Last Sunday we had a very intimate cabaret on the beach. It was (us) Sonic Uke, ambulance Uke Goldberg and Gio from The War Ponies. We all met at Riis Beach and after a few beers, illness some Popeye’s Chicken and a dip in the ocean we started the Cabaret. We even had a couple captive audiences, a few Radical Faeries and later a dear friend of the cabaret, Mary. We sang our usual set and added a couple new songs including our ode to Riis, a.k.a., “Cha Cha Beach” titled By The Sea. Ted & Gio played with us as well as a song or two of their own. Gio even tried to teach us Meatloaf’s “I Would Do Anything For Love”. Although he was right, for us to learn all 9 minutes of the song would take more then a couple lessons on the beach. By this time Uke Goldberg had left us to perform on Fire Island. But we still had a blast. Sadly the day came to an end and the rest of us packed it in and went home. But, we managed to capture some of it on film.
