
NFL rushing champion
and the main reason the
Dallas Cowboys looked
like a legitimate Super
Bowl contender in 2014.
Over the 14 years Andy
Reid coached in Philadelphia, the Eagles played
in 19 playoff games, won
10 of them, including five
NFC title games and a
Super Bowl appearance.
In his first two seasons
in Philly, new head coach
Chip Kelly went 20-13 and
made it to the playoffs
his first season as an NFL
coach.
Since 1999, Reid’s first
season as a head coach,
the Cowboys have played
in eight playoff games,
wining just two Wildcard
games, then went on to
lose both times in the next
round.
Murray apparently did
not have much faith in his
friend and teammate Tony
Romo, the injury-prone,
aging signal caller who,
when the spectacular
happened in games he’s
involved in, it usually
happened to him and the
Cowboys.
In Murray’s eyes, precedent heavily was tipped
in the Birds direction.
Murray is 27 years old
with only a few years of
elite production in him.
Why go through a
rebuilding stage with a
team that has an intrusive
owner whose can’t seem
to get out of its own way?
Murray also must have
felt a lack of respect from
a franchise he helped put
back on the map.
Enter the Eagles and
the innovative coach Chip
Kelly...Murray saw respect, a big contract and
a fresh start on the road to
a ring and a legacy.
Kelly’s offense is innovative and Murray now has
backfield mates who compliment him in a way that
the weight of the world is
not on his shoulders.
Don’t think Murray
didn’t mean every word
he said at his first press
conference as an Eagle.
“I felt that this was a
great opportunity for me
to win a Super Bowl, at
the end of the day,” he
said at the podium. “It
wasn’t about financial
security or anything like
that. Obviously, you want
something that you deserve and that’s respectful. I felt that those two
things were important to
me and I was able to accomplish that here.”
Dallas fans and teammates were in shock and many still are that DeMarco Murray
left the Cowboys for the Eagles. Photo by T.J. Engler/contrastphotography.com
So obviously he thinks the
Eagles are in better shape
for a title run that the team
he has spent his entire career with, the Cowboys...
right?
“I think the Eagles have
a great chance to win the
Super Bowl. And it’s not
easy,” said Murray, who
has a pair of Pro Bowls
and a first-team All-Pro
award under his belt. “I
know there’s a lot of work
that has to be done. It’s
easy to sit up here and
say that, but we have to
go to work.”
Judging by the tweets
and emails sent and posted by his teammates, it
was a shock and a heavy
loss to virtually every
player on the Cowboys
roster.
Immediately after the
signing, Romo sent an
email to the Dallas Morning News columnist Evan
Grant that said... “It just
happened. All the way
up until today, I was still
thinking we’d be able to
keep DeMarco. Obviously
it’s not an ideal situation. I’m losing a close
friend too, so that hurts.
We have to trust in the
process and the people
making the decisions. We
have salary cap implications and a bunch of
other things that we have
to decide. That plays a
role. Obviously the Eagles
thought as highly of him
as we did.”
It remains to be seen
how the Cowboys respond on the field as the
season approaches.
The search for DeMarco
Murray’s replacement
will go on without Darren
McFadden, signed shortly
after Murray inked his deal
with the Eagles, because
the day before Cowboys
camp opened, he was
placed on the active/
physically unable to perform list with a hamstring
injury.
And how has Murray blended in with the
other running backs (Ryan
Mathews and Darren Sproles) he will sharing the
rick with? According to
Kelly, it’s all peaches and
cream.
“I think it’s been great,”
Kelly said during OTAs. “I
think you can talk to those
guys about it and [Running Backs Coach] Duce
[Staley] in particular, it’s
how that room functions.
When you have DeMarco
in there, and at the end of
every meeting, DeMarco
gets all the running backs
together, and they share
notes and go over their
notebooks together. It’s
really intense, to be honest with you, in terms of
how they approach it.”
Right now fans are crying in Dallas and in Philly
they’re clicking their heels.
Murray’s breakout
season made the Cowboys special, made them
different. His impact on
the Eagles could be the
difference in games like
Kelly’s playoff loss to the
New Orleans Saints his
first year.
If the Eagles hoist the
Lombardi trophy this
February, remember, in
the end, it was a matter of
respect.

Incubus and Deftones deliver big in Camden
gitimate sell out.
I’m not surprised that
the show would sell
out because of the
decorated career the
band has had. Formed
in 1991, Incubus has
charted 4 number one
songs and 13 million
albums sold worldwide. Incubus has a
lot of things that make
their live show so special. They always play
their hits and sprinkle
their set with a few
cover songs. Watching their show you see
a band that calculates
every minute of their
set. Lead singer Brandon Boyd is a great

but great in all facets.

