That’s right boys and girls, smoke ‘em if you got ‘em! It looks like the 2 Skinnee J’s are doing up the 10 year anniversary of Supermercado in true skinnee style…a mini-tour bitches! For those that haven’t see them yet, here’s your chance. For those die-hards, here’s a chance to see them rock out one more time. Who knows if it will ever happen again…we can only hope.

Dear 2SJ peeps…
Over the holidays, a golden light shone down from above and it was shaped like Stumpy… I picked up the phone and called an old friend… who called another old friend… who called another. One call led to another and before we all knew it, we were back together fighting over ketchup and eggs in NYC (ok, it was just me and Lance fighting over the ketchup). We all are a little older, larger, and definitely wiser (I hear AJS has exceeded omniscient).
Next summer is the 5 year anni since the last show with the full line up. 10 years since $upermercado. The time for the full fledged renunion has come. To make things complete we even got Action back on drums (B is on sabitical selling his ball swing - no, Eddie didn’t help).
August 6 - 11 2008
DC, Norfolk, NYC and two others TBA.
Put the request in for time off and book your flights now. Convert your 401Ks into small bills for Stump. And most of all, get ready to ROKK!!!
Aight, so it’s back to the drawing board…who else is up for some space suit action!
Sweet! C’mon down. You can crash at our place and we can hit the show.
DT.
I swear to God if you don’t make it to at least one of these shows, I’ll personally come down and kick your ass.
Back in the ‘day’ (mid 90’s?, it was all a haze then…) I was drum tech for a band that opened for the J’s at the Bayou in DC. It was awesome. They blew the place up. Crazy fun. One of the most fun bands I’ve ever seen…with crazy Stumpy up there just maxin’….
I wish I could catch a show, but it wouldn’t be the same now. I’m too old. I’ll savour the memories.
