End of Drunk and Disorderly

[groomporter]

The guys have announced on the MRFfriends Elist that this will be their last season. Seth said:

(It) "is an amiable occurrence, it is simply time for us to move on and find new diversions." Drunk and Disorderly will be playing at the Renaissance Festival, but mostly it will be as a trio, with myself showing up as often as I can. This will be our last Festival season, and this email is to let you all know about our Final Gig with the whole band.

The show will be Friday, September 5th at Keegan's Pub around 9:00ish. I know, it's during the Festival season, but our guitar player is moving to Oregon, so it was this, or nothing at all. I scheduled it for a Friday so hopefully you all can still make it. Andy, Scott, John and myself will be there, along with all three of Drunk and Disorderly's various guitar players, as well as guest favorites Renee Pilon and Howard Harrison.

I had suspicions that this was happening. A few weeks ago I was in contact with Seth about performing at our wedding next summer, and it seemed like a done deal until suddenly and mysteriously he said something had come up and it wouldn't work out. 

So sad....Fest won't be the same for me without them.

MNRF will not be the same without Puke & Snot, as it has been for me without Ten Seconds of Harmony.. Where one group folds, another will come in its place. We just have to be patient.

As Groomporter pointed out in another thread Dan from Tastes like burning is not coming this year so Dane had to change his act.

its going to be a different year.

[Will Gamwell]

Drunken Uglies is no more as well.  Happened late last year I believe.  BeerBreakfast won't be the same.

On another note, The Dew Drop Jugglers have changed their name.  They are now The Danger Committee.

[groomporter]

I think the Uglies, or at least one of them has a new band however, we caught them a MacMahon's on Lake Street one Wednesday night. I don't remember their name

[Will Gamwell]

That is correct, though I am a poor friend and do not recall the new band's name.  I do believe they will all be out there performing separately.  I ran into John & Pete out at the Wisconsin Faire.  John is going solo.  Pete is in the new band.

LD & I saw them there as well. We talked to John for a while...

Oh and I guess we can add that Shannon will not be with the Dregg's atleast I would guess that she will be at home with her baby. Anyone know if she has had it yet? I think she is due like now.

Hmmm. also means she won't be with Vill Tennis...

My other favorite RF act...yes, it will be fun to see their all-new show (3 times a day from my cart at Bakery stage!) involving more knives. Should be interesting.

She hasn't had the baby yet.  Her due date is next Monday, the 18th, and will probably be induced at that point.  She does plan to be out this weekend as much as she can, and therefore plans to do VilTen as well...she has arrangements that should allow her to be out at Fest as much as she feels up to this season, and we will welcome her warmly whenever she can manage!!

Oh, yes, I did see a new band of rookies at rehearsal last Sunday.  They're all young (16!) and good looking, talented even..."All The King's Men."  I have taken to calling them "All The King's Jonas Brothers" (without malice)!

Thats cool. See ask a question and someone has the answer.

and then we converted Shane to the dark side...or well..night crew.

[Will Gamwell]

That conversion has already started, but he has shown stronger resistance than we originally thought!  It is futile, he will submit!

It's always sad to see a favorite act pass into the realms of yester year. But all good things come to an end sometimes, it's just having the patience to wait it out and see what new acts come of age. It's the same thing with favorite TV shows. When M.A.S.H. went off the air people wondered what they would do with their evenings. But eventually something came along and replaced it. All in good time, will the fruits of another's labor come and entertain us for a few more years yet again. Till they must give way to the next up and comers.
