"Aqueous" At Asbury Park, Jerseyland Review...

Forums:

So once again Hüsky & I went to the Coast for the free 'Jams On The Sand'  Thursday evening show.

This last one was "Aqueous" from Buffalo,  NY.  If you like moe. or Umphrey's McGee,  they are a similar genre of music.

There is a shot of the guitarist's  pedal collection.

We stayed outside the perimeter of the Snow fence (only service animals allowed) but that's fine;  you're still right next to the stage and closer to the Ocean.

That is not a Watermelon slice,  rather the Dog's portable Cordura water bowl.  The green bag holds a gallon of ice water and Dog kibble,  glo-sticks,  Nixon masks,  Frozen Halibut,  Silly String,  and Mascara.

Another shot of the pedal board.  Some groovy effect pedals in there.  The guitar player really sounded quite nice.  Dog and I enjoyed their music.

Nice evening,  pleasant Coastal Weather,  and Hüsky splashed,  waded and swam in the Tide Pool near the Convention Hall.  He's still scared of the Ocean.

After the show,  we stopped for a snack at the Bond Street Pub.  Those are 'Cheezy Waffle Fries'  which consist of Waffle Fries and Cheez Wiz.  We tried it.  We both prefer the ordinary Shoestring Fries,  no Wiz.

Hüsky is sitting on his usual spot at the Bench.  He is a regular there now.  Very well-behaved and social.

This coming Thursday will feature the band called "Organ Freeman"  (I think they are from Connecticut or California) so that should be Fun.

The Dawg really enjoys the Coast.  The cool wet sand is to H.I.M.  almost like inedible granular Snow.  Nice people scratch his fuzzy ears and give him small chunks of Pizza (no Omion).  He seems to liek strolling around the restaurant areas of town and taking a break from rural life.

So hope to see some of the Jerseyland Coast zoners one of these Thursdays.  I'm the fellow with the Wolf-ish looking Dawg.  Come say hello and go for a Snack post-show.

I promise we won't talk politics or other Brain-eating parasites.  Just Good Clean Fun laugh

"...You can’t help but grin when you hear that a band is named Organ Freeman. That grin turns into an all-out smile when you listen to their music, a soulful-yet-peppy blend of instrumental jazz fusion that takes no prisoners. It’s some serious toe-tapping jives, fueled by the trio hard at work: guitarist Erik Carlson,drummer Rob Humphreys and organist Trevor Steer..."

So there is a link to an article  about "Organ Freeman" band.  LA,  not Connecticut.  Not Louisiana but Los Angeles.

See you at the Coast.

I like Aqueous better than both Umphrys and moe.
