December 27 Trainwreck @ The Mercer St “Caboose in the Clouds”

Only the bravest* of Huffbunnies dared venture into the coldest of outer boroughs (the place went by the name of Manhattan, an island named after a drink!) to step into the Gerard chambre de famille for last night’s Trainwreck.  The “Evening of Music” featured no less than:

  • everyone playing on Steve’s guitars, banjos and mandolins**, with assorted plastic baby toy percussion instruments
  • the group gathered around a campfire***
  • a good and great selection of cheeses
  • fine singing
  • a high percentage of Leadbelly songs
  • and some other songs that received the ‘dust-off’ treatment: (Across the Great Divide, Long Black Veil)

*bravest: those without any plans; **the entire evening was conceived as the quickest means of getting all of the instruments tuned; *** campfire: a wide screen TV hooked up to a laptop with the Huffbunnies song pages up.
