Show Wrapup

October 2nd, 2003

Last night's show at Babylon was great and full of the unexpecteds. There were a lot more people there to see us than I expected, Hawaii was a lot more rocking that I expected, and there was one less Tangier than I expected.

Hawaii was a full band, not the 'pop duo' I was expecting. There were really good, and created a real nice vibe in the club. The Tangiers blew the roof off the place with their energy, though they were missing a guitar player. No confirmation as to why, but there were rumours circulating that I dare not put in writing.

We were first and went on early (around 10). We played fast and furious for about half an hour. We had decided before the show that we would blaze through all songs with little or no stoppage between them. So we did that, which is hard for me due to my inability to shut up. The only mark on the set was a broken bass string at the end of the last song, which made the bass unplayable for the last 8 bars of the grand finale. Beyond that I felt we were tighter than ever.

Hopefully we gained some new fans, as our music is pretty similar to the Tangier's music. Here's the set list:

Message
Perfect Silence
Paradise
Runaway
Let's Get Faded
Eddie
The Sleuth

Our sights are now set on Rocktober 24th, when we light up the Babylon stage with Full White Drag and The Cobras. I'm so excited for this show that just writing about it has caused me to pee in my pants.
