Trees - Dallas
So, we played our first real show. A battle of the bands to be on Buzz-Oven 4. We tied for first, but lost in a tie-breaking vote among the judges, so all we got was the money. We put on a pretty good show, I'd say, although we were really sloppy for the most part. Greg and I were wearing sea captain costumes, and Mike wore a "potato raisin" costume, that he now owns. Heh. Mac instigated some audience basketball. And the "woo!" on To Sara pt. 2 went nicely. Mike's bass wasn't working on Flash Man, though, and my guitar was out of tune, so that was a mini-disaster. I'd say the highlights of the set were Greased Jesi and Apologie (which I dedicated to the guys from Chomsky, who were standing in the back).
Here's the setlist:
Flash Man
Greased Jesi, Party of Two
The Holiest Egg Nog I've Ever Seen
On the Road to Nicestacheville
Apologie to the Queene
Gary Busey
Mr. Goodparty. Paging Mr. Goodparty.
To Sara pt. 2
