Thursday night blues Jam with Dave Sags @ The Rhumb Line to host Orville Giddings.
10/28/2010
Thane of Caudor Productions is proud to present the ineffable return of Mr. Orville Giddings to our stage this Thursday. A tough guy to catch, Mr. G. has just returned from Valhalla, where he has been immersing himself in a crash course in ebonics. Emperor of Ipswich, gootarist ne plus ultra, vocalist who can twirl his tonsils on his own steep lyrics, songster,writer and gin-terpreter of the great Armenian Songbook, And did I mention the biggest guffaw in Gloucester?? That’s him. We love this guy!
We’re callin’ in the heavy artillery in the form of Mr. Stev-ee Chagarris, drumbler along the Mohawk and sect cymbol. He’s familiar with O.G.: he won’t need the gym this week. Of course, Mr. Greg T. and myself will be there, too. A fine night to dance.
And, on Sunday, I’ll be up at Glenn’s Cool Bar and Reststop over the bridge in Npbt. Imagine that. No-one from Glou. has ever shown up…and you don’t know what you’re missing. I’ll be plucking the big sticky bass to the groovy beat with the Justin Quinn Band. I’ve had J and the boys down here many times, and everybody just loves it. So, 6 to 9 Sunday, might be Halloween time there, mebbe I’ll wear my priest shirt with the white choler.Bring your own cross and garland of garlic.

Ever Wonder What The Guts Of An Espresso Machine Look Like?
Well wonder no more.
While eating breakfast at Sugar Mag’s the service guy was pulling the machine apart. Of course your boy Joey whipped it out (the camera that is) and snapped a shot for you.
I guess there really is something to the high price tags on these machines. There are some serious parts in there behind all the polish.

Cool Find? At Least I Think So
I am new to the area and love finding cool antiques with the area I live printed on them. When I lived in Brooklyn , it was seltzer bottles. I picked this up on ebay for under 20 bucks with shipping. I don’t stroll into many antique stores so I don’t know if these are in the $2 bin. I loved finding out more about the mail order Frank E. Davis Fish Company, the man behind it and their building at 58 Central Warf. Anyone know anything more about these boxes? rare? Feel free to share here about the company. I wonder where the original hut is.

Skatewing Racks- Lobster Bait
When the bottom is activeand the tides are running, bait tends to get washed out of bait bags within lobster traps. When a bait bag is empty it only stands to reason that the trap isn’t fishing.
Skate wing racks have membranes that run through them that hold up to strong tides much longer than soft bait like herring.
Here’s a whole buttload of skatewing racks on Toby’s boat, the Jupiter II.
