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 />
