Return of Greazy Sunday
It was never about precision, but passion
Feeling
Meaning
Afro-Sheening
Left-leaning Tribe
You’d know it the second you tasted the vibe.
Fits Like a glove
Jesus
The Juice drippin’ down
“Don’t Do It”
Shot like a bullet
Killer Funk
(But Not Just) Knee Deep
Earth Man’s Blues
Dig Greg
Won’t beg for nuthin’ tonight
All Feast
Eatin’ Right
Jesus Juice drops the Dynamite!
Dujii
A song by Kool & The Gang
When Jesus on the wheels of steel
Then everything is everythang
Came back to The Cabooze 4 a hang
The Perch
Greazy Meal left FunkyTown in a lurch
Trading records 1 for 1
Street 45?
Gotta pay attention to who’ what, who’s who
And that’s no jive
Choppy transistions passing the headphones
Feeling the rattle in my bones
Latin conga bass-walk-groove
You can look around and see the people start to move
Quiero Bailar, contigo
Greazy Meal esta esperanza
Hope
Climbing up from the darkest places
Up the basement steps
Like a weight weighed down
What should’ve been
Drags the past to what I hear
And the NOW
As-Is-Ensemble from NYC
Like a glove, fit instantly
Fusion 4 Miles
A return to forever
Jesus Juice used 2 blend these beats
Funky treats
Like Modeski, Martin & Wood could
Drums, bass and keyboard trio
Delivering The Deal before the Full Meal
Dealing in Funk
No amateur junk
Rhythmic hooks
Miles-like-Evil-like jazz fusion funk
Warming the crowd until we Greaze it up
100 bucks says they’ll look back on this gig
An opportunity bigger than BIG
Michael Bellar cuttin’ funk from the edge
To open for Greazy is a HUGE “privilege”
“1st 3 were originals”
4th was their Jam-of-the-Night
Spicy T and the Bass did rumble just right
Rightly
Wish we could do this nightly
Keyboard jam
Vampin’
Voodoo Chile with a keyboard lead
Giving up the funk for the hunger
The Feed
An insane drum solo; rippin’
The body delights
Jerkin’
Bass player looks like Anthony Perkins
Stabbing that bass line like mom’s kitchen knife
A night like this will funk-up your life
Greazy Fuckin’ Meal
Dealin’
Jesus got the Feelin’
We amped up a level, more than before
More Latin grooves
What else is in store?
Then Misha said “Sigh”
Santana
Cory’s Banana
Makes me wanna have a drink
Gotcha’ panties down in-a-blink
Na Baixa Do Sapaterio?
Maria Fumaca?
Banda Black Rio, “Of Course”
Time to ride the White Horse
Feeling the heat
I want PJ to pick up THIS beat
Go from here to nowhere
Good music floating in the air
Crowd at The Cabooze is growing
Drink is flowing
FEELS GOOD
This experience to share
Not a Heatwave
Stylin’ like GQ
Disco Sunday Nights
Freaky Rock
OGMFs getting’ down
We dominate the block, but watch time tick & tock
Everyone’s ready to Beat The Clock
Take it to the stage
Moment by moment
Anticipation
Open the Cage
Waiting to Unleash the Beast
Riding this train towards a new frontier
Engine to Cabooze
Moving past the border
Set Yo’ Self free
Got nuthin’ to loose
We are ready to order
Panic at The Disco
Sabatuer
The system is ill and we need an immediate cure
STAT
JRob where you at?
This is your moment, your time shine
The fixer who toils
Stands behind
Support
Buttress the case
The one I made while in all it’s because of the sacrifice YOU
MADE
Nested like Crow with a view from above
Singing his heart out, but singing for love
Beat interrupted
Put on hold
What to do?
EXCELSIOR!!
Beat the problem
Beat resumed
They’ll ask to leave it buried,
If this day were exhumed some day down the road
But it was part of the show
The best aspects of the night
After that build-up? To stumble so epic
So loud, arresting
Mind Bending and unending
Our Greazy hearts filled up
Anticipation dripping everywhere
Dropping funky beads of perspiration
What happened there?
Didn’t matter
Stayed pro and true
Coalece
Congeal
About to see our beloved Meal
The Feeling’s true
Ain’t seen Nuthin’
‘Til you see them
Do the do
Juice’s driving Petar’s groove
Petar
Cedar
Nice being back with the boys from this hood
His stops
Starts
Just like he should
“The Wind blows
The Grass Grows
Greazy Meal goes on”
Unfaithful
Lost faith in conventional religion
My idea of G-d
Spirituality
Peace Signs Everywhere
Tossed to the crowd
Music makes my spirit sing out-loud
“Just hang onto it”
Keep ‘em in line
Drunk on Juice, right from the vine
Given Freely
Not a crime, yet stolen from another time
A place in space where we came together when
Never knew we’d be together again
The chance to call upon all our Greazy friends
Listen to the notes
The way they bend
Curve
Slide
Dancing the groove
A Pleasurable Glide
Takin’ The Highlife 4 a ride
High Notes
Tough to find
This is driving me Out-of-my-Mind
Petar’s on a runaway train
Funk in my soul
Destroying my brain
Sax of Brian
Getting’ high and
Scream and Cry and
Judah’s Lion
Straight from Zion
The Motherland
The vibe we’re getting’ from this band
Gettin’ High with the girl I met
“On the By-and-By”
Petar “tune-in”
Follow the lead
Dimi had the crowd in a frenzy to feed
Chanting his name
Packin’ the house
The reason we came
Gettin’ what we need, no reason to grouse
Bill up on stage
Apropos

