Oregon State Fair Chair Lift
They really thought it would work to put half the band on the people mover chair lift thing that goes all the way across the state fairgrounds in Salem. It was insane. Truly insane- the band, spread out in twos over five cars - was spread out over seventy-five feet - the kiss of death for good timekeeping. Somehow, mostly by sight, it stayed together. I couldn't say no to Tia, the presenter who'd booked us - I'm a sucker for a firecracker in a cowgirl hat (not to mention a crazy scheme.) We got to rode over the whole state fairgrounds playing samba in the air. The country bands below us were NOT stoked, especially the bozos who, upon starting "Margaritaville," we drowned out intentionally. The latinos working the kitchens knew what was up and gave us big ups from below!
