Slim Cessna's Auto Club @ Ogden Theatre, Denver CO, 1999-07-02

 

End of an era here in Denver Colorado.  Slim from Slim Cessna's Auto Club has announced that the band is done.  After 30+ years he wants to hang it up.  He got married not to long ago and is going to continue to perform with her on a limited basis.  They have release a few songs.  Munly is touring as a solo act now.  I'm sure his other acts will continue too.  Slim's son George has a great new band called El Welk and plays solo occasionally.  Life moves on in the Queen city.  So it goes.

30 years is a hell of a run and I saw a ton of SCAC and related shows in that time frame.  Thanks to Slim and all the members for all the great music and good times over the years.  

I've shared a lot of my SCAC recordings but not this one before.  On this night in July of 1999 SCAC opened up for Primus at the Ogden Theatre in Denver Colorado.  I remember being stoked since I was fans of both bands but thinking it was kind of an odd billing.   Well a certain percentage of Primus fans thought that too.  Very vocally in between some of the songs.  Chanting "Primus sucks" as they would do in that era.  You can also hear people cheering as well and SCAC were pros by this point and still sounded great I think even if some of the crowd was hot garbage.

Great setlist on this night with one remnant from the pre Munly days with "Lethal Injection" and lots of stuff from Always Say Please And Thank You.  Enjoy.
