Fun night of music tonight for Lance's Save The Boobs benefit show. Full band electric sets inside, acoustic sets outside. Things were definitely on a tight schedule, which made for literally running in and outset after sets.

Photobox ImageIn my mind, Strange Young Things stole the night. Rich was with them on drums, and everyone looked very at home on the 910 stage. Somethings were as usual. Like standing at the front of the stage equating to taking your life into your own hands. [smile] It was a disappointment that Glodie didn't make a spectacle of the stripper pole. But we all know that's only because his mic lead wouldn't have stretched that far. [smile]

Photobox ImageVelvet Elvis and Violet Wild put on some nice, short acoustic sets, despite the technical issues encountered. I'm not sure what the problem was with the outside PA, but it wasn't good. With that said, I think that dealing with it blowing out added something to Norman's performance.

Photobox ImageWe were a bit disappointed not to see Emmett, but all the same Andy and Scott did a nice set. Surprisingly with no technical issues (I think they were the only acoustic band not to be plagued with the PA from hell issues). And did fine on our Next Time request, although after making the request, it was apparent that Scott would have preferred us to have picked any other song. I lay blame on being put on the spot to come up with a Scott Howard song. [smile] All jokes aside, I don't really think of Tramps songs in terms of "Emmett songs" and "Scotty songs", so it made it tricky!

All in all it was a fun night. Pretty chilly for this time of year, so I'm glad I decided against shorts. And by the end, combined with all the standing last night, it was pretty nice to get home and off my aching feet!
