Reeks and the Wrecks - Live in Portland, Last Show (2003)

This is a recording of the Reeks and the Wrecks final live performance. Dylan (aka Hamburger Chubbs) captured the evening on a midi recorder. You can hear Dylan and a handful of ex-Bellingham types engaging in illegal mind-melding behavior during the set. At this time Orion and Jason's band with Caroline, Spooky Dance Band, resided and performed regularly in Portland. Andy's visits south were becoming a bit more regular. These last Reeks shows were marked by an air of rarity and mystique. The Reeks had reached a sort of legendary status around Portland. Knife Hits was finished and going to the presses over at tUMULt. A quality moment in the Reeks' performance career.
