091022 - High Noon Madison
Set list, practice notes, pictures, video and show info for Oct. 22, 2009 at The High Noon Saloon in Madison
with The Melismatics and Soul Shaker
Practice Oct. 21, 2009
Scott was on vacation in Spain so Eric asked Kevin from Fever Marlene to fill in on drums. Two weeks before the show Mark messed up his wrist, we think while working on a washing machine at his house and was unable to play guitar. So he learned all his parts, one handed, on keyboard. Eric picked up the slack on a few of the songs playing guitar but for the most part it was a double keyboard show.
These notes are from the night before the show practicing at DNA Studios in the main room.

Show Notes
Audio of this show was recorded. We were the opening band out of the 3 on a Thursday night and during the first couple of songs there were about 25 people there, including a group of women in the front that were having a good time. One had a very "distinctive" voice. And because of the mic placement in the room she can be heard over the music on these songs, until more people started to show up. Which I kind of found amusing listening back to the audio.