Controlled in the Wild
Julius screams like a neglected child
Double-Door

Believe we are one

That’ my jam too!
Every Greazy Sunday Night
My Life through and through

Lookin’ for cues and clues
Adventurous
Old Soul Café
Hearing this cut makes my day

The song of how we came to be this way

Such a mellow groove
NGB like a memory
Wouldn’t know it without The Greaze
Cabooze
Chorus Sings
Everyone
Peace being made
Elementary Lessons
Top of the Grade
John in-control
The reckless and the wild?
Eschew
Glistening Fields of Lillies with dew
Under wraps, but full-throttle, too
Wet from the romance of making love to The Muse
Best StrawB Delilah solo EVER!
Funky Feel
Intoxicating
Libidinous
Lascivious
The Scent of Heather
Time
A little music 4 everyone
Can’t hear G’s sax intro
Lost in this oblivion of sensory assault and overload
Charles conducting the breaks
Post “Dancing In the Dark” moment with a girl
Juice like The Boss
Showing Greazy Kinship
Truly a Hoss
Taken for a rhythmic stroll
Petar on the dummer’s roll
G takes us home
Casa Roja
Blessings shared amongst us all
FunkyTown on-top again
Floating the ride
Everybody’s got something to hide
Juice lessons and Greazy Etiquette
Urban Herbalist goes on-and-on
Just won’t quit
Bordering on “Dangerous”
That was a test
And we passed
Universes Baby
“We just rehearsed and now we’re gonna play a song 4 you”
Stay
Thanks to Ken
Musical Glue
4-Leaf Clover
Less-than-luck
Charles up there
Quick snap, then duck
Paid dues well beyond A Twins’ Ransom
Passion Shared
Dancing free without a care
Davenport of Love
Introductions Made
On Sunday Nights there is no barricade
Stage to show to audience flow
Greazy fell from up above
1st chorus breaks from Harmony Supreme
Greazy manifests like one man’s dream
Couldn’t believe until I was wrapped inside
The Calm
The Eye
Papa’s wailing cry
Stay
Over
Like Crimson and Clover
Ingredients for a recipe
Greazy
You give and get the best of me
Kid C
Are you fucking kidding me?!?
The answer didn’t matter
Drum-breaks on the 1st chorus
Stumble drumble G’s solo
Felt its power like the thunder of The Crusher
The Bolo
Getting’ smashed in the face
Driven by the drums and the funky bass
Feel not present
Some to begin
Return My Heart heard over the din
Mushy love lags right from the start
Grated
Messy, but again precision’s overrated
Feeling it ONE BILLION-FOLD
Tales of Greazy Sunday left untold
Curfman Feels Good
Kid rocks with Kid Rock
Sandman’s tune
Margie’s part affirmed
Watch The Boom
The Boom
Whom?
Thunder Chorus fills the room
Could’a put “America” there
She’s all grown up
Curfman Shanon
Filling my Greazy-Loving-Cup
“Got Your Guitar?”
Rich Girl?
I Can’t Wait
Heavy Kick
Assets Affirmed
No Time Lost
Harmonies sounded BOSS
No fidelity loss
Rehearsed
Paid the Cost
Heard’em Clear over the rumble
Rhythmic stumble
Chorus Force humble
Communal Vibe
G’s solo directs the Sunday Night Tribe
Miraculous ending
Mushmouthed a truth
“Coming all the way from Spain”
Constantly in awe
Fancy Affair
Strawberrious gonna carry us
Spicy-like
Petar J
Anton on Bass
Puppet Funk
G-d Damn that ripple started waves
A seismic shift that opened the graves
Dead-bodied souls awakened by sound
Thriller-like crawl-up and out from the ground
Spicy’s BEST BOOTY
Everything spent like a sailor on shore duty
On leave
My senses
Friction-mended fences
It’s Sunday Night in MN
Are we alone?
Are we one?
Deeds left undone
Love One Another
No drop into bridge
No need
“Nothing to see here”
Moving Along
Up and Out
Scream
Shout
Scat into break
Makin’ our Crib
The Cabooze
Tremble
HouseQuake
Mother Earth whispers the wind
Breezy
When we’re here, it don’t have to be easy
Propulsive Bass
Marching soldiers
March in place
Breakdown for Elvis
Jeremy gonna be givin’ the business
Wild and misplaced
Never expected his pace
I believe in oneness
There’s no you
There’s no me
The lesson
These teachings are easy to see
“If I’m horrible, so are you”
In & Out
Curfman Chorus Harmonies
Good Times & Bad Times through
We’re Greazy Meal and So are you!
#Wisdom is true
Heavy, phat dose of Vitamin U
PJ on creative fills
1st chorus to next verse
The Ship has landed
Busted Orbit
Davenport
An invitation
Ritual
Habit
Love how they approached the vocal break
This thing’s “fixed”
She’s “A Ringer”
“On-The-Take”
Well-rehearsed
Musician Supreme
The Antidote from the Superheroes of Funk
Better than my dream
Frenzied Ending
A sermon of Cause
I Can’t Wait
The Chorus
Singin’ so sweet, so right tonight
Bellar’s face screwed by Tommy’s call
Had a ball
Rhythm and phrase
Greazy Sundays
These ballz did AMAZE
Unearthed the Funk, Man
We’ll see ya….
Again?
Amen
Can’t go back to Kansas
But we can send
you home 4 a night…..
And it did
Swept away in a tornado of sound
Greazy Meal came through with a rhythm unbound
Streaming from Crow’s Nest-to-stage
While frantically I scribble these notes on this page.
