The Do-Over

Polaroid thanks to Al Myers

What a “doozy”! The July heat finally came through and kicked us all in the ass as the sangria (actually all drinks) seemed to go down much more quickly this week at The Do-Over. An early visit from paramedics proved once again its wise to get hydrated with the clear stuff (no, not vodka) before and during your arrival at Cranes.

With the heat means more sweat and the guest DJ’s surely added to that. Early resident styles from Haycock into a mind exploding selection from Andy Votel brought us into the jam packed madness we’ve come to expect week in and week out. Big thanks to Aussie’s Nick Toth and DJ Sheep for building the rootsy funky dancefloor vibes, followed by slippery classic soul from Mayer Hawthorne. Do-Over favorite J.Rocc arrived just in time and I’m sure you all can’t disagree. Finally, one of our favorite genius musicians Jeremy Ellis had everyone picking their jaws up off the floor following 90 minutes of live madness.

Only a couple days away, we do it again large this week. You all know to trust us with that by now. Enjoy the rest of the week and we look forward to seeing you stumbling around with us on Sunday.

What’cha Wanna Do? Do-Over!

Jeremy Ellis

We are saddened to announce the recent loss of a good friend to The Do-Over Family. DJ Primo of Brazil recently passed from complications due to pneumonia. We would like to extend our condolences to his family and friends. In 2007, Do-Over was quite fortunate to have him bless us with his presence when he DJ’d with his good friend DJ Nuts. In his honor, we would like to share his set. RIP DJ Primo.

WARNING: Crane’s Tavern officially has their liquor license. Four years and millions of gallons of sangria later, The Do-Over now has a full bar. Mondays just got a whole lot worse.

They say summer is over… yeah right. The Do-Over redefines the seasons and last week was proof. As football took over the TV’s and the full bar at Cranes reared its ugly head, we pulled off another extraordinary day of music and stumbling like only we can do. As Haycock disappeared for the first few hours celebrating a Bills opening week win, Aloe ‘Cuica’ Blacc made his DJ debut as he kept the early-goers moving. Next up J1 rocked an extra diverse set of all things smooth. DJ Drez came through for his first ever Do-Over appearance; dropping that worldly rough vibe we all love him for. Hip-hop history book cover queen, Spinderella followed suit with an extended set of party rockin jams covering all styles. Finally, the most recent transplant from The D, Jeremy Ellis (aka Ayro) did an impromptu live set that will forever go down in history. He pulled out the drum pads and recreated beats like nobody has ever done before, banging away with his elbo, hip, and chin all the while in key. It was a sight to see and left folks w/ their jaws on the floor.

Yes yes y’all… The new and improved Do-Over welcomes a FULLY STOCKED full bar this Sunday… Bloody Mary’s? Margaritas? Oh my oh my… Do we need to say more? Lots of special guest DJ’s this week and some big birthdays… Arrive early to avoid frustration.

Whatcha’ Wanna Do? Do-Over!
