A cool video of the Squirrel Nut Zippers performing "Have You Had Enough" in Connecticut

Have You Had Enough World Tour — CT

Tommy and Ken of the Squirrel Nut Zippers appeared for Ned Lamont last night in New Haven, and today they're appearing for Chris Murphy (I spoke with Tommy and he said there was one mic and another plugged into the wall — he says their touring conditions may be a bit remedial but they are determined to have a good time.)

Please stop by in the comments and thank them for taking the time to do this. It was a huge moral booster and the spirit of the show was so hopeful, so good natured and fun it was infectious. TRex was there also and will no doubt have more tonight, but I'm thinking we need more of this for '08. A lot more. How about you?

2. We love the Zippers in my household...

mr liberty and I saw them in Charlotte, NC at a downtown music festival in the late 90's. We're huge big band and swing fans, and have been for years. mr liberty inherited his grandfather's prize LP collection, which was probably where he got his love of that era. They were really good, and I was disappointed to hear that they weren't together anymore. We've got all their CD's. They're from NC, you know. (small flash of home-state pride there - gotta make up for the embarrassment of Liddy Dole somehow!)
