Wednesday night at Nick & Eddie was a lot of fun. Big surprise. I really enjoyed both the Batmen and Marijuana Deathsquad sets. Dave Matters sat in with MDS this week. Lots of friends checked it out for the first time. What up Joe and Chastity. About 3.5 hours of sleep was had.
It was sort of fitting that I caught the 21 to go record Heiruspecs at Central last night. I got there at 6 to set up and doors opened at 7. At 7:30 Mayor Chris Coleman gave them a top notch introduction. I don't think people realized that they were in for a two plus hour Heiruspecs set but they threw down like I've never seen before. The set featured a wealth of first class special guests. What probably impressed me the most was the fact that Peter, Sean, Josh and dVRG never left the stage. What's the word? Oh yeah, unfuckwithablestamina. Wow. Respect to Ryan for mixing sound and to McNally Smith for providing the sound system. After things wrapped up at Central Joe and I headed over to Sauce to catch Puppy Dogs & Ice Cream, Kristoff Krane and Sector 7G. Having been to Sauce before and knowing that it's no place for a mic stand Ross was cool enough to let me patch out of the soundboard. The crow's nest the FOH is in there is pretty wild. I don't dislike Sauce as much as I used to. The staff were all pretty stand up folks. Another 3.5 hours of sleep was had.
Here's to not having to go to shows immediately after work. Have you seen any live photography from the Twin Cities music scene? Then you've probably seen some of Adam Bubolz's handy work. Adam turns 30 today and has booked a pretty chainless show at the Turf featuring Tight Phantomz (Chicago), STNNNG (Minneapolis/St. Paul), Tanks (Iowa City) and a special surprise set from an unnamed band. If you're in the neighborhood perhaps you'd like to stop down and thank him for all of the great stills he's provided us with over the years. Late show? Possible nap after work? Thank you god of naps.
