JLB @ Beach House Cafe 03.29.14

The Jed Luckless Band wraps up JLB March Madness with a return to the Beach House Cafe in Greenwich, CT! As usual it was a rainy night at on Sound Beach Avenue, but that didn’t keep the crowd from coming to party, and the band delivers, with a high energy show full of fun special guests.

Filling in on bass is Al Buonanno, and he does a stellar job right off the bat with with the JLB original “Still In Luv With U.” The rest of Set I delivers a mix of Grateful Dead, Beatles and Bob Dylan, along with the classic “Dancing In THe Streets” to celebrate JLB’s three year anniversary, and the Beach House Cafe’s Tenth Anniversary. The set closes with special guest Charlie Lagond on saxophone, joining in for an awesome “Eyes Of THe World” and “Not Fade Away” combo.

Second set features several Mark Gutenplan originals, including another sit-in by Charlie on “Englishtown,” paired with “I Know You Rider.” More classic rockers like “Mighty Quinn” and “After Midnight” round out the set, with Mickey Glauber and a variety of other vocalists joining in the fun.

Lots of fun tunes, special guests and great energy make this an awesome party with JLB at the Beach House! Enjoy 🙂

JLB @ The Bayou 03.28.14

JLB is back at The Bayou, as part of their 2014 March Madness tour, delivering a solid show on a rainy night with half the band feeling under the weather.

The show starts off Kenny strong, with the local favorite “Saw Mill River,” and revs up quickly on the jam front with an extended version of the Trey Anastasio tune “Alaska.” The first set features a couple Dead tunes, the peppy JLB original “Sugar Pop” and a jammy band favorite, “Sand” to take things to set break.

With K-Man’s condition worsening, the band manages to put together a hot, but short second set, opening with with a strong version of the band’s tune “Victim of the Rhythm,” followed by a nearly thrity minute stretch of rock covers, including the Dead’s “Fire On The Mountain.” The heat must’ve been too much for the bass player, since Ken unfortunately bows out before the last tune of the night.

But in true JLB style, the boys carry on, with Mark picking up the bass and closing out the night with “Dear Mr. Fantasy.” A fun show with a vibe all its own. Enjoy!

After a long, long time on the virtual road, The Jed Luckless Band finally returns to their Secondlife home stadium, August West Amphitheater on Darkstar.

The band delivers a fast paced, energetic show, with a mix of originals, covers and psychedlic jams, driven on by an amazing partcile light show in-world by Particle Tom.

First set kicks off with “Ozone Blues” (good news for a few people playing in the JLB March Madness contest!) and quickly moves into a long series that includes a nice “VOTR” and “Sand” combo, tacking on JLB’s obligatory Sand follower, “Dirt.”

Second set keeps the Phish heads bouncing, with highlights including a sweet Ocelot and Oce-jam opener and a spooky “Ghost” with jam. Grateful Dead fans are not forgotten with a smokin’ version of “Jack Straw” and a rockin’ “Deal” closer. Enjoy!

JLB @ Hotel Chelsea 03.04.14

The Jed Luckless Band celebrates Fat Tuesday in Bohemia! JLB returns once again to the historic Secondlife music venue, Hotel Chelsea, lighting it up with a night of Mardi Gras fun! A great crowd brings great energy to the show, which includes many fun tunes, a few debuts and some tasty jams.

The first set kicks off with this winter’s big hit, “The Freeze” (which was good news for those playing in the JLB March Madness contest!). The Gutenplan tune “Englishtown,” which tells the story of Mark’s first Grateful Dead show, is paired nicely here with the Dylan tune “She Belongs To Me,” a rare cover not played often by the band. The Kaufman original “Saw Mill River” runs through the middle of the set, and the new-ish JLB original “Listen To The Angels” makes it’s second appearance. A nice Phish combo wraps up the set with “Rock And Roll” into “Suzy Greenberg.”

Second Set gets the bon temps roulet with “Dancing In The Streets” paired with “Iko Iko,” a debut cover for the band. The rest of the set is original heavy, including the nostalgic “FM Rock,” the middle eastern themed “Valley Of The Saints,” and the debut of a Jed Luckless original called “By and Bye.”

The show wraps up with another Dylan tune, the crowd pleaser “Mighty Quinn.” A pleaser of a show all around, with many fun moments, lots of cool jams and a Mardi Gras vibe throughout. Enjoy!
