Cordiant Dental Private Summer Party

A private party where they asked us back for year two.  Set up in the back yard of a big house in Milford, this year with 4/5 of Free Beer (Scott, Jim, Kurt and Dewey) and Stefan Rarigh on drums.  First set ... good.  Pretty sober.  Between sets someone found out that Scott has an addiction to Dickle!  Second set the alcohol set in and all was right with the world.  Less skill, more fun!

144

03/18/06

St. Patricia's Day
Kurt's Birthday
New Way Bar

Scott and Patty baked a Stratocaster Cake for Kurt to celebrate his Birthday.  Added the Killers to our set, and the people seemed to like that a lot.  Motor Dolls were in the house, Paula sat in for a version of Sweet Leaf and the shy and demure Maggie sang some Pat Benetar (first time we've ever played the song!!)

143

02/04/06

Super Bowl XL.2
Rochester Mills Beer Company

Carbon Copy of the night before, but instead of loading in during a rainstorm, we load out during a snowstorm.  Added Britney Spears, Can't Explain, Drive My Car, You Really Got Me, Don't You Wanna Be My Girl, Foo's Times Like These to our Repertoire during the two shows

142

02/03/06

Super Bowl XL.1
Rochester Mills Beer Company

Our first time here.  Nice stage, lots of friends show up.  We get to drink all the beer we want for free, everything else is at retail.  A recipe for disaster!!  Took petitions to make the day after the Super Bowl a national Holiday.  Fought through the Beer Fog and did three pretty killer sets.

141

12/17/05

BeerMas at the New Way

The other holiday tradition with a couple new twists.  Candy Band opened up for us and were great.  A pretty electric crowd that was ready to party ... including the first performance of our new Christmas Hit, "It's The Most Wonderful Time To Drink Beer".

140

11/23/05

Beermas at The Library Pub

The tradition continued ... year 5 on the biggest party night of the year, the Night Before Thanksgiving.  It didn't disappoint either.  Line out the door at 8:30.  Sneaking people in as "Roadies" by 9:15.  Lots of people on the dance floor by 10:00.  Karl Arthur Swartz sits in on Vocals during Aerosmith Mama Kin.

139

10/30/05

The Hamlin Pub Shelby

Our first time here and also our first time to the extreme north and west suburbs.  Boy, didn't know we had so many fans out here.  The bar had some strange rules about the set times, and no on wore costumes (except Keith, Dewey and Kurt) even though we had a $50 prize for best costume (Keith won).  Did shots of vodka with a polish guy and a girl that wore Moon Boots danced with us all night long.  See the pictures!!

138

10/15/05

The Hall O Ween Party

Our annual gig ... and again a stellar showing by 2 Hour Limit followed by the annual Halloween Set from Free Beer.  Keith wore a Free Beer can as his costume, must be seen to be appreciated.  Moment of the night was when guest vocalist Kris Thomas fell into the drums taking out the end of Dancin' Days.  Thus ending her days as guest vocalist.  Sorry Kris...

137

10/3/05

The Chili Cookoff

First set with The Katie Band (Dewey on Bass).  Closing set with Free Beer (Brookmyer On Bass).  Fun for all and Scott's Chili somehow won the whole thing.  No regarding for taste at the Chili Cookoff

136

9/17/05

Oktoberfest

Well year two at the Big Buck Brewery was not as well organized as year one.  Stage was half the size.  There was no Die Rhinelander band, but there was also no advertising and no crowd except what we brought ... which was still a pretty sizable crowd so all is good and right with America.  Keep fighting terrorism!

135

8/21/05

Walled Lake Western Class Reunion

Who knew that 37-year-old chicks could be so hot!  We learned 5 songs from 1985 just for this gig.  They sucked, but the people loved us and made us play until the bitter end.

134

8/5/05

Wedding

We played a wedding by a lake in Fenton.  It was fun and they paid us money.  Are we sellouts?

