All-Night Movers

All-Night Movers played at Jeff Pounds' house. Jeff made crawfish etouffée.

All-Night Movers played a show at Sara Essex's studio. It was downtown on Carondelet Street.

All-Night Movers played El Matador with Zoom. I broke too many guitar strings.

All-Night Movers played to a crowded house at the Circle Bar. This is probably the apotheosis of my New Orleans social life, back when I had one.

All-Night Movers played at Jonathan Ferrara Gallery on Carondelet Street. It was insanely loud inside, so we took the show out to the sidewalk.

All-Night Movers played at El Matador with Mondo Topless. We went out for fried chicken after.

All-Night Movers played Circle Bar. I jumped on a patron who somehow fell asleep. Everybody said the guy was some sort of mafioso and I should expect retribution.

All-Night Movers played at Jeff Pounds' house again. It was Jeff's birthday I think.

All-Night Movers played at El Matador with Demolition Doll Rods. Dan Kroha (ex-Gories!) had a nifty "diddley-bow". I had forgotten we played on this show.

All-Night Movers played the Hi-Ho Lounge with the Bangs and Original 3. The Bangs had a song called "Dirty Knives".

Ka-Nives and All-Night Movers played at Cafe Cottage in Lafayette, Louisiana. This was our first time meeting the Ka-Nives. The club was a coffee shop but they paid us in beer (Killian's Red).

All-Night Movers played the Hi-Ho Lounge with the Ka-Nives. The Ka-Nives said New Orleans shows were stiff and nobody came. This time they were right.

Slade and I flew to New York. Starting our first and only New York tour.

All-Night Movers played 219 Flamingo with The Demands. I never heard of the club before or since.

All-Night Movers played at Lakeside Lounge. Continuing the tradition of playing on my birthday.

All-Night movers got a song on a compilation.

All-Night Movers played the Emerald Bar in St. Pete. I guess this was the last All-Night Movers gig.

Slade's Hog. Slade Nash is the drummer in All-Night Movers. He is like a drum machine that can mix drinks. Also an incredible mensch. Drummer jokes don't apply to him.

Went to Slade and Amara's wedding, and DJed the reception. The whole thing was somewhat interrupted by what you might call a flash flood.

A few words about Dexter Romweber. If you go listen today, please note how a lot of it is garage/rock/rockabilly, but a lot of it isn't.
