Sometimes, when you see The Cartwright Brothers, you
may notice a few "extra" Cartwrights. Congratulations! You’ve just
encountered a spotting of "The Split Pea Band." The Split Pea Band is very
similar to Robin Hood's band of merry men in the fact that they’re very
merry, seldom seen, they expect their leaders to pick up the bar tab, and
they rarely wear underpants. On any given night, you may see anywhere from
one to four extra "Peas" on stage. Although each "Pea" could easily find
work with any band in the area, they seem to show some sort of mild
allegiance to the Cartwrights, proving that an open bar tab is worth more
than self-worth any day. |