133

7/23/05

Cordiant Dental Private Summer Party

Set up in the back yard of a big house in Milford, with 3/5 of Free Beer (Scott, Jim and Kurt) and 2/5 of Two Hour Limit (Jeff Brookmyer and Stefan Rarigh ... we called ourselves "The Second Greatest Cover Band On Earth".  First set ... good.  Between sets we ate and discovered "the plumber".  There was simply no way she had underwear on!  Second set the alcohol set in and all was right with the world.  No break, right into the third set.  When we ran out of songs, they paid a few more hunny just to have us attempt the songs they wanted to hear.  Lotsa fun!!  Did I mention the plumber?  Yes, I did.

132

5/21/05

The Library Pub

Ah ... the unofficial first day of summer.  And with that a lot of our fans were out enjoying the weather instead of being inside with us at the Library.  AND our favorite waitress (Sandy) wasn't there to make sure we were correctly lubricated.  Oh well, still played three great sets and had the most member of Free Beer in one place at one time.  The five current members, plus Marty Beem (Bass Player #2) Jeff Brookmyer (Bass Player #4) and Stefan Rarigh (Drummer #5 1/2).  All sat in!

131

4/28/05

The Hamlin Pub

With the Pistons in the first round of the playoffs and the big screen TVs playing the game, the place was packed when we got there to set up and stayed that way all night long.  It also made for a late start.  For some reason, the convention of "tall young swimsuit models celebrating their 21st birthday" (TYSMCTTB) also decided to attend (why was the camera not working on this one night?) which made for some interesting situations. One birthday girl lost her balance, fell over the monitor, knocking Kurt's mic into his teeth (one fat lip) and was splayed legs up on the stage (one lost dignity and one nice pair of lace panties).  Another confiscated Scott's tambourine and simply wouldn't give it back.  That's OK because when she was smacking people on the butt with it, it took some pretty heavy damage (one new tambourine from the band fund) We'll be back again!

130

4/16/05

The Library Pub

Started slow on one of the first really nice days of the year, but it picked up fast as the Free Beer Fans came out in force. Overall, another great gig with lots of fun and games.  Jim sings in front of people for the second straight show with a rousing rendition of Long Live Rock.

129

4/2/05

Boulders

Michigan State makes it to the Final Four and Boulders has the big screen pulled down for the big game.  We were supposed to play a quick four song set at Halftime, but that got scuttled when the Spartys lead by 5 at the half.  Then it went downhill, MSU lost to North Carolina by 15 and we went on at 11:30.  Great crowd, 2 long sets, lots of dancing and the debut of Jim Edelman on vocals during Long Live Rock.  Also, an appearance by the "Guns and Roses" guy.  He'll stand in front of the band and yell "Guns and Roses" like Mason yells "Detroit Basketball" at Pistons games ... you know that taunting Nah Nah Na-Nah Nah voice that you just want to punch the guy?  

128

3/12/05

New Way Bar

We were requested to play at the bar by David Ashburn from the Metro Times who was having a birthday.  It was a good time, three sets all by ourselves debuting 5 new songs.  Also featured a guest, Adam Acey on Congas and percussion during sets two and three.  Adam should have some calluses built up on his hands now, noting from the blood pouring from his left hand during set three.  Most amazing was that the New Way had installed a new stage and sound system just prior to our arrival.  

127

2/7/05

Boulders

The night before the Super Bowl.  Of course, we made no mention of it at all.  
We are calling this gig the kick off of the "Free Beer Becomes Strangely Popular" Tour. All of a sudden, the Booking agents started calling us!  Again, Jeff Brookmyer sit in on the big bad bass.  First set was a little sketchy, but in true Free Beer form, as the beer settled in and the intoxication level rose, the better we seemed to sound (funny how that works, huh?).  By the end of the night, we were back on the Boulders Schedule for April 2.

126

12/18/04

New Way Bar

Free Beermas, number 10!!  Hindsight opened up for us during the New Way's Christmas Party.  Another packed up house ... but again a missing band member to make it all that much more fun.  #6 got called out on another last minute secret mission.  This time, with no practice and just a set list in hand, Steve Tocco sat in on drums and totally kicked ass.  It goes to show you what a great drummer he is, or how easy our set list is to learn.

125

11/24/04

Library Pub
"The Night Before Thanksgiving"

It was our eighth annual Night Before Thanksgiving gig.  Since Dewey was on vacation, "Brookmyer" sat in on Bass.  We played as good we ever have, the crowd was large (still a line outside at 11:30!) and Jeff's mom came and saw the band.  The first blizzard of the year didn't help load in or load out too much, but everyone seems to have made it home alive!!

