'It’s kind of full circle again': Dallas band Tripping Daisy reminisces on past, hints at possible future, ahead of reunion show
DeLaughter even remembers what the Factory's ceiling looked like in the Deep Ellum music scene of the '90s. Looking up at it now, he says it's one of the only things in the space that hasn't changed in the past three decades. “We were young and raw and flying by the seat of our pants to do the shows we did,” DeLaughter says as he continues his trip down memory lane.A ticket stub for Tripping Daisy's Saturday, February 12, 1994, performance at The Bomb Factory.
The current Tripping Daisy lineup includes original members DeLaughter and bassist Mark Pirro, along with fellow Dallas-sprung musicians Nick Earl, Dylan Silvers, Bryan Wakeland and Philip Karnats. "They’re in the back of our minds while we’re playing all of these songs," Pirro says."It’s sad that aren’t around and that we can’t do this with them, but I’m fortunate and thankful that we still have enough members and the health to get together and do this."
Fans who appreciate the musical spontaneity Tripping Daisy shows are known for are also likely to get their fix, both DeLaughter and Pirro say.One thing fans can anticipate is that Saturday's show will honor the band's past. In fact, DeLaughter says, 30 years’ worth of Tripping Daisy merchandise will be available for purchase at the performance.
