Turn Around
Do What You Want
For You
Used To This*
All I Need*
Pretty Girl (The Most Beautiful Girl In The World, You Send Me, Slow Hand, Shining Star, Let's Get It On, Your Body is a Wonderland, Do Ya Think I'm Sexy, I Want You To Want Me, You're The Best I Ever Had)*
Sweetest Berry*+
Good Thing
*w Michael Chaves
+w Bob Reynolds
Three shows this month, three completely different experiences. DRH had MC Chaves on guitar and Bob on sax in the house. Beautiful stuff. Chaves jumping right in with the riff when David sang the line from "Wonderland" in "Pretty Girl" was classic. Bob's performance was indeed baby-inducing and "Good Thing" was a straight out par-tay.
David mentioned next week's show will include some of the new tunes he's been working on...
Sidebar - saw our buddy John Butler last night at the Troubadour. Tremendous show. Icing on the cake was the first song of the encore - a dedication to MJ, "I Want You Back".

DRHWNJHC Part 2
17 July 2009 drhwnjhc part 2
Sorry for being tardy...and I don't have a note, so I guess it's one of those unexcused tardies?
Do What You Want (Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman)
Strong Enough
For You*
If I Had A Dime
Can We Get Down
Turn Around**
Sign O' The Times**
Good Thing**
Pretty Girl (You're The [Effing] Best, One on One, I Want You To Want Me, Natural Woman, The Most Beautiful Girl in the World, Sexual Healing, Let's Get It On)**
*unplugged and un-mic'd
**w/ JJ
Very different show than last week in many respects. The crowd was so keyed in that David played "For You" from the front of the stage, sans amplification. I haven't heard "Do What You Want" or "Sign O' The Times" in a while. And of course, the presence of JJ Johnson on stage, off stage, in the room, in the building, in the city ensures a wonderful evening.
See you next Wednesday.

DRHWNJHC Part 1
10 July 2009 drhwnjhc part 1
Tonight was the first night of David Ryan Harris on Wednesday Nights in July at Hotel Cafe. The setlist:
The Way You Make Me Feel
Used to This
For You
Subterranean Homesick Alien
Turn Around (If You Think You're Lonely Now)
Be Beautiful
Pretty Girl (How Sweet It Is, You Send Me, Everybody Here Wants You, Let's Get It On, Natural Woman, Slow Hand, Your Body is a Wonderland)
Sweetest Berry
If I Had A Dime
(all solo, all hot fiyah)
The MJ cover was an incredible way to start off the night. David also played an inspired "SHA" as a similar tribute. I haven't heard "Be Beautiful" in forever ever... "Pretty Girl" had a break in the middle of the bridge - explaining it to those who weren't there would only be more confusing. Loved the solo in "Sweetest Berry". Also found out that "If I Had A Dime" is also titled "Bitch I Want Breakfast".
But the best line of the night was before "Pretty Girl" - to the fine, curvy girls: "...don't lose anything...but articles of clothing..."
See you next Wednesday...maybe we'll get PYT?

DO YOU WANT MORE?!!!??! DRH, TEMPLE BAR, SANTA MONICA, 11-17-07
A blog from Scotty Crowe:
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 2007
DO YOU WANT MORE?!!!??!
DRH, TEMPLE BAR, SANTA MONICA, 11-17-07
David Ryan Harris and BOOYAHWHATCHA-CHING (see below) hit the stage last night at Temple Bar in Santa Monica, CA -
For You*
All I Need (Everything's Not Lost)
Turn Around
Sweetest Berry**
Pretty Girl (The Most Beautiful Girl in the World, You Send Me, Natural Woman, Let's Get it One)
Used to This
Hold My Fire
Yesterday Shutting Down**
can he get an encore, do you want more?
If I Had A Dime
all songs performed by BOOYAHWHATCHA-CHING (DRH, Michael Chaves, Sean Hurley, JJ Johnson, and the new addition of Chris Lovejoy on percussion) except:
*DRH solo electric
**BOOYAHWHATDENCHA-CHING (add a dash of Bob Reynolds to make it extra tasty)
So, it's a Temple Bar sandwich on Hotel Cafe bread this month - our boys posted it up 11 blocks from the beach and pretty much tore the place down. With JJ and Bob still hanging out in LA, it was another crowded stage of all-stars. Chris Lovejoy jumped in the mix tonight, adding all kinds of things from his neverending bag of tricks (he's like Gallagher over there...except good). I'm not gonna lie, I feel like my toes were a little stepped on when he broke out the triangle in YESTERDAY SHUTTING DOWN, but I'll make it. Let's hear it for a sweet Summer 2001 reference!
Bob killed it on SWEETEST BERRY - best I've ever heard the tune. DRH did his thing in HOLD MY FIRE and YESTERDAY before the crowd brought the dudes back for the first IF I HAD A DIME of the month. Of the season, even.
All in all, a fantastic little night. I think we downsize to BOOYAH tomorrow night at Hotel Cafe, but you don't have to take my word for it.

