LNS: Band Night, April 24

So, last Thursday was band night at Late Night Series. As opposed to our normal laid-back, acoustic, hey-man-whatever style, we had rockin' lighting and full bands and loudness and man-get-totally-pumped-dude attitude. Like, you know, whatever.

If I were to say that the night went off without a hitch, let me tell you, I would be kind of lying. It was like a reality TV show, almost. And not the Tila Tequila kind, either. More like the Apprentice kind. Or the High School Reunion* kind. Up until right before the show started we had (basically) no idea whether or not any bands would be showing up and, if they did show up, whether or not any of them would have instruments. There was a lot of drama but, like all good reality TV shows, things worked out. For the prettiest of us, at least.

The bands that played were Reno Subject, The Bee Team, Everyone Everywhere, and Mercy Blue. There was something for the frat boy, indie kid, emo kid, and tough guy in all of us, respectively. (More like disrespectively, am I right??)

But yeah, it was fun. And Mercy Blue did a terrible cover of a Tom Petty song. It was great.

So uhh what else...

We handed out surveys to everybody. It's a new thing we're doing. We're trying to, like, learn stuff about our audience. Like how they heard about us and how hilarious the things they fill in under "Other" can get.

So far: a friend and not hilarious.

Uhhh...No scrabble this time.

Yeah, I guess that's it. We're having a bake sale this week. I accidentally sent out an e-mail saying that it was last week. Again, my b.



*Because no one watches that show.
