2/1/2006 - Neat Neat Neat #2 at Manitoba's
Neat Neat Neat #2 was a lot of fun. In addition to our fine bar staff of Henry at the door and Kryssy pulling the taps, there was a sizable crew of rockin' folks I didn't know. And there were so many of my favorite people in the room: old friends, ex-roommates and ex-classmates, former post-college Hobokenites, co-workers past and present, my DJing mentor, a fellow Jersey music blogger, an insanely gifted jazz pianist, a kick-ass rock & roll violinist, a talented singer, and a gifted actress. If I hadn't been ruling the speakers with an iron fist, we could have had one hell of a jam session. I was humbled and honored. Neat Neat Neat #3 is a go for Wednesday, March 1, 10 p.m. at Manitoba's. That one will be my birthday party, and will almost certainly feature a guest DJ. 10:00 Reject All American - BIKINI KILL My Generation (live) - PATTI SMITH Attitude - THE MISFITS Band-Girls-Money - TSAR Heaven 2.9 - BACKYARD BABIES YeahYeahYeah - STRAWBERRY SLAUGHTERHOUSE Action - 999 Going Underground - THE JAM Another State Of Mind - SOCIAL DISTORTION Precious - PRETENDERS The Beat - ELVIS COSTELLO & THE ATTRACTIONS Your Little Hoodrat Friend - THE HOLD STEADY Let's Do It - JOAN JETT & PAUL WESTERBERG Fu Mancu - FRANK BLACK Underneath The Sky - OASIS Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt - WE ARE SCIENTISTS Natural One - FOLK IMPLOSION Life Begins At The Hop - XTC 11:00 The Good In Everyone - SLOAN Down On The Farm - THE U.K. SUBS No Regrets - DRAMARAMA Color Me Impressed - THE REPLACEMENTS Fingers In The Factories - EDITORS John, I'm Only Dancing - DAVID BOWIE The Slider - T.
