I have a preconceived bias against a club like the Joint. I feel it is one of those 'sceneless' clubs, where bands think they will 'make it' by booking a 'showcase' where 'industry' will attend. We were pleased to be playing two nights in a row though.
The stage is very high, and this is great. The sound man was direct and to the point, and delivered FANTASTIC sound on stage.
This was the first show incorporating the Micro Korg. It made me feel like ditching the bass altogether and just playing keys.
I closed my eyes during the bridge of Sea Legs and when I opened them again most of the crowd had left. They were there to support the previous band.
Some of us lingered to watch the final band of the night, a thrash/metal band. They all looked the part except for their bassist. Not only did he stand there mortified, staring at his bass most of the time, he was wearing an bright red Incredibles shirt and baggy jeans while the rest of the band looked street/metal.
We played with A Flavor Of Love, Creature Company, Great White Buffalo and The Arsenal.
