Exclaim! Hootenanny 2008

; It was a scene out of hell . On stage The Halifax-Dartmouth Ferries peeled through their set like a well oiled sea bird . Down front were 20 , 30 , who knows , maybe a hundred , ageing teenage zombie punks . Dressed in black satin jackets , and running flick combs through their jet black duck tails , it could only be one posse , The Drinky Birds . A rougue dance squad outta the Ottawa Bytown Billionairs Hockey Club with a thirst for Keiths beer and mock violence .
The Ferries held the high ground , the stage , for 5 or 6 tunes . We was honouring ( guilty , Your Honour ) Doo Wop . It was noisy to be sure .Cacophonous , would be kind . The one hour of rehearsal was NOT ENOUGH REHEARSAL . But none of that mattered now , because the stage was set , and the rumble was on . The Drinky Birds came looking for trouble and that's exactly what they got . They stormed the stage like so many sore old men digging in the back of a pick up truck for a crowbar . Eventually they made it up . Knife - combs were produced , wrists were tied together and to the unfunkiest Beat It imaginable , white T's blossomed crimson red with blood . ( fake blood mind , something the Billionaires concocted involving creme da cassis and urine ) . The horror ; Ferry Hilliard was tossed from the stage as if he was some dude wearing a skin tight gold lame sock hop suit . Which he was . Rob Pierce and Carl Gosine tried to dance for peace but were pushed too far . Carls giant afro wig serving as a rallying point for agro . Murph took a thirty tooth comb to the generous belly . Rolly was swinging for the fences . Microphone stands swung in all directions and may have displaced a tooth or two . From the drums it was a terrible / hilarious sight .During Rock and Roll Is Here To Stay , and led by that evil little bastard elf , Blake Jacobs , all hell broke loose . There was much shoving , hurling of insults and some of the most jive turkey dancing you never wanted to see . Pure anarchy . Watch for youtube scenes that will Shock .

Well ,the Ferries played their final game of the 2008 Exclaim !Cup this afternoon and finished with a hard fought 4-4 tie vs the gd Ottawa Billionaires . Holding the lead late into the third , and like salmon returning to the very stream they were spawned out of , The Ferries concocted an 0-2-1 record in a familiar , spectacularly fashioned , collapse . Standout effort from Ryan MacDonald in nets , saving the Ferries from a possible drubbing . Still , best game of the three .
Tonight it's the Hootenanny at the Elmo and the Sha Na Na meltdown .

It is with sadness we learn of the death of Jeff Healey . Not sure if it was The Rockin' Pneumonia or the Boogie Woogie Flu , but one thing's for sure , any cat that could play like that and dig the jass music like he did is gonna be missed . Take me home .
