well, we raised money for katrina survivors
which is good, of course. and we played our hearts out to an appreciative crowd of aged drinkers comprising of way too many of our close friends and families. and we did it with a guest drummer michael who appears courtesy of the bouncing souls. beers were drank, bands played, and it was all for charity so that made us feel good. carrying our gear through the rain? that made us feel wet.
so the day started out pretty innocently really. robert spent the night so we had a nice quiet day which was only marred by the dreary weather which reminded us of London in July. We went to borders, shopped for a few books, had some coffee, and before we knew it, it was time to head on back the house for quick preshow practice. Michael got stuck in traffic so we relaxed patiently discussing the absolute mayhem we would be having later that night. after michael arrived and we rushed through the songs (we have some strangely arranged songs!) matt, nathan's cousin and pat helped us carry our equipment into the van and then we were off, running very late of course. got to the club, loaded in and went to have some big beers at a neighboring pizza joint. things started to blur together after that point!
we would like to thank jacquline from the elktones for putting this whole shizznit together (good job!) and the bands and everyone who participated, even if you just sat in the corner and drank whiskey sours.
good times! thank you michael for helping us out.
