We’ve played a mere three times on St. Patrick’s Day, and thanks to our booking agents past and present for keeping us out of harm’s way. In 1989, we appeared at Providence’s Rocket nightspot (soon to rename themselves Club Babyhead) and commemorated the holiday by encoring with “Gloria.” In Tokyo, nine years later, near as I can tell, we paid it no mind, though I think we all have fond memories of our post-show green sushi. Last year, we found ourselves in the holiday spirit at the Paradiso in Amsterdam, and consequently pulled out . . . “Halloween.”
