With many good offers for what to do on Thanksgiving Eve, there was only one choice on how to spend it - Dead Hot Workshop at the new Teakwoods in Phoenix.

Jason Longo of Muddy Violets opened up with an acoustic set, joined half way through by Curtis and Thomas for a jam session, who towards the end did a version of Lead Thoughts.

Dead Hot Workshop were in fine form and did a great set list. Marc Norman went up at one point for Push Luck Shove. I'm pretty sure I've heard / seen video of Ghetto Cowgirl doing it before, but seeing Marc singing it with Dead Hot was pretty awesome. He was born to sing that song!

All the cool kids were there, and Robin Wilson was no exception, showing up earlier in the night. Right after Push Luck Shove, Brent called out for him to take the stage which he did. I absolutely expected him to break into G-Daddy, but was pleasantly surprised when instead he did Hanging Out With Ray - too cool!

Unlike the huge stage at the Sail Inn, seeing them last night was akin to seeing them at Long Wongs - admittedly with a larger stage. Probably in no small part due to Sara Cina's involvement in Teakwoods.

What also stood out what the bands, and especially Brent's, passion for the live show, 20 years after they first started. You can see Dead Hot Workshop 20 years after the fact and not feel that you missed much or much has changed. Heads are a bit balder, but that's about it. Long live Dead Hot Workshop!

Great night!