124

10/22/04

Hamlin Pub

Our first gig ever here!  Lotsa lotsa people, and a whole new group of fans who can't believe that we don't play every weekend!! Teeny Weeny stage for a band full of big guys. #6 booked this gig for us, but then was called away on double secret business in the Mohave Desert!  So, Stefan from 2 Hour Limit filled in for us on drums and was his amazing self again!  We'll be back here!

123

9/18/04

Library Pub
"OktUNDERfest"

Everything the Big Buck wasn't, the Library was.  Warm, stable power supply, no stage to fall off of.  About 15 people made it to both nights.  It could have been one of our best sets ever.  Crowd was totally into it and we didn't miss to many notes.  Maybe because no one could drink any more due to high beer content from the previous night.

122

9/17/04

Big Buck Brewery
"Oktoberfest"

This was a long night for Jim and Scott, because they came and set up the PA system at 4PM on Friday.  Our warm up band was non other than the legendary Rhinelander Band.  And a warm up was needed because of the unseasonable North Wind, coming in the open north end of the tent.  It didn't seem to bother the Rhinelanders, they started at 6 and didn't finish until EXACTLY 10PM.  And the tripping of the circuit breaker every 10 minutes didn't bother them either.  Free Beer hit the stage at 10:30P, but no one was cold then.  The great beer had taken effect.  Some power issues knocked out the keyboards repeatedly during the first set and no one noticed when Jim fell off the stage.  But Free Beer kept rockin' (hard) until they literally told us to get off the stage.  We loved it, we can't wait to do it again!!

121

8/20/04

New Way Bar

Dream Cruise Thursday
This was our first official gig with new Bass Player Dwayne (Dewey) Larkin in the line up.  The Muscle cars were on the street, the crowd was in the house and we learned enough songs with Dewey that we made it through two entire sets.  Again, Paula from the Candy Band chimed in with an improvised version of Paranoid from Black Sabbath. Again, We all vowed to do it again soon.

120

5/21/04

New Way Bar

This gig was a lot of fun.  It was a gathering of all the bands we have met through our kids in the Royal Oak Schools.  You meet other parents and they ask you about what you do and you say "I'm in a Band" ... and they say "I'm in a Band"!  Only in Detroit is everyone's hobby having a Rock Band.  So we got all three of them together for on night at the New Way.  First was the Candy Band.  They ripped through a set of their new songs and nasty nursery rhymes.  Next was some Sonic Sensory Soaking from The Basements, doing all and all original set of featuring songs from their latest CD.  Free Beer finished the night with fill in Drummer Stefan Rarigh from 2 Hour Limit (Jeff's OTHER Band).  He did great, earning the label Drummer 6.1.  Coincidentally, Drummer #4 T.J. was in the crowd, ran the sound board and sang Old Apartment with us.  Paula from the Candy Band chimed in with an improvised version of Paranoid from Black Sabbath.  We all vowed to do it again soon.

119

4/24/04

Library Pub

A rare night Saturday Night in April with no Detroit Sports on TV ... everything happened that afternoon.  Red Wings beat Calgary in Game Two of the second round, Pistons beat Milwaukee in Game 3 of the first round and the Tigers beat Cleveland on a walk off home run.  As for the music, plenty of fun, although the Library Pub seemed a bit darker.  Special guest appearances on stage by Tom "Udaman" Umanovic ... It was his birthday and he sang "Dream All Day".  Also had bass player Dwayne Larkin sit in for 5 songs.  He had read the Neil Rubin article about us looking for a bass player and brought his left handed axe to the gig.  

118

3/20/04

Library Pub

This was supposed to be the "First Gig of Spring 2004", but spring happened at 1:47AM that morning and we didn't go on until 10PM.  Unfortunately, it seems that Spring ended before the gig did, temperature at 2AM was 32 degrees.  With the NCAA tournament and a Red Wings game, this was easily the most crowded stage Free Beer has played on it a while.  Talk about front row, we incorporated dinner tables into the stage.

