"E" String Snaps....Dan Snaps...
Show goes on!
Last night was our first "official" show at the Lava Lounge. First and foremost, we here at The Phonies want to thank everyone who came out and supported us. I would guestimate that there was about 30 of you or so, and that's not too bad for the first time around. Anyway, all things considered we're happy with the performance.
We're all still in shock that Dan broke a string in the best part of Miss America, but these things happen (many thanks to the guitar player from Belting who lent us his axe for the rest of the set). We learned a valuable lesson: always have two guitars ready to go. That little fiasco threw our concentration/momentum temporarily, but I think we salvaged the remainder of the set and put on a decent show.
We were recording the set for our FACTOR application, and with some crafty editing I think we'll be just fine. We'd like to thank Zeke Myers for scoring us the gig, Mike Our Faithful Business Guy for being his regular business guy self, and Dan Preston of "Danosound" for his services in recording the show. Of course, we must thank Belting and Mindz Eye for having us.
And perhaps most importantly, thanks to Lindsay Fields and friends for agreeing to spend the first few hours of her 19th birthday party taking in the gig.
For the time being we'll be writing,
rehearsing and doing some business stuff. Hopefully we'll have another show A.S.A.P., and as soon as we have a
date we'll let you know.
The MP3's of the show should be posted by the end of the week, so keep on coming back and checking the downloads section. Thanks again to everybody who helped make last night so much fun.
Word to all of your mothers.
MIKE IS BACK!
Dan, Brandon and Jeffers would like send out a big "welcome home" to Mike Our Faithful Business Guy.
Mike just got home after being in Italy for two months, and we're glad to have him back (the business stuff is
a bit out of our league, hence the lack of activity for the past little while). Now that we have our unofficial
fourth member back, things should pick up for the rest of the summer.
Don't forget to sign the guestbook.
