What a crazy day yesterday!

We all met up at 1, and went to the mall.  Andrew and Scott bought white pants (and attempted to convince me to as well).  I found some nice shiny sunglasses, which by fate came in handy later.  After eating, we ran through the set, and then it was almost 4.

After a short break (aka showering and changing) we loaded up the cars full of about $13,000 in gear and drove eastward at 5:45.  We were finally set up and soundchecked at 8:30.  Bill went on at 9:15.

Everyone played their best.  It was spectacular!  I will post pictures later.

Bringing everything home and a Perkin’s trip after, it was 4 AM before we got to bed.

Twas the night before blast off;
And all through the town,
Not a creature was rocking,
And the ones that were, had to “turn it down”.

The boxes of packed CDs awaited,
In the spare bedroom downstairs,
With the hope that many friends,
Would soon be able to share.

The band was all ready,
And armed with new gear.
They practiced their last practice,
As blast-off drew near.

Now getting some well-needed rest,
Just chilling inside his home,
Mike doesn’t have time to
Write a good poem.

Rich Albertoni gave us a lovely write-up in the Isthmus. You can read it here.

We want you to join our celebration as much as you do!  So to help things along, we made this handy video.