117

2/14/04

Library Pub

Because nothing says "I Love You" like Free Beer at the Library Pub.  Amazingly enough, there were twice as many people here on Valentines Day as there were on Friday the Thirteenth.  Which goes to show you that Free Beer is the single man's band.  Come and get'em gals!!

116

2/13/04

Library Pub

We learned six new songs and debut them all.  (Folsom Prison Blues, Little Less Conversation, Clocks, Riders On The Storm, Bright Future in Sales and Kid Charlemagne.  Not the luckiest night to do it, by why not, we could try again tomorrow night.

115

12/12/03

Karl's Country Cabin

BeerMas, 2003.  A big benefit for Toys For Tots, with two bands, Free Beer and Two Hour Limit.  Free Beer goes on first, while some patrons are still enjoying a nice dinner.  They still like us!  The place is jam packed as Two Hour Limit hits the stage!  Boy are the kids going to be happy with all then new toys they got for the holid ... what?!?  No one collected money at the door?  No one got in for half price by bringing a toy?  Oh well.  Looks like our present to the kids was music this year.

114

11/26/03

Library Pub

The seventh annual "Night Before Thanksgiving" gig was a rip roaring success.  The Library was packed again and since there were both Red Wings and Pistons games on, we didn't go on until 11P.  There was still a line out the door until well past midnight.  It was our first try with a real live SOUND GUY, Jim Flynn, who made us sound great.  After we finished three sets, Dan "The Mortgage Man" stepped up from the audience and played a little blues as walkout music.  Look for his picture at the end of the gallery for the night.

113

10/18/03

Hall-o-Ween

Our annual Hall party to celebrate Hall o Ween.  First, Jeff's new band "Two Hour Limit" plays ... they're great and they bring a bunch of friends ... then another hundred people showed up before we went on ... new records for Kegs of Beer (5) and Pizza (20) and boxes of wine (2). Great time, packed, lots of fun!!

112

10/03/03

The Library Pub

What a lot of fun this was!!  Lots of old friends and lots of new fans.  We warmed up for the Hall O Ween Party by loading the second set up with Halloween tunes, including closing the set with our Rocky Horror Picture Show medley.

111

8/15/03

New Way Bar

Was supposed to be the big night before the Dream Cruise, but when power went out to 50 million from Detroit to the Eastern Seaboard, things changed. Original plan was for Free Beer, The Motor Dolls and Rash Exuberance to play to the pre Dream Cruise crowd.   Instead of half a million pedestrians enjoying some cruising, the crowd was sparse since the emergency had enacted a curfew.  Only the brave came out.  Unfortunately, only Free Beer came out.  Motor Dolls and Rash Exuberance didn't make it. 

110

7/18/03

Library Pub

Drummer #6, Cool Mo Tommy D gave us a scare when work called him out of town just before the gig.  He makes it back just in time to jam with special guest from our past, Bass Player #1, Paul Sevigny who sits in for two songs in the second set, Pump It Up and Girlfriend.  Debut of Mama Kin!

109

5/30/03

New Way Bar

Back in the Saddle again after a 4 month performance break, debuting drummer #6 Cool Mo Tommy D at the New Way Bar.  Great big crowd including members of the Motor Dolls, Basements, Mydols and Mud Puppy among others.

108

2/10/03

Hellenic Center

We warmed up a band from Ohio called Oval Opus at Wendy and Mario's 10th Anniversary party.  Lots of fun.  Tried not to look.  Bob Espinoza was back on drums, but with NO HAIR!  It kind of freaked us out a little.

107

1/11/03

New Way Bar

Due to a booking problem, this gig replaced our Holiday gig.  The drumming situation did not stabilize after all and Bob Espinoza called it quits after the great success at the Library.  Thank goodness TJ Collica offered to fill in.  Free Beer went on first, and Jeff's band Four Years Gone closed the show.  It was their last gig too ...

106

104

9/14/02

Boulders

Our last gig there was March 27, 1999 ... it took them 1,267 days to invite us back.  They also forgot to mention that although they provide the PA system, the band is responsible for mics, monitors and cord, necessitating a roadtrip back to the practice barn and an 11:15 start.  TJ's last club gig.
