because of contract reasons,
have to go where the
management orders them. This
is not the first time a "double
gig" has loomed up before Wet
Willie i.e. the infamous
Twelfth (late screwup last fall.
I have been exposed to a
couple of Management courses
myself in the dank past and I
seem to remember some
reference to "business ethics"
in one ....
A fine Athens group,
Labyrinth, replaced Wet Willie
and after a lethargic set of
“jazz" by Jazz Creed, lit off an
hour of mellow rock and easy
electric ballad music Saturday
afternoon as the Bacchanalian
scenery at Legion Pool began
in earnest. (Friday's events had
been largely forgettable.)
Labyrinth’s combination of
piano, flute, guitars, harmonies
and percussion provided a nice
ambience to the Legion Field
area as the goodtimers took
advantage of the free food, free
pool, and mercy of Fender,
free music. Again. Labyrinth
has some of the best original
material around for a youthful
group like this and they offer it
with no nonsense and in
earnest.
I he quintessential rock act
of J. T.’s would have been hard
pressed to follow a set like
Labyrinth’s on Saturday
afternoon, judging from their
delivery and energy. This band,
unlike some we know, has a
bright future if they keep
developing at their recent rate.
Smoke Rise, the following
group, began laying some
ponderous bubblegum on
everyone and we left for a
breather. Melton A Laughing
Disas t e r/ B roken Home
provided a rousing warmup
before Goose Creek, the night’s
headliner. By dark the Legion
area looked like Little Byron
or something - and that’s no
exaggeration replete with
dogs, blankets and a variety of
refreshments. # And brother,
they were ready to r-o-c-k,
which is rare enough at local
gigs
Although Goose Creek
could have left off all of their
sexist banter between songs,
the music they offered was
pure, have-a-good time
humping country-rock. Their
tight renditions of “Orange
...
Blossom Special,” square dance
tunes, and original songs such
as “Kush On Love" had the
crowd on their feet quickly.
The sound in the natural arena
was crystal-clear and (loose
Creek's fiddle/guitar/key
boards/sax trails reared their
truck stop music to delightful
carefree level.
The reelings went on and
at 10:40, just as everyone was
at a riotous pitch, the stage was
quiet. Goose Creek stopped
without much explanation,
leaving a couple thousand
angry, puzzled fans.
Sunday afternoon, Jerry
Chmiclewski of the University
Union explained that Goose
Creek had fulfilled their
contract by 10:30 but wanted
to play longer in light of the
delerious audience response. It
seems that the campus police
office had received a furor of
complaints Friday and
Saturday nights from the
immediate neighborhood.
Chmelcwski explained that
at 10:30 when (loose Creek
finished their set, a security
officer "suggested” the band
cease and “rather than
endanger future concerts at
Legion Field” the Union
people in charge and the
band were forced to concur.
From the announcer's tone of
voice, the group was less than
happy with this and would
have gladly played on.
Chmiclewski went on to say
that Dean of Student Affairs
