108. THE ELVIS BROTHERS, (out of order) 12/91

Venue: Elbow Room, Chicago
Supporting Act(s): ?
In the Company of: Chris

Just in the Windy City for the weekend and discovered the EBs were playing. What a night! Two memories (hey, it's been like 18 years) were the bandmates switching instruments and also playing the Bow Wow Wow classic "I Want Candy." It was cold as hell outside but the Brothers were burning it up inside. I'm pretty sure this was in promotion of their third and last release, "Now Dig This."

107. THE ELVIS BROTHERS (out of order), 1985ish

Venue: The Lone Star, Kansas City, MO
Supporting Act(s): The Clique
In the Company of: Gregg H.

After catching our fave local cover/original band the Clique, lead guitarist/singer Don Schmidt talked us into staying for the headliner, the Elvis Brothers. We did not regret it. Furthermore, I became a fan for life of the pop/rock/rockabilly/"other" trio who to this day live and breathe on my iPod.
