724...Not Enough Cowbell

Blue Coupe, a band made up of former members of Blue Oyster Cult, The Alice Cooper Band and Teenage Head, played the Elmdale House Tavern last night in Hintonburg, Ottawa and OMG they were so good.

For those of you not familiar with the venue, it is a cozy little bar built probably a century ago and has great acoustics, atmosphere and people.

The band seemed to have played for about a minute but in reality it was the better part of two hours. They were just that much fun.

Ironically the only fault with the entire performance was there wasn't enough cowbell in their encore Don't Fear The Reaper.

The Elmdale rocks.

717...Tonight At The Elmdale Blue Coupe [BOC]

More cowbell.

Blue Coupe, which is the guts of Blue Oyster Cult, the Bouchard brothers along with Dennis Dunaway from the Alice Cooper Band are playing the bar my dad drank away my childhood in, the Elmdale House Tavern, on Wellington Street in Hintonburg, a www.stuffwhitepeoplelike.com neighbourhood.

The 'dale is next door to my fave all time restaurant, the K Fried and across from my fave all time store, the Giant Tiger [be sure to visit their expired chocolate bar section; bargains galore on expired U. S. candy bars, mmmmmmm].

I am amped to find out if they have taken the advice of Saturday Night Live and added more cowbell.

Look for me in my blue sombrero, Sharpie in hand.
