"Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of Fuel. Sentimental people call it Inspiration, but what they really mean is Fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio."

-Dr. Hunter S. Thompson

RANGER REPORT - March 11, 2010

Two peacocks from the farm next door have wandered into the front yard. They are shrieking every few minutes. I know what they want. I've been feeding them Cheetos recently and they've gone crazy for the stuff. But I've been forbidden from giving them any more because they jump onto the roofs of our cars and leave their waste everywhere. Not to mention the scratches in the paint job from their prehistoric talons...they sure are beautiful though...

This is to remind you that The Mighty Manatees are playing this Sat., March 13 at The Pickering Creek Inn in Phoenixville, PA www.pickeringcreekinn.com as part of the Annual Phoenixville Pub Crawl which involves all the local drinkeries and starts around noon...

And speaking of drinking...next Wed., March 17 is St. Patrick's Day and The Mighty Manatees will be playing a 5:30-9:30 Happy Hour show at The Sandtrap in Limerick, PA www.limerickgolfclub.com This will be the five-man electrical band with Jozo & K-Joe! Faith and begora!

Our steady "Tuesdays With Manatees" are going strong. Multi-instrumentalist Megan Palmer has begun coming out from Manhattan with musical partner and fellow New Yorker/multi-instrumentalist Jason Crosby. They both play violin and keyboards and have recently recorded an album together. During our set breaks they also do their own "mini-set". Come out and catch these two world-class musicians.

Next Saturday is THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING!

Jah Love,
Ranger Will
