I went to it with a few friends(without tickets)......we stood in a line and were the last ones to get in. It was well worth the wait in line.

But if they were to come to Newport...would you or anyone else venture that way to catch them???? I know they have a huge loyal fan base. I would hope that they would. Just putting feelers out there to see if they would pack the place like we would hope. (That's if they want to go to Newport again and any of this actually takes place.)

STEELTIPS ROAD TRIP TO SEE THE HOODS WE DONT FREAKIN' CARE

It looks like the Hoods already have a RI gig lined up! This Saturday night !!!! Stay tuned for more info....

The Phenoix has the following listing on-line:

THE LIVING ROOM

Date(s): Saturday, October 21, 2006

A tribute to Randy Hien with the Neighborhoods, the Schemers, Neutral Nation [tent.], Kris Hanson

I'm just finding out after several years of noise boarding, that there were/are other bands?

Can someone verify the authenticity of such a claim?

the phoenix paper ad lists :10/21 RANDY HIEN BENEFIT WITH THE SCHEMERS AND MORE. ALSO 10/22 RANDY HIEN BENEFIT.THATS ALL IT SAYS IN PHOENIX?!?

Trust Me. The Hoods are playing too.

no doubt ed i know they are and a band member verified it for me so we'll all be there.................

Set times .........anyone?

ANYONE KNOW IF THERE IS A WAY TO PURCHASE TICKETS IN ADVANCE???

IT WOULD SURE HELP TO KNOW THAT WE CAN GET IN THE DOOR AFTER THE DRIVE TO Rho-Dee

I'd call the LR and ask. I don't think it'l sell out. And it looks like the Hoods will be playing a full set. But I don't have the times yet.

yes

And the board burst back to life!

Any tips (steel or otherwise) on pre-sale tickets, parking and good but cheap eats?

You da man! Tips Rule!

Matt "Hood Head" Mac Haffie

Set times and prices!

Alpha's just earned himself two weeks in the cooler.

I was just at the Living Room last night for UpperCrust and SUPAGROUP and I didn't see any flyers up for tonight. I'm going and I'm going to try and talk The Hoods into playing a gig in Newport. Help me out and tell them that they need another gig for us in the south.

By the way SUPAGROUP is the best band. They ruled the stage last night straight up in your face ROCK AND ROLL.
CHECK THEM OUT!!!!

Any idea when the Hoods will go on?

Could someone post a setlist, please? Thanks!

I was in Jamaica all last week. Flew in late Saturday totally oblivous to the show.

I'm all in on another Newport show. Newport Blues has a sick, sick stage. But wherever they play I'll be there.

Hangin’
Pure And Easy
Yeah You

Sittin’ At Home
Arrogance
Parasite

Save Yourself
Evel Knievel

Sea Of Memories
Innocence Lost

Tommy
N.P.L.H.
One Day Older
Think It Over

This was the list they started with.... But the added

Flavors

The Seeker

He's A Whore

Flavors in place of N.P.L.H
Mr. Reeves in place of Think it Over
added The Seeker and He`s a Whore

That's a pretty damn good set.

I would love to hear Sea of Memories and Innocence Lost - those
would be my requests for the much awaited Boston show.

Ah shit. I wanted to hear innocence lost. Oh, well hopefully they will play it at the next show.

............"see of memories" "hangin" "he's a whore" FUCK!

Was a great set and a great night also nice because it all came together at once..............DAVID ADLIBBED IN flavors " I'LL HAVE AN 8BALL TO GO" BEFORE THE LAST CHORUS harking back to the old days the great thing about the hoods is they have always been so approachable, regular guys, i've been watching them and have been lucky enough to hang out and party with them since 1979 wheather at UMASS DARTMOUTH, OCEAN MIST, CENTER STAGE, THE RAT , EDIBLE REX ETC.........SHOOTING POOL DRINKING BEERS GREAT GUYS

Monday Morning

Another classic HOODS tune, I last saw them do it at the RAT 10/24/92....
