01/31/2007 JJ's Blues - The End of the Line...
Well this was the end of the line...last stop for the Bus in its current line up. Playing to a packed house, we bid Ed Travalia a fond farewell in his final show. The band would like to thank all our fans and supporters. There were plenty of friends and fans both old and new who turned up to rock out and make it a special night.

We'd like to thank Johnny of JJ's Blues for the endless encouragement and opportunity to play at his fantastic club so many times. If you want great blues and amazing musicians, there is no better place in the bay.

We'd also like to thank Nino, our tireless self appointed roadie...there for every gig taking pictures and video and always willing to haul equipment at 2 in the morning! His help and support has been invaluable.

We wish our band mate and our friend the best of luck in his endeavors. There are no endings...only new beginnings. We've been through a lot and we've all learned so much...you'll always have a band to jam with...

You don't need no gypsy to tell you why
You can't let one precious day slip by.
Look inside yourself, and if you dont see what you want,
Maybe sometimes then you don't,
But leave your mind alone and just get high.

Well by and by, way after many years have gone,
And all the war freaks die off, leavin us alone.
We'll raise our children in the peaceful way we can,
It's up to you and me brother
To try and try again.

Well, hear us now, we ain't wastin' time no more
cause time goes by like hurricanes
Runnin' after subway trains
Don't forget the pouring rain.

ShortBus will ride again...we'll see all you cats on the flip side...
