The band played so often at the Crystal Palace that everyone thought the band members lived in Tombstone! After Desert Fire folded, Elana played out with a few other bands - Exit 303 (Benson), Ghostriders (Tucson), and Cornerstone (Green Valley) - before joining The Rainy Daze Band. Tonight it’s the follow-up single, first issued in May of 1967 under the title Fe-Fi-Fo-Fum and later reissued around August as Blood of Oblivion. Later, when Steel Rose changed to just Country music, she took up bass.Įlana was a member of the Desert Fire Band for 13 years, playing all over Tucson and Southern Arizona, at a variety of venues, including RV parks/resorts, private parties, and clubs. Which was a shame, as The Rainy Daze had a lot more to say than merely Acapulco Gold (their big claim to fame). She then did lead and backup vocals, and played rhythm guitar, with a Country and Classic Rock band called Steel Rose. She began singing and playing professionally in Tucson bands in 1987, with ‘Quest’, a new age folk rock originals/covers band. She has also been singing since she was a child and made her debut performance on cable TV while in grade school. She started playing cello in grade school, and over the years has performed with various orchestral groups. Summing up, great.Elana Rose, from Minneapolis, MN, has a classical music background. The voice acting is on point, one can really hear Tress MacNeille's versatility here. ![]() So does her chemistry with Buster, and Madam Gotcha Grabmore is a villain to relish. My least favourite of the three is probably "Bunny Daze", but it is still funny and clever and Babs sparkles. "Rent-a-Friend" is probably the segment closest to the feel and style of the old Looney Tunes cartoon in the golden years. 187 likes 4 talking about this 10 were here.

The Rainy Daze (Denver) The group formed in the mid 1960s - Tim Gilbert penned their big hit That Acapulco Gold along with his C.U. In a chemistry that fondly reminded me of the old Looney Tunes, such as the chemistry between Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam (except of course Max is not as hot-headed as the latter). They are both delightful, especially Buster paired very amusingly and always coherently with Montana Max. Buster and Babs are two of 'Tiny Toon Adventures' best characters, certainly two of the funniest and most consistently written. The energy is constant and "Rainy Daze" does get brownie points for making things entertaining and interesting with and out of household chores, that is not an easy thing to do when people like me find a lot of it mundane while feeling satisfaction after finishing. The stories for all three segments are a lot of fun and compelling, the most eventful being "Fur-Gone Conclusion" with also the most conflict. Dialogue has the razor sharp wit and wackiness that one expects for 'Tiny Toon Adventures', "Rent-a-Friend" is full of it. The theme tune has never lost its irresistible quality and the music itself is dynamic with the action and full of character, very like the old Looney Tunes characters. Especially in "Rent-a-Friend" and the whole character of the Cruella DeVil-like Madam Gotcha Grabmore (what a name). The animation is colourful and has some lovely background and character expression/reaction detail. It serves this purpose quite well but the story is not the most inspired of ones and the wit and wackiness seen in the segments being introduced are not quite as evident in the wraparounds. The RainyDaze branding stamp is highly touted as the gold standard for which others services strive to achieve. It is at its weakest during the wraparound linking story, its sole purpose being to introduce each segment so that there is a clear connection between the three segments. All three of the segments ("Rent-a-Friend", "Bunny Daze" and "Fur-Gone Conclusion") depicting different ways of what the characters do on these type of days are enormous fun in their own way and make things like household chores and getting rid of pests fun and not tiresome. Luckily "Rainy Daze" not only makes rainy days interesting, it also makes for great entertainment. "Rainy Daze's" story though, while easy to relate to when reading about it, did have the risk of making something that can be mundane not interesting. It is especially difficult to not identify with Babs if household chores are things you'd rather not be doing and want a way of getting it done faster or more fun (raising tentative hand here). Being somebody who doesn't always know what to do on a rainy day and not having much incentive to do much when those days happen. Part of me knew that "Rainy Daze" would be easy to relate to, not just to me but most people.
