1997 shows
kendall cafe: december 21st, 1997 cambridge, ma
we played after our new friend denise hradecky that quiet, almost christmas
night. unlike us, denise has a beautiful voice and
if you haven't seen her play already, we highly recommend it. after denise's intimate
set, we played mellow versions of
stickshifts,
chopping block,
lucky,
it's finally over,
sleepless,
gi joe,
coffee cup,
she put the ex into x-mas,
imaginary love affair and
he dances.
thanks to brian and eric who joined us up on stage for a few tunes after
our set.
kendall cafe holiday party: december 17th, 1997 cambridge, ma
we unleashed our new, hot off the press (i.e. unrehearsed) christmas carol she put
the ex into x-mas and our old favorite, lucky.
there were performances by many of the other kendall regulars that night.
thank you kendall cafe (eric, mike, leanne, debbie, mike, amy, winterboy, etc..)
for another great year! did we mention that the kendall is our favorite bar in
boston?

sheep dip, kier byrnes (from 3 day threshold), and shane mclaughlin
(of naked through utah) and friends. thanks to chris' parents for having him and showing up
at this gig.

cantab: december 8th, 1997 cambridge, ma
goh played a couple of slots after the headliner, alexis shepard and her
band. the crowd was having a lot of fun with us, helping convince geoff
to let us play a third tune. we were psyched to play with such a friendly crowd
of musicians that night.
we played gi joe, chopping block and lucky.
kendall cafe: december 3rd, 1997 cambridge, ma
goh had a very rare early night... we were done by 9:00. we met a new friend,
denise hradecky, that night who was playing out for the very first time.
we played blue eyes crying in the rain
and chopping block.
kendall cafe: november 14th, 1997 cambridge, ma
a night with goh and a lot of snow. as usual, we played last.
before us was joe panzetta, two for the blues, and
willie bernstein. despite the season's first little snow storm, there was
a pretty good turnout... which was great for us. they were thinking of shutting down the
bar early in anticipation of a thin crowd. this was goh's first "real" show and we had a
blast. congratulations to all that won official
goh ice scrapers, and thanks to everyone for shaking up the place with us!
we learned that throwing shakers into the crowd might not be the best idea.
not everyone catches like an outfielder or pays attention to flying objects
while drinking. we should HAND out shakers.
we played
stickshifts and safety belts (by cake),
mr. wrong (by cracker),
g i joe,
sleepless,
it's finally over,
ac/country/dc (by ac/dc),
i don't know,
chopping block,
thoughts unsaid,
imaginary love affair, and
lucky.
kendall cafe: october 15th, 1997 cambridge, ma
this was the show without chris' voice. hi kim and dan. we played mr. wrong
and gi joe.
cantab: october 6th, 1997 cambridge, ma
we seem to always get one of the last slots of the night. beggers certainly
can't be choosers. as it turned out, we got to play 3 songs, as well as being
invited up to play with the headlining band (tiffany parks and crew) before everyone
went home for the night.
we played it's finally over, mr. wrong (by cracker), and
imaginary love affair as
part of our set. later on, we did blue eyes crying in the rain (by willie nelson),
stickshifts and safetybelts (by cake), the walkabout without lyrics (by the chilli
peppers), a michael mcdonald song, superfreak (by rick james) (yes, we really did that
song), and finally our own song, lucky. it seems as though the late night crowd tends
to have the most fun (but gets the least amount of sleep).
happy hour with goh at the four courts in dedham, ma: october 2nd, 1997
alethea got us a gig as a going away present, so, of course, we played for her. how
many going away parties can a person have? we won't complain, we got to play
and had fun hanging out with some of our new (and old) friends again.
we played
mr. wrong (by cracker),
i don't know,
it's finally over,
sleepless,
imaginary love affair,
stickshifts and safety belts (by cake),
he dances,
wrong,
g i joe,
ac/country/dc (by ac/dc),
blue eyes crying in the rain (by willie nelson),
lucky, and
don't go(h) (by the hothouse flowers).
alethea's going away party in brookline, ma: september 28th
goodbye to one of our first fans who is now one of our friends.
if you don't come back to visit, we're going over to ireland to find out why. we pretty
much played for about an hour (or two?). it was a lot of fun, despite the fact that
chris was feeling ill. as it turned out, he had salmonella. nothing can stop him!
kendall cafe: september 17th, 1997 cambridge, ma
happy birthday to eric, deb, christine and brian! we were psyched and honored to get to play
with the special guests
(pluto, laurie geltman,
merrie amsterburg and
jen trynin)
that showed up to help all the people from the kendall celebrate. we played
lucky and
imaginary love affair.
casual cup: september 11th, 1997 brookline, ma
thanks to all who stayed out late to hear us play, and to those who clapped and sang with us.
we played
stickshifts and safetybelts (by cake) and
imaginary love affair.
kendall cafe: september 3rd, 1997 cambridge, ma
what a memorable evening. jay's guitar sounded like crap...we need to get rid of that thing.
we played mr. wrong (by cracker) and
i don't know. as it turned out, it was the last gig with that guitar. it's a great
songwriting guitar, but not so good through a PA. so it's still kicking around... just with
a little lower profile.
cantab: august 25th, 1997 cambridge, ma
this was the first time we played in front of strangers as the band goh. we'd like to thank
all the other performers there, as well as geoff, the host, for making us feel comfortable and
welcome in their circle. the crowd burst into applause after the spoon solo in lucky, which
pleasantly surprised us.
we played
sleepless,
lucky, and
imaginary love affair.
we were only supposed to do 2 songs, but the crowd reaction was good enough (and our songs
were short enough) to get an encore third song!
family gathering: august 24th, 1997 andover, ma
this was a family gathering to celebrate the engagement of kris and chris. we played the following
songs
sleepless,
lucky,
waiting room,
he dances...,
i will survive,
imaginary love affair,
hotel de california,
i don't know,
back to earth,
wrong,
stickshifts and safety belts,
