So we sounded awesome right up until the last song. Then BAM! I still don’t know what the fuck happened, but we lost our backing tracks in the monitors. We fumbled our way through the best we could. Everyone pretty much had to go by my vocals to follow the song. And I had to sing going by what drums I could hear in the house mix. Needless to say the timing was off. Oh well..shit happens. Once again reminded of the pitfalls of performing Electronic music live…lol
Glow sounded great! I think Brooke may have not been used to the monitors or something to start off with, but she got on track and sounded great. Their new stuff sounds totally cool live.
Terminal Bliss was a great band and a bunch of nice guys in generals. Cool to hang out with. Unfortunately they suffered
at the hands of the dreaded “St.Louis doesn’t give a shit” syndrome. I mean after Glow performed people just headed out the door. I’m sitting there like “What the fuck!”. I swear not to be an asshole but come on people..these guys spent their vacation from their day jobs touring and trying to build support and interest. Then as soon as they hit the stage
people leave. It’s fucking rude. Let’s not forget to mention the attendance left something to be desired…as usual in St.Louis.
Don’t even get me started on “the scene”…all of which SHOULD have been there. I swear somedays…nevermind.
Thank You to those that got off your ass and came to support local music. Thank You to those that actually stuck around to hear Terminal Bliss….at least you “get it”.
Rehearsal tonight…oh investigative rehearsal I might add…lol…
Later..
