That's right! Over the past two weeks, various members of the band have spent about 8 days in Montana; last night was the first time we played a show instead of just partying.
We hadn't practiced in about a week, yet last night was one of our tightest shows so far. If only the PA had been badass enough to handle all that rock... (You might hear a little distortion on the mp3s.)
It's a Good Thing - Considering this is one of our best songs, we probably shouldn't open with in since we've never got our sound issues ironed out yet. Oh well, I suppose that just makes really good recordings of it extra special.
Total Eclipse of the Heart - You can tell we played this one well because we didn't cut the intro from the bootleg.
The Adventures of Cristobal Pt. 2 - Where's part one, you ask? Well, you see, part 1 isn't as good. It's part of a rock operetta entitled "A Brief History of Canada." Obviously, part one is a low part of the quintet used only to establish plot. (Also, Dave probably would have vetoed it as "too nerdy.")
Happiness - You may have noticed that I'm rambling a lot in the commentary today. I'm not going to tell you why. Suffice to say, listen to that distortion on the synths! Weird!
Fat Kid Emo Pants - Guess who's gotten most into the sing a long part of this song so far:
A. Drunk hecklers in a bar
B. Actual emo kids
C. Dave's friends in New York
D. My friends in Eau Claire
E. all-ages art school crowd
Yup. The answer was B (though the drunk hecklers were pretty enthusiastic)
thE32nd - (8)
Company - Some encouragement would do us all some good, but you're not getting it!
Karate - No, we're not like Jackie in that movie where he worked as a TV chef either.
Share and enjoy
