Hi Stephen, it was good seeing you again!
Well I kept myself busy that evening at the merch table warding off some
VERY strange individuals. Must have been the blue moon.
To pick up where Stephen left off,
I-94 was the weakest act of the night. Their track on the IPO cd is one of
my favs but live they were a big disappointment, very generic. They had a
fairly large fan base at the show. As one person put it, this what is
being spoon fed to the masses. That pretty much sums it up. The Waking
Hours put on really rocking set. Playing mostly tunes from their last cd
and a few new ones. I really enjoyed this set. The evening ended with
Rembrandts. Very jangly and great harmonies.
I'll be posting more later about several of the other shows and some of the
cool cd's I picked up........time to get some sleep
