I'll tell you what, after seeing Tavern Tan and this here music they unfold-- wal, I guess I seen somethin' ever' bit as stupefyin' as ya'd see in any a those other places, and in English too, so I can die with a smile on my face without feelin' like the good
Lord gypped me.

You guys kicked out the jams at the Sustain-a-Ball! Any band that can rock like that without even a drummer there - you get my compliments. Really like the instrument switch and that song Longshot. Great stuff will see you soon

July 10, 2008

Thanks so much for coming to Tavern Tan's Godfrey's show, and we're glad
you enjoyed it! As for the Fez Monkey Totems, well, one of the many
answers you may hear is this:
The Tan has always been fascinated by monkeys and monkey imagery,
particularly the long history that fez-wearing monkeys share with old
organ grinder street entertainers, Shriners and Freemasons, and lounge
lizards everywhere...the song "Monkey with a Fez On" contains some
allusions to this history and was the first Tavern Tan song composed on
the spot by all members of the band! Ever since then, the Fez Monkey
totems follow us everywhere we go...and like The Tanners, sometimes they
smoke, sometimes they dont, sometimes they smile, sometimes they
don't...but they are always ready, willing and able to ROCK!

Cheers! Thanks again!

Jeff & Kathy

Saw you for the first time at Godfrey's on Saturday - GREAT show! Bought both CDs (listening to FF&C at work at the moment whilst I kill time). One question - you promised to explain the Monkey in the Fez during your show, but I missed this part? The story is?????

Thanks! See you again soon.

First time at Godfreys with Cherie last night. What an awesome laidback setting and you guys rocked. I loved the blues rock. You had a very tight sound. Keep up the good work and see you at music fest! Do you ever play in Doylestown?
God bless, Dan

I know it's months away, but I can't freakin wait for the Godfrey's show...You guys shook the paint off the walls last time, and it will be cool to relive that magic!!!! See you at the next jam....

I see you guys are rolling into Kutztown for the beer gardens. I'll be the fat drunk guy in the back screaming...wait that could be anybody in kutztown. Lots of fat drunk guys running around. I think it says that on the sign "welcome to kutztown- Home of the obese & inebriated" Hope to see you guys at the funhouse as well! The Dude Abides........

Lu told me where to find you. Great songs, great band - watch out or I'll steal 'em from you, Dougie! What else have you been up to? I lost your number, so we'll have to hook up for the crash course in idiot-hash song learning again. Was fun. Don't forget, we still have the same initials. Peace.

Lu

July 30, 2006

Thought of you yesterday - heard a Paul Westerberg song. Found you on CD Baby, I'm gonna buy a copy! Can't wait to hear the whole album. Good luck with your boys, Dougie.

John Kielmeyer

July 18, 2006

I was wondering if you guys like rock and roll? Cause guess what? I do to!!! In my humble opinion, and without hyperbole; every man, woman, and child on this earth must feel the burn of the TAVERN TAN.

I heard there was going to be an epic Farmers Market Gig. I must ask the question on everyones mind, is Ag Hall next? Oh the humanity.....

Hope to see and talk to you soon.
