The Screaming Mimes perform “Three Cheers Cincinnati” at Redsfest in December 2006. It's not a bad performance, especially considering the severe audio problems they were having and the fact that the whole band was running around trying to orchestrate the event up until the minute they went on stage. The rendition isn't quite as good as the one you'll hear on Cincinnati Clutch Hits, but it does feature some awkward video of the crowd, sadly lacking shots of RHM. Dude, I had pom poms and everything.

I just heard on the radio this morning that the Reds Caravan will be stopping in Muncie this year on Saturday, January 27. They'll be at Damon's from 3:30-5:30. Scheduled to appear: Todd Coffey, Thom Brennaman, and Red Hot Mama.
