Enough of my ramblings about Scamper's last show. How about hearing from the voice of the people, the great and powerful Hogg?
Folks,
It's an honor and a pleasure to be a guest blogger for one last time on Brendan's Scamper thing. As many of you will agree, Scamper's last show on Saturday was shazamaramadingdong-tastic. Everyone seemed to have a fun and the music from all the bands was top notch.
With that in mind, I'd like to present my top ten personal observations from the show that enhanced the evening that much more:
10. Not only finding free parking that was conveniently close but also finding it instantly!
9. Doing more jumping and yelling than I've done in months.
8. Balancing my consumption so everyone's friend "Buzzed Hogg" came to the concert - he yells more than Sober Hogg but less people tend to get hurt (physically and emotionally) than with Drunk Hogg.
7. Having Scamper's Number 1 Fan dancing around and spilling beer on my wife - he was terrific... but he owes my wife an apology.
6. Correcting Baker on their assertion that a cornet is a "derivative of the trumpet". You see, while similar to a trumpet, the cornet was actually derived from the POST HORN - a brass circular valveless instrument used mainly in the 18th and 19th centuries... bitches!!
5. At the end of the night, my wife knowing to preemptively lock the car windows so Hogg wouldn't be able yell stuff at people as we left.
4. Running into Joe Welsh of Fooled by April fame - that guy's a fucking dreamboat.
3. Having the "DO YOU LIKE SCAMPER?!?!?" girl place Scamper stickers on everyone's crotches (men) and chests (women). She was fantastic!
2. Women with cleavage getting beer for me from bartenders who clearly prefer women with cleavage over Hogg (jerks).
And the best part of the night aside from the music...
1. A manly hug from Brendan Boogie that smelled of beer and cinnamon... and lasted just a little too long.

Two of those things happened to me!@
I usually smell like whiskey and paprika. Beer and cinnamon is my "special occasion" scent.
Which two things?
Regarding #7 - I would never presume to be Scamper's #1 fan, but that could have very likely been me and would feel awful if I (unknowingly) spilled beer on someone. If it was me I apologize emphatically (!!!) and if Scamper has a reunion show one day, I will apologize again and repurchase your wife a beer to in turn spill on me.
