to its longevity.<br />
To celebrate the 35th<br />
anniversary, The Dancing<br />
Noodles played a special<br />
show at the Beverly Arts<br />
Center on Saturday, May<br />
4, in which several previous<br />
band members and<br />
friends played alongside<br />
the group. During the<br />
show, a projected slideshow<br />
showed images<br />
of the band throughout<br />
the years. Additionally,<br />
they showed congratulatory<br />
videos from their old<br />
friends, such as Kevin<br />
Matthews and Steve Dahl.<br />
With more than three<br />
decades under their belts,<br />
the three core members<br />
said they are not ready to<br />
set their instruments down<br />
just yet. To the contrary,<br />
Kammerer said that the<br />
band’s popularity is growing<br />
again. In fact, the band<br />
will be opening for Smash<br />
Mouth at this year’s Chicago<br />
RidgeFest.<br />
“It was super fun back<br />
in the day, but now it’s<br />
even better,” Kammerer<br />
said. “Our opinion and our<br />

thought has always been<br />
that if we couldn’t deliver<br />
the product to the point<br />
that we were happy with<br />
it, then it would be time to<br />
hang it up, but at this point<br />
in time the band is still as<br />
good as we were. We’re<br />
also having a good time,<br />
the people who come out<br />
to see us seem to be having<br />
a good time, so there’s<br />
no point in the immediate<br />
future that we’re planning<br />
on pulling the plug. Plus, it<br />
keeps us young.<br />

us in saying that we’re<br />

job doing something we<br />
love that we completely<br />
enjoy.”<br />
Sarna added, “I say we<br />
keep going until health<br />
gets us. Like I said, because<br />
of the genre of music,<br />
the party band aspect,<br />
there’s not a lot of pressure<br />
on us. The gigs come to us,<br />
and that means these people<br />
want to have a good<br />
time. So, I think we’ll keep<br />
it going for a while.”<br />
