In 1980 the Boyz with the Noize released a double live album recorded at Tipitina’s called Work Done on Premises. 34 years later they are reuniting again at Tipitina’s. The three shows are dubbed, “Work Done on Premises.”
Tickets, which are most likely going to sell out nearly immediately, go on sale at 10 AM on line only at the link above.
Although the first reunion was not a full show, the band played two nights last January, and are slated to come back together January 16–18, 2014.
Since breaking up, the members of the band have remained active. Keyboardist and bandleader, Ed Volker has played a number of shows, but has remained true to his plan to never get on an airplane again. The furthest he has traveled is Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, which is about an hour from New Orleans.
Lead guitarists Dave Malone and Camile Baudoin, along with drummer Frank Bua, have played numerous gigs both locally and on the road as Raw Oyster Cult, Fishhead Stew, and the Alternators.
Bassist Reggie Scanlan has toured widely with his new band, The New Orleans Suspects.
The Suspects have released one studio and one live album. Volker has been positively prolific, releasing three recordings made in his home studio.
