Show Journal 1999-09-11
Today’s show was unexpected. We got a call Friday night asking if we wanted to play a demo show for a local skate shop on Saturday morning. They said was it was an outdoor show with skate ramps and bands … sounded good to me. So we tracked down Jim (our borrowed drummer from tour), said yes and sure enough by noon the next day we were setting up getting ready to play a show. The weirdest thing about the show was that it was in the parking lot of a National Guard Armory and coincidentally was sponsored by the National Guard. I guess Guard enrollment is getting pretty low if they are recruiting local skaters. Anyway, the show was marginal at best. It’s difficult to be really into your own music when everyone is sitting down and passively listening. It was such a nice day out and with all the ramps and skating it was hard to really pay too much attention to the bands. Still it was fun so thanks to Ollie’s Skate Shop for putting on the show.
