  • Jams and Jokes –The Spin Doctors 'Rock the Dock' Spin Doctors
    Jams and jokes –The Spin Doctors ‘Rock the Dock' Posted by TBN Editor On 08/03/2017 Spin Doctors and vocalist Chris Barron perform their signature hit "Two Princes." Chesapeake Beach, MD - It will take more than a sound system glitch to thwart the band the Spin Doctors in their pursuit of entertaining an audience. The blues rock band—originally called “Trucking Company” when they were formed in New York City during the late 1980s—performed Wednesday evening, Aug. 2 at Chesapeake Beach Resort and Spa as part of that venue’s 2017 Rock the Dock series. At an early juncture of the Spin Doctors’ performance a portion of the speaker system went silent. Hardly missing a beat, lead vocalist Chris Barron told the audience a few dog and pirate jokes. Fortunately, the system was quickly repaired and the jam session resumed. The Spin Doctors' moments in the limelight have included memorable appearances on the iconic television shows Saturday Night Live and Sesame Street. Their live show at the Chesapeake Beach band shell was well-received by the audience, many of whom stormed the front of the stage when the group performed their signature hit, the Grammy-nominated “Two Princes.” In addition to Barron, the group includes bass guitarist Mark White, drummer Aaron Comess and guitarist Eric Schenkman. The “Fat Whiskey Band” opened the show for the Spin Doctors, who resume their tour, which includes performances in Virginia Beach, VA at Neptune’s Park (Aug. 15) and Aug. 19 in Raleigh NC. The intermission featured something new at Chesapeake Beach Resort and Spa, as about 20 specially made T-shirts promoting the venue’s gaming facility, were tossed to the audience.

  • 109! This Frame Positions Phish By
    This frame positions Phish by indicating where they and various other bands fall in the Rolling Stone-defined hierarchy of music and culture, while providing reference points for processing and comparing information. This frame, combined with the next and its subframes, contributes to the continual construction of a rock and roll/jamband hierarchy that clearly defines the Grateful Dead at the top of a first generation, Phish clearly at the top of a second generation, and a third generation that apparently has no single leader, but a narrow pack of contenders. Further evidence arises in the discussion of the four subframes revealed through RQ2. This frame has always been present in coverage of Phish, as it is a common tool of music criticism. In particular, the frame has evolved such that Phish was once just a peer to fellow H.O.R.D.E. tour bands, such as Blues Traveler and Spin Doctors. As Phish’s success grew and they became “America’s Biggest Jam Band,” Dave Matthews Band appears to have become the group best suited for comparison as a contemporary peer, if even a cultural match and not a musical one. Meanwhile, Phish also became a more frequent reference in coverage of other bands. Despite persistent references to the Grateful Dead, coverage of Phish evolved to the extent that the Vermont quartet became an occasional reference in coverage of seemingly Phish- like successors. Through the same sort of vocabulary that often links Phish to the Grateful Dead, one article called Umphrey’s McGee “leading contenders for Phish’s jam-smeared crown” who were “odds-on favorites in the next-Phish sweepstakes” (Fricke, 2004, p.
