Friday, we played in Spokane, WA. At 8:00 we called a punk venue called the Cretin Hop. (Bootlegs below)
Friday night, instead of sleeping, we piled into the van to drive to Polebridge, MT for a July 4th party we'd heard rumors of.
Saturday, we partied in rural Montana with some friends from Missoula. Notable events there:
River surfing. Someone tied a surfboard to the bank of the river. We all took turns trying to surf on it. Dave, lacking clothing that would not get swept down the river opted to do so naked. We forgot to take pictures, but it looked like a much less majestic version of this:
Dave also tried to throw the van keys into the river. Fortunately, he missed by several inches, and we weren't stranded in Poleridge.
The drinking Frisbee game. It involved throwing Frisbees at empty beer bottles and drinking. Good times.
Music. A local band called "7 Smart Fellers" played pretty decent "jug band" country pretty much all day.
Today, we abandoned Gene with some Missoula friends so that Dave and I could come to Canada and visit some family. We'll get the tour back on track in about 4 days when we meet Gene in Missoula again.
Here's what we played in Spokane:
Total Eclipse of the Heart - We played "It's a Good Thing" first but forgot to record it. Is it ironic that our radio single is the song we have the fewest recordings of?
The Adventures of Cristobal Pt. 2 - How does the octave jump sound? I think I'm keeping that!
Fat Kid Emo Pants - It was kind of a punky venue, so we got right to the punky music
Happiness - It was kind of a punky venue, so we... played our soothing love ballad?
Karate - We're like Jackie Chan in that movie where he was his own twin, NOT the one where he teams up with Chinese pop stars to fight vampires.
