The Dregs Renaissance Show – A Primer

If you have never been to a Dregs show before, it may be a bit confusing your first time. There most likely will be some chaos, loudness, and maybe some humor. Let me help you understand what we like to call… ‘entertainment’. First off, we have fans, and they RULE. Because they are Dregs Groupies, we call them ‘Droopies’. Totally makes sense, like Tim says. They like to pay us for songs. Our going rate is $5 a song. That is almost a dollar per person in the band, so you’re getting a deal! Our tagline line is, “for […]

Droopie of the Month: July Edition

Greetings Droops! This month we celebrate the sensational, remarkable, phantasmagorical Chris ‘Mom’ Arneson. Chris insists people call her mom, and we are honored to do so! I met Chris when I was but a fledgling Dreg, scared and alone in this world, and she gave me encouragement and compliments galore!

That year, that first time at fest, that first Dregs show, changed […]

This is either the best idea ever or going to be a mark of shame like the scarlet letter. I want to start doing a blog on here for *drum roll* Droopie of the Month. What is a droopie, you ask? Well, it’s a mish-mash of the words ‘Dreg’ and ‘Groupie’. This gold nugget was around before I joined the band. In fact, here is a video from the old Dregs Documentary that has Tim … being Tim, I guess. I may or may not have recorded that blip with my phone. I’m just that tech savvy, and by savvy […]
