Here is the first clip I’ve had time to edit from the annual Xmess Craptacular at the Make Out Room in San Francisco.
These two songs below are sung by Mark Eitzel, (formerly of American Music Club) with the band consisting of Tom Ayres and Bart Davenport on guitars, Pete Strauss on bass, Michael Urbano on drums with that mini Capelle on percussion holding down the rhythm section. These surprise numbers were definitely among the evening’s roller coaster of highs and lows and highlights for low lifes who get back on and ride again.
more videos from this annual event that benefits the San Francisco food bank and livens up a dreary holiday season will be forthcoming as time permits…stay tuned
Mark Eitzel escapes his erudite ecologian elfen escape hatch to rejoin the downtrodden denizens of the Mission District to deliver the sacred holiday rendition of Bill Wither’s Lovely Day.
He is backed by Marc & the Casuals, featuring Pete Strauss on bass, Todd Roper on drums, Tom Ayres on the guitar towards the viewers left and Bart Davenport on the guitar seen to “stage left” with musical maven Marc Capelle holding it down in the back on the keys.
This video was shot at the annual Christmas Craptacular, from whence videos arrive every so often, so stay tuned. Feel free to also visit my YouTube page http://YouTube.com/LilMikeSF
where for over 10 years I’ve deposited digitized detritus including clips from past & present Craptaculars, as well as conflagrations of questionable content that have seen well over 2 million views.
