T Minus 3..2...1... and we have lift off.
For those that were there at the near sellout debut of Almost Astronauts, it was a special moment. For those that missed it, well there was only one chance to see us first, but there will be another chance to see us second. Just make sure to get tickets early. The Club was filled to the rafters and the band was set appropriately enough against a backdrop of stars. The crew took the stage and wasted little time bringing to life the faceless tunes that had haunted this myspace page for the past year. Eyes widened, heads bobbed and the communal realization that all were witnessing the beginning of something special permeated the atmosphere. Fighting through pre-flight jitters, the lads tightened up and rocketed through a 50 minute set punctuated with dynamic intensity that left all wanting more. When the final chord was struck in the song New Mexico and the dust had settled, it was universally felt to be a great launch. Afterwards we moved the entire party across the street to the Iguana bar to toast a night of fun had by all.
Thank you all for making our debut such a success and we look forward to many more awesome flights in the near future. For now it's off to the studio to record some new material. Please look for us on itunes over the holidays.
Peace and Prosperity, AA
