China Cat Riders play "Alligator" Hotel Wolfe Island Patio

This performance is from summer 2021 on the Waterfront Patio at Hotel Wolfe Island. This was a special show with Tom "Mickey" Melnychuck joining Pete "Billy" Bowers. Tom was a couple grades ahead of Pete in high school back in Waterloo and his crew introduced Pete and Kev to the Grateful Dead.
Tom is returning Oct 25 to reprise the China Cat "rhythm devils" team for our tribute to "Workingman's Dead." The first set is that classic album in order. Tom will join and other great local musical guests including the crew from the Mill Rights. Second set we play any old Dead but keep the special guests coming.
