This show was booked through Fancy Animal Productions. They are a nice couple who seemed to put a lot of care into this show. We played with The Monthlies, as well as Holland Greco.
What made this show special was not the dinner at the Vegan restaurant nearby, but the East-Coast one-legged security guard at the club. He was truly one-of-a-kind. He was dressed in a suit, and walked around on a crutch, and managed to make sure you knew you were in the way every chance he got. Whether it was equipment backstage or your own body against the bar, it was a night full of "Excuse me, can you just move that closer to the wall? We need to keep this area clear" or "I just need you to leave this path open. I'm not trying to be pushy." And yet, he WAS pushy. All night long. Even when things were not really in the way, he would seek out people to move and things to 'correct.' It was a unique and amazing experience.
Being our first show back in many months, we all agreed that we had evolved to a new plateau of live performance. We felt good. We even covered INXS.