After a few issues
under my belt writing for the Out On
the Town, I feel like
I’m settling into my
niché. I have been,
and will continue to
focus on entertainment outside of the
late night bar and
band scene. Don’t
get me wrong,
that stuff is great,
and I’ve logged
my share of hours
working, playing,
and enjoying great
entertainment,
at many of the
great local venues
until two AM and
beyond. It’s just
that we live in an
entertainment rich
area, and I like getting the word out
about some of the
other great things
to do. So far I’ve
touched on summer
concert series, car
shows and all that
good stuff, local
breweries, and the
rockabilly scene.
This issue; Brews
Cruise!
The hundreds
and hundreds of
times I drive up and
down I-95 by Penn’s Landing, and looked over at The
Spirit of Philadelphia cruise
ship docked between The
Chart House Restaurant and
the Seaport Museum, and
I never checked it out until
now. It took Mrs. Beaumont,
(AKA Lisa Marie, photographer extraordinaire),
and her love for anything
WMMR’s Jacky Bam Bam
has going on, combined with
Philadelphia’s Yards Brewing Company, and an event
they described this way;
“Come aboard the Spirit of
Philadelphia and enjoy your
local Philly flavor favorites &
an open Beer Bar with Yards
Brewing Company products
all night long! Yards’ expert
staff will be on-board for
samplings and to answer
your beer-related questions.
Plus, WMMR’s Jacky Bam
Bam will be our special
guest host and keep the
boat rocking with all of your
favorite hits”. Ok, I’m in!
Now, as a matter of full
disclosure, I have to admit
I have not yet heard Jacky
Bam Bam’s show, but Lisa
is quite the fan. More on all
that later. The ship is just
cool. Just being at Penn’s
Landing is cool too. There is
parking right there, and the
staff is friendly and first rate.
We’re off to a good start!
They seat us by a window,
and hand us drink menus.
We enjoy the view, have a
beer and pretty much just
start checking out the scene.
Still not sure what all to
expect, we do some people
watching and take it all in.
Might have forgot to mention
there was a “pink” theme to
the night. Many people onboard were dressed in pink,
Page 29
Jacky BamBam
and Jacky arrived in over the
top pink to say the least! (as
I write this, I’m not sure how
many pictures will make the
paper, but if ever a picture
says a thousand words, this
is one of those times!)
Next, the chef comes
around and informs us “the
buffet is now open”. This
buffet was no joke. Ribs,
chicken, salads, veggies,
deserts, it was all you could
eat, and went on for hours,
maybe the whole cruise,
not sure. After we stuffed
our faces, Lisa and I went
slightly different directions. I
headed for the outside deck,
and Lisa headed for the DJ
booth and the dance floor.
They say opposites attract.
It was still light out, so
I got some great views of
the city skyline, the Battleship New Jersey, and the
the bridges. As we headed
south, there were some cool
old boats including a really
neat old aircraft carrier tied
up in a slip on the river. I
looked at the section of the
Navy base where boats exit
into the Delaware River. It
reminded me of one of the
opening scenes in the movie
“The Philadelphia Experience”. I asked the couple
standing next to me if they
remembered that scene.
They told me they weren’t
from here. Turns out they
were from Las Vegas, visiting
Philadelphia. Again, I found
it ironic that I’ve driven past
this ship for decades and
never checked it out, and
these people visiting from
across the country were on
it their first time in town. So
that was outside. Forgot to
mention, at dusk, the stadiums were lit up and looked
real cool from the water.
There was an old REO
Speedwagon album or
video, or something where
the singer Kevin says “the
show is over folks, the party
is starting right now”. It
was kinda like that when
I headed back inside. The
dance floor was packed,
and the place was rockin!
They were doing stuff like
“The Cupid Shuffle”, songs
from the movie “Grease”,
and all kinds of dances that
most people seemed to
know. I even saw instances
where the staff participated.
It was a party. And the life
of the party, right in the
centre of everything, pink
as pink could be, master
of ceremonies; Jacky Bam
Bam.
Here’s what I’ll say about
him; (other then I want
him at my next party), he’s
genuine. Over the years
I have met more than my
share of media and music
personalities. They’re all
people, and all different.
Many are at least a little
bit different “in character”,
then they are in other situations. Not the case with
Jacky Bam Bam. I believe
he was genuinely having a
great time, and really enjoys
events with his listeners.
He made it fun, and kept
the music rocking, and the
people dancing and having
a blast until the boat was
docked! I’m gonna make
a point to stay up past my
bedtime one of these nights
and check out his radio
show! There are a couple
more of these cruises coming up. One September
17th, and another October
15th. I strongly recommend you check them out.
Side note, not only will I
be checking out Jacky’s
radio show on MMR, there
is a case of Yards Brewing
Company Philadelphia IPA
in my fridge, so I guess the
promotions were all win/
win!

Putting the Band Back Together
© Dr Lou – A
Rightful Thing
Should Not Be
Left to Waste
Away.
