Big Daddy's -- success!
Friday, 16 July 2010 15:42The turnout for this show was huge. Bigger than I've seen in a while. THANK YOU to all who came out to support us. I was nervous doing the show without Donnie on drums. We got through the set, though. There was some dancing, and because of the awesome sound man I was able to drown out most of the mistakes I was otherwise painfully aware of. Terrence was a sport, though. He stuck around after the show for Ethan's set and hung out with the band a bit.
Ethan's band did not have the challenges ours did, and despite playing to a smaller crowd managed to attract a handful of dancers to the floor. His set was tight, and I was a little envious. You win this one, Freckleton... next time you won't best me so easily!
People who came out and had not heard us before were unaware of our temporary lineup change and enjoyed the show. For that I am grateful and can call the show a success. That didn't stop me from immediately taking full advantage of the 2 free drinks per band member Big Daddy's offered. And a mai tai. And some quesadillas. An old friend of mine told me a long time ago: "If anyone asks you how your show went, it was AWESOME, got it? No matter what, it was awesome. Nobody in the audience hears the mistakes as loud as you do, if they hear them at all." We are an awesome band, even on an off night.
Our next show is a benefit for Children's Hospital at the West Seattle Eagles Club Hall on August 28 at 7pm. I should have a flyer to post soon. Mark your calendars and come on out!
