Covering the “Pickle” At Mulligans

by Peter Ezekiel on Oct.04, 2009, under Concerts, Local Talent, Mulligan`s, Other

A subdued clientele are either patiently waiting or have no idea what they’re in for. Outside the moon is full and it’s soon time to howl. Beer is flowing and food consumed. The band is Bad Pickle and they prepare for sound check.

Amidst the sounds of tuning the lights are dimmed and Dan Spence – guitar, Patrick Fox – drums and Uncle Jack Smith – bass, greets the crowd with their rendition of “Black Magic Woman”. Feet begin to stomp and heads bob. At the end of the song Rob Puschelberg – vox, takes his place up front and commands our attention with his voice.
