Pete LaBonne coined the name, Margaret Explosion, back when we had a weekly Friday evening Bug Jar gig. That’s him on bass in the 1998 photo above. Jack Schaefer is seen on guitar with Peggi and me, the ME in Margaret Explosion. Just kidding! Pete has lifetime privileges and joins us and tonight on the Little’s grand piano. Jack has rejoined the band although both Jack and Pete are now playing different instruments.

Each gig is as different as we can make them. No set lists etc. Last week’s was more different than most. Ken, our bass player could not make it and Rick McCrea joined the band on trombone so we had three horn players. Oh yeah, and Ken Columbo sat in on piano.

Margaret Explosion tonight – Little Theater Café. Listen to “Hippie Dance” from “Live at the Village Gate”