What’s in
a night to
remember, it’s
really what
you’re going
out for. You
are riding in
the convertible, warm
summer winds
are blowing
all about. Sights and sounds of the night
Rush by as you carry on a simple conversation about seemingly mundane things but
somehow you don’t mind. You’re out, and
that’s really all that matters, so where to
go? How do you find out what’s up? That
really doesn’t matter as much as when
you get somewhere, you find an environment that’s got energy. Energy is what
comes out of each person through the
instruments and the music. When you sit
an walk around the stage, prior to the gig,
with the gear all set, ready to go, just waiting for “show time” you catch a shiver as
you take small note of the details; the little
parts of the gear, the wires, the way they
lay out of whack yet somehow poetically
arranged in as a mountain trail through
a pass where the feelings pass from the
mind to the strings to the instruments thru
the wires to the amps through the system
to the speakers and into the minds and
hearts of the audience. This is what goes
on and this mix of spirit and technology
come together to create an experience
that is “the band”. As we planned our trip
back to the stage at the Legendary Dobbs
for the 40th anniversary show, all of these
thoughts came together and a journey
started from the thought of bringing the
Paul Kurrey Band back to the stage for
what always may be the last time ever. A
band that began in a small place that might
be called an “incubator” for bands became
the origin of a group of individuals who
shared a love of music and could imagine
a vision of creating something musically
and visually special. The entire group of
band members had been with previous
outfits, from original bands to cover bands
to solo acts, duos, trios, and over the years
a common appreciation for the music and
performance itself came into being. The
regions of all the artists are fairly diverse,
throughout the Delaware Valley but without
the introduction of the band leader, Paul,
to Dr Lou at Dr Lou’s Place full time open
stage, there wasn’t a chance for it even
to come into being. With the introduction
of Kevin to Paul, and Paul’s subsequent
invitations of Joe from his Philadelphia
musical work, the formation of the PKB was
a fateful accident for sure. As a band the
acoustic music that Paul writes and plays
so often and has played for many Philadelphia solo venues kind of comes alive with
the creative additions of Bass, Slide Guitar,
and Dejembe drum. The persona of Paul’s
“Bob Dylan meets Springsteen” type of ad
hoc rhythm or maybe arhythm (to coin a
phrase) gets grounded in a melodic bass
line that brings his musical direction more
towards something that can support a lead
melody type of addition with the slide and it
all gets grounded in a drum that transforms
the music right before your eyes. This
band went out in the 2010-2011 time frame
and played places like Dobbs, The Tritone,
World Café Live, and places in NYC as well.
After an initial attempt to record that didn’t
pan out, probably due to the confined
nature of the studio and the inherent free
range type of style that the band had perfected for live shows but somehow couldn’t
translate into a viable recordable product,
the band members all went their own ways.
Kev went off to form another band out
of Dr Lou’s which played out and though
Kev moved on the band is still playing and
growing in the area. Joe went back to his
new studio and currently works on projects
with many artists offering creative talents
on guitar and expert studio work. Dr Lou,
already in another band, went off to pursue
growing that and was consumed with prob-
lems with Dr Lou’s Place operations after
the state closed access to the only major
highway available for almost 2 years. During this time Paul fought the worldly demon
of a terrible illness that left him thinner and
weaker physically than
maybe he ever was, but
his musical spirit did not
dim even in the slightest
as he fought back and
continued to perform
even after going through
radiation and chemotherapy. Time went on and
thought there was a brief
reunion before, the current
opportunity to bring PKB
back together a 3rd time
to bring out a potential
show to a very key time in
Philadelphia Music history.
Well the plans went in, the
boys talked it over and
everyone got on board to
head for JC Dobbs again
on August 23, 2015, for
the 40th anniversary of the
Philadelphia Music Scene.
In fact the lineup for the
day read almost like the
Paul Kurrey Benefit show
that Dr Lou and Bill O
Brien put on with the help
of Paul’s ex manger J.
The original plan was to
pick 3-4 songs that could
be called PKBs best and
hottest songs and drive
them to the wall. The boys put together a the potential of the moment find them on a
FB message group and began to collabopersonal level. We as the PKB did just that
rate. We set up a time to go to Dr Lou’s
and you will find video of this performance
studio, rehearse the songs, and take them and a small documentary about this experito Dr Lou’s Place where it all began and run ence on YouTube sometime soon. Know
through them on the stage there. Followthat the joy that happens on the stage is
ing that, the stages was set for the return
real, and the joy you can have by putting
to JC Dobbs and opening the show with
your “band back together” is an amazing
the legendary Michael Tearson kicking off
gift from life and one that should be sought
the introductions. Well even though it may out, experienced, and appreciated as one
have been a surprise to the crowd there
of life’s many pleasures. Tagadeez and see
how much energy can come out of 4 driven you on stage…Dac Out…
individuals
with one leader
playing as if this
was in fact the
last day, the
performance
was fitting as
a legendary
opener and the
crowd responded with joy and
calls for encore,
even though
this was
impossible
due to stage
scheduling.
The experience of brining
the band back
together is one
that we can
