Hello Y'all,
At 300lbs I don't usually dance all that often in public. Let's face it, no one wants to see that. But, I do love songs that can make you move. I love listening to them, I love drumming to them and most of all I love playing them so others can enjoy them. Whether someone is just listening or throwing themselves around the floor (with or without a partner or partners) lost in that ecstatic joy that dancing can cause it is obvious nothing is better than music with a beat. What is most exciting is that dance music is certainly not confined to any one genre. I have found music to move the body or shake the Soul in every stack of records I have ever gone through. The thing people need to remember is that you don't need to know the song playing to dance to it. Being the father of a seven year old you get to see how anything (sometimes not even music) can cause spontaneous gyrations. In that moment mind, body and soul are one and people usually look their happiest and most free. With that said, I am filling the boxes with music to move the body, the mind, the soul and hopefully bend a few elbows. As is always the case if you have a wrist band from the Pier Sessions there are drink specials to be had all night long. Come on by, drink some booze, pretend like you care what the person next to you is sayin' and if the mood hits - take to the dance floor and break yer back baby! If your driving don't drink, if you are drinking don't drive... if you are walking drink until you fall down. And please be kind and tip The Hunter (or he will shot you and show us proper gutting techniques).
- pat.

For the month of September I will be collecting goods for the Hoboken Shelter at all of the pier events. If every person brings just one item it will make all the difference in the world.
