Kick Out the Jams: A Tribute to Rob Tyner 1. Dear Grandpa 2. Funky Cowboy 3. For the Love of Ivy 4. Up The Stairs 5. It'll Getcha 6. Hot Women (Cold Beer)

Review from http://www.i94bar.com/gigreviews/mc4.html Goober & The Peas were up next and I had never even heard of them. They came out in farmer/cowboy get-ups and introduced their show with a resounding "Kick Out The Jams...Grandpa." I'm thinkin' "What the hell is this band doing here?" as they went into a number that featured yodeling. Then, suddenly, the hay started flying. Literally. Bails of it, everywhere. The band then ripped into "Funky Cowboy," a rousing song that the Hoodoo Gurus could've done. Singer Goober, and guitarist Junior are all over the stage kicking hay and rocking out. The band was high on schtick, with corncob pipes, overalls, the whole bit, but they (literally) drove the crowd into a frenzy, especially the folks who were under 45, but even the older folks too. They didn't let up. The Gun Club's "For The Love Of Ivy" got a desperate treatment, not to mention being yet another total shock in a span of 15 minutes. The crowd wouldn't let them leave and they finished it with their anthem, "Hot Women & Cold Beer." It was a real eye opener! They ain't Detroit Rock, per se, but they rock out, and have really catchy songs. Just about everyone dug them, except Colonel Galaxy. More on that below. At this point it's time for the legends of Detroit Rock (obviously The Rationals fit that bill, but Morgan was involved in running the event and so they played earlier). Scot Richardson of the SRC came out, introduced by Colonel Galaxy, self-proclaimed mastermind behind Dark Carnival. He was outraged that so much time was wasted on bands "that aren't the real stuff." The guy was outraged and he wanted the crowd to share in his rage. Unfortunately he was drowned out by a chant of "We love Goober...Yeah!" from a girl in the front. I'd say she had the majority of the crowd on her side.
