The Q101 Jamboree 2000 kicked off this year without any
rain. And being the kings of picking a date when the rain is
prominent and imposing, Q101 happened upon a date where
everything was warm and clear. Pretty funny that they chose
to make the opening band start under the cover of the
pavilion (maybe because they were expecting the rain like
any normal year, then again the sun does shine on a dog's
ass every now and again). So, there we were, sitting under
the pavilion waiting the start of the show (Long Beach Dub
Allstars, for those without privilege of a schedule). With
no beer yet due to the fact that they didn't start serving
the normal schleps (like us) until 3pm, The Dude on the Left
and I were a little on edge. Maybe the beer would have
helped some early bands, it definitely didn't help some
later bands, and without further adoo, whooppadee doo,
follow along with for all of our reviews! Damn, I'm a
poet and don't know it!The Dude on the Right
Q101, WKQX, 101.1 on your FM
dial in Chicago for you technical folks, likes to put on
this Jamboree every year. This year being the year 2000,
they dubbed it Jamboree 2000, or J2K for short. Thank God
they've continued with their tradition of holding it on a
Saturday. Why? Great weather. It was just about perfect. A
little cool under the pavilion, sunny but not too hot for
the second stage, and no rain. Once again I unleashed The
Dude on the Left and Big Cooter to kick ass in the mosh pit
and hang in the pavilion while I snapped some photos. This
year Big Cooter did the honor of writing the review, with
The Dude on the Left giving a lame excuse to me of something
like "I agreed with most everything Big Cooter said so
my writing a review would be redundant. If you want me to,
I'll write one, but it will probably be lame." So I let
The Dude on the Left off the hook. Let's get to reviewing
starting with
Long Beach Dub All Stars.