WHO WAS WHERE WITH WHOM AND WHERE YOU WAS? WHAT? YES.
A blog from Mr. Scotty Crowe:

David Ryan Harris and BOOYAH (and more!) returned for Round 2 at Hotel Cafe last night:
All I Need (Al Green interlude, Everything's Not Lost)*
Hold My Fire*
Sweetest Berry**
Yesterday Shutting Down***
Sittin' On Top Of The World***
Pretty Girl (Shining Star, No One, The Most Beautiful Girl In The World, Sexual Healing)*
For You
*band comprised of BOOYAH (Michael Chaves and Sean Hurley) and JJ Johnson, creating BOOYAHWHAT
**band comprised of BOOYAHWHAT and Bob Reynolds, creating BOOYAHWHATDEN
***band comprised of BOOYAHWHATDEN and John Mayer, creating BOOYAHWHATDENAWWWCHYEAH(snap)
all other songs performed solo (yes, for those of you keeping score at home, that's only one of 'em)
What a day. After spending the day prepping for and playing a little private set with BOOYAHWHATDENAWWWCHYEAH(snap)'s other configuration, we rolled to Hollywood for the big Hotel Sauna (or Sauna Cafe or Sauna Sauna, point being it was WARM in that mofo) show. The kids came out like no shoes and were not disappointed.
We got HOLD MY FIRE early in the night, which set up one of the most rockin', deepest groovin' SWEETEST BERRYs I've ever heard. Bob added some sweet sweet saxiness. John jumped up for YESTERDAY SHUTTING DOWN and SITTIN' ON TOP OF THE WORLD (a Howlin' Wolf cover), all the guys trading solos in the latter and all the people soul-clapping in the former. DRH brought back the love to close the set (got to understand he loves the kids). A special night indeed for everyone in the room.
A few visuals to go with that essay, all via my man Gari Lamar Askew (with his Ron Gant-esque swagger)...see you next week...
Don't act like i never toldya.

David Ryan Harris Was at the Hotel Cafe Last Night. Were You?
A BLOG FROM MR. SCOTTY CROWE:
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 06, 2007
DAVID RYAN HARRIS WAS AT HOTEL CAFE TONIGHT, WERE YOU?
For You*
Strong Enough*
All I Need (Everything's Not Lost)
Can We Get Down
Caribbean Queen tease >
Used to This
Turn Around
Pretty Girl (The Most Beautiful Girl in the World, No One, Sexual Healing, Let's Get It On, I Want You To Want Me, Your Body is a Wonderland)
--
Don't Look Down*
*solo
all other songs with Michael Chaves and Sean Hurley (not this one), creating the collective group I will henceforth call "BOOYAH"
Ok y'alls. I've seen a lot of shows and talked a bunch of hyperbole, but tonight was something special. I can only assume it's a harbinger of the Mondays to come, but these guys together make magic. These songs, old favorites, had a completely new and different vibe thanks to BOOYAH. "Can We Get Down" ended with a singalong and a "that's the man workin' on your bed...springs." "All I Need" and "Used to This" were great all Chaves-ized. "Pretty Girl" was fun as always and included a little of the new Alicia Keys single. BOOYAH reverted to DRH for an encore of "Don't Look Down."
It was a special night, and there are 3 more coming up this month (if you were at home tonight, your November was only 25% ruined). Monday nights. Hotel Cafe.
BOOYAH.
