Paul's Music

During the summer of 2004 Coney Hatch got back to together with original members Carl Dixon, Steve Shelski, Dave "Thumper" Ketchum, and Mike Hall (Killer Dwarfs) for 2 reunion concerts on two continents. They played in Oslo Sweden at the Sweden Rock Festival and in Kingston Ontario at Cocamos. I was there for the Kingston show and did a review.

I was at the show last night in Kingston (August 13th, 2004). The lineup was Steve Shelski, Carl Dixon, Dave (Thumper) Ketchum and Mike Hall on bass. The guys really started to rock out after they got warmed up. The only down part was the number of people who showed up. I would guess less than a hundred. The band did come over to the merchandise table right after the show and signed my cool Coney Hatch T shirt “two shows, two continents”). I asked Carl how Sweden was and he said it was a blast. Said the folks from Sweden said “We wait for 20 years for you to come!” Carl said he had been there before but the band never made it over there. The set list in no particular order was: (what I can remember). BTW, The Kings opened the show (Switching to Glide).
