The sun had just set as I walked toward one of my favorite casting areas. I saw the big white tents on the lawn in the backyard of a mansion. Big party tonight I thought. Just hope they don't have fireworks as they often do. Just seems fireworks blasted over my surfcasting area puts a damper on my success. Around 9:30 the music starts and I recognize some of the tunes from the 1970s. Very good jazzy/funk sound. Good band for a wedding I thought. I continue to cast my live eels and tap my korkers to the beat of the music, every once in a while interrupted by a take. At 1030 I lose my last eel to a fat 20 pound fish as "Celebration" plays in the background. Time to go. I walk by the tent and peer into the back of the stage - which is facing the water. Kool and the Gang are finishing their set for the private party benefit for the CVS Charity Golf Tournament. Kool jumps off the back of the stage and sees me watching and gives me a wave. Interesting night.

I just wish they would invite us locals in to the party once in a while.


they do mike
clean up and severs/cooks . I like weddings at harkness Sp old mansion and sometimes great toons into the late night . and drucken ladies wondering to the water and asking if Im fishing . No im .........

You should have picked up the bass by the little fins on the side and danced across the lawn with it...
Decked out in your modified Korkers, and fine fishing regalia, you would have made quite the entrance

So bring your laughter
And your gamefish too
We gonna celebrate, and party with you...

Joe, you seriously need to get out of the house some more.

Late at night, body's yearning
Restless night, want to be with you
Someone's playing in the garden
So enticing, he's sure to take a bite
I don't know what's come over me, yeah

She's as heavy as a Chevy
Pure excitement, misled
When she touches, can't resist her
I'm a puppet when she's playing
She's outgoing but I love her so
Misled

So I'm saying now

Baby baby, what's your claim to fame
Got me out of bed, heard you call my name
What's this crazy place you want to take me to
Tell me, what's the price if I go with you
My heart, my soul, my love
Is it the goal?
It's a thrill then I will
Be misled, be for real

Thought I knew her, this lady
Opportunist, misled
Always searching for adventure
Like Pandora's box, misled
And I don't know what I'm gonna do without her

Baby baby, what's your claim to fame
Got me out of bed, heard you call my name
What's this crazy place you want to take me to
Tell me, what's the price if I go with you
My heart, my soul, my love
Is it the goal?
It's a thrill then I will
Be misled, be for real

I've got this feeling and it's blocking my way
But I love her just the same, just the same
Oh yes I do

Misled, heard you call my name
Misled, what's your claim to fame
Misled, said I would understand
Misled, with a bomb of broken venus
Misled, not a word is said
Misled, baby, that's your name
Misled, what's what's your claim to me
My heart, my soul, my love
Is that goal?
It's a thrill then I will
Misled, won't you be fo real**

Baby, baby
