A Little Insight:
\nThis is a first time ever Father and Son<\/strong><\/em> performance together opportunity for Shane and Jamie O’Brien<\/strong><\/em>. To say the least that Shane is very excited to be doing this show, is no exaggeration at all.
\nHere’s a little history of their musical lives and how the intersection of these two men on this night on this bandstand together is to say, nothing short of a wonderful miracle for Father and Son to experience together… Note also attending this show is Shane’s Father Brian O’Brien from Windsor, Ontario, Canada. Important because it has been two decades since Brian’s son has set foot in his Windsor home.<\/p>\n

Date and Time<\/span> of this coolest of cool, three generation gathering, for a Father and Son jam is actually pretty much a Miracle to have actually been worked out and scheduled. A huge thank you to host Mark Boone<\/strong> and his House Band of the “Thirsty’s Sunday Night Jams” at:<\/h5>\n

Shane O’Brien<\/em> : A brief look back at his timeline, starting from 1980 up to 2014:<\/span><\/span>
\n\u2665 1980 Shane performs his final show with his band “Polaris Project<\/strong>“<\/em> at Danny’s Tavern<\/em> in Windsor, Ontario, Canada. The Riverside Drive Venue was to be the very last time Shane plays the Canadian circuit to this very day in 2014.<\/p>\n

\u2665 1978-1980 Shane’s longest running band with mediocre success was “The Craze<\/em><\/strong>“. This band\u00a0 performed shows everywhere imaginable touring across Canada from Ontario<\/em> to British Columbia<\/em>. “The Craze” had performed shows in Vancouver, BC for six months before returning back to play four months of shows in Toronto. The Craze final performances were in London and Windsor, Ontario, all in all it was a three year deal. Shane was the lead singer\/guitarist front man.<\/p>\n

\u2665 In 1983 Shane move to Venice, California and began doing gigs as the “Shame, Shame, Shame Blues Band<\/strong><\/em>” as the house band for the Tahitian Bar<\/em><\/strong> in Inglewood, CA for the next year and a half. Also playing gigs at a club called “Key Largo<\/strong><\/em>” during some Thursday nights. The “Heat Brothers<\/strong>” played the weekends at that Torrance venue. Walter Trout was one of two guitarist in the Heat Brothers and that was a great place to see him blossom in his early days before he joined John Mayals Blues Breakers. There are photos of the Shame, Shame, Shame Blues Band<\/strong><\/em> playing as the house band for Sunday Jam Nights on the Redondo Beach Pier establishment called The Starboard Attitude<\/strong> <\/em>in 1983 that are still kicking around, if someone looks hard enough…<\/p>\n

\u2665 1995 thru 1999 had\u00a0the Shame, Shame, Shame Blues Band<\/strong><\/em> playing performances at local clubs in San Pedro, CA<\/em> such as The Hi De Ho<\/strong><\/em>, George’s Between Rounds<\/strong> <\/em>and later Spanky’s<\/strong><\/em>. The Shame,Shame, Shame Blues Band<\/em> produced the first band CD, titled “From CYC to CD”<\/em><\/strong> \u00a9 1999 Shane O’Brien\/Jungle Music Productions
\nThat production contains three tracks of which one was a 1995 live recording from the Between Rounds<\/strong> <\/em>era.<\/p>\n

\u2665 2000 Shane adopts a new name for his band: Shane O’Brien and O’Briens Edge. In that first year produces a 3 disc CD collection titled “Solid Gold Treasure Chest, disc 1, 2 and 3<\/strong><\/em>“. There are other Live recordings of the 1995 shows included in this collection. The majority of the set contains original acoustic versions of Shane’s written music that late showed up up as Band Blues Amplified selections on later produced CD’s.<\/p>\n

\u2665 2000 recording sessions became a very regular routine in Shane’s schedule, augmenting the band’s selection of performance materials for Shane O’Brien and O’Briens Edge gigs.<\/p>\n
