   About Cast of Clowns

Photobucket


Believe it and Not

Cast of Clowns set up the big top on holy grounds, where they juggle songs, work live with wild jams, and perform high in the air. A converging of talents immersed in reverent irreverence, the Cast of Clowns fun machine consists of psychedelic tricksters who helped create the jamband world as well as emerging voices of what’s to come.

Formed around new original material of short story/song writer, Craig Wright, (Redemption Center), Greg Anton, (Zero), and Robert Hunter, (Grateful Dead), the Cast features Jeff Pevar, (guitarist for Crosby Stills and Nash, Phil and Friends, Jazz is Dead and Ray Charles), as well as Melvin Seals, (famed organist of The Jerry Garcia Band), and Damian Erskine (Les McCann, Peter Erskine, Kai Eckhardt). Good friends hang out in clown alley as well. Grateful Dead’s Bill Kreutzmann played the entire show at the Clowns’ last performance at Oregon Country Fair.

The Clowns keeps new and original material center ring. Surprises thrill and delight. Edges are pushed then blurred. Mysteries are celebrated. Then the warmth of a gentle, or not-so-gentle, ballad begins to billow the circus tent.

Hello ~ thank you for being a friend of Moonwarriors. I am drumming up signatures for 14 petitions to stop the gassing of healthy, loving animals in the USA, so please visit my blog and sign them!

This video shows what can be done ~ it is not necessary to kill so many animals, nor kill them in an inhumane manner

Cat House on the Kings Cat Sanctuary ~ amazing video



Close kill shelters and start sanctuaries - click here to sign petitions

Please visit the blog and sign petitions to end the animal gas chambers. There are 14, if you could sign at least some of them that would be great  ~ Have a good weekend ~ Thank you for helping animals
~♥~

Influences span the likes of: John Prine, Chris Smither, Bob Dylan, Townes Van Zandt, Jackie Greene, Josh Ritter, Wilco, Redbird, and other singer/songwriters keeping the craft alive.

"This is the beginning of a new day.
You have been given this day to use as you will.
You can waste it or use it for good.
What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it.

When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever;
in its place is something that you have left behind
...let it be something good."

really nice to meet you all.Very tasty licks you served up on the shores of paia.I am adding a jbl d120f reconed in hemp I think to the two rock 1/12 combo and a second cab d130 extension. Then the mesa mark II can have the tone tubby extension cabs to be just dripping loud.Come back over and just hang some time if you need a place to crash. aloha-JON
if any other of the boys need a copy of the show and you cannot burn it drop me a line and Ill send them out some.
