Scoundrels ..10-16-09
Tonight was T love’s birthday so I knew a few people that were coming to celebrate and to bring cake and balloons! I thought for sure this would turn into a drunk-fest but surprisingly it wasn’t. In fact it was one of our better performances and the night went by quickly. My BFF showed up and that was nice since she hasn’t been to a show in a while and for those who stayed to the end, you got to see T Love get Silly-Stringed as a birthday finale! Here are the scores:
Load in/out: 7- the double doors!
Ease of putting up Backdrop: 9- Push pins still in the wall!
Sound: 10- I’m giving a rare 10 because my monitor was great!
Crowd (attendance): 8- 9 the first 2 sets and a 7 the last set. Still a good night overall!
Crowd (enthusiasm): 9.5- dance floor packed all night!
Our Performance: 10- Great night tonight!
Back stage: 6-had to move stuff around in the storage room but it does have a bathroom!
Pay at the end of the night: 10- Thanks LInda!
Food Afterwards: 9- Taco Bell on W150th!
Platinum Horse ..10-17-09
This was our first time here but we had played the Crazy Horse in Bedford a couple of times so we kinda had an idea of what to expect tonight. This was their 10th anniversary so they had food, and balloon drops, ice sculptures, etc. I have to thank Dave Dennis from the Spazmatics for getting us the gig and being there to make sure everything was taken care of…The layout of the Platinum Horse was much better for us as they had a large main stage right in the center where we set up and that gave us a great view of the two set stages that the girls were dancing on! The rest of the details can not be shared in this blog. Let’s get to the scores.
Load in/out: 8- found the back door!
Ease of putting up Backdrop: 0- nothing but mirrors behind us!
Sound: 8- mike had it pumping after he fixed the power problem!
Crowd (attendance): 10- the place was packed!
Crowd (enthusiasm): 9- hard to tell if it was for us or the girls on stage for us!
Our Performance: 9- got thrown off at first because of the PA issue but we recovered nicely!
Back stage: 6-Little room off the ..VIP.. area!
Pay at the end of the night: 10- Thanks Tony!
Food Afterwards: 9- Taco Bell at Euclid and 91!
This Weekend: We’re back on the Eastside with a show at the Loose Moose on Friday and the Boneyard on Saturday! Come out and show some love!
Much Luv,
