Lemme tell ya...I've definately earned my nick-name WRATHMOM on this tour. Last night at THE B-SIDE...I began the Trooper telling the Maidens "Stand Back Ladies" and I waved that sucker soooo freaking frantically, I took out one of the lights overhead and the bulb broke loose and almost shattered all over MiniMurray. Luckily she was able to dodge it in the dark.
But that's not the best part. Later some jack ass grabbed the mic in front of MiniMurray's Marshall Full Stack (yes the Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifyer took a dump) and starting rocking out and singing with it like some bloody Karaoke star...I think he was messing w/ one of her pedals too and knocked over our 22 Acacia Avenue sign w/ the Eddie head...so she grabs the PVC pipe which held up the now de-funct Eddie head...wielded it like a baseball bat and said to the overzealous jack-ass "DON'T YOU TOUCH MY SHIT" and started swinging the pipe at him like a crazed MiniMurray that she is.
CLASSIC!!! All the securit was up at the front of the stage creating a human sheild blocking all the moshers. The stage was low. We had all HARD CORE bands open for us and the Promoter brought a sound guy who had never run sound before so the whole show was 2 hours behind, and most of the mic inputs in the monitors were reversed and we could barely hear our cues for the first half of the show....and the fans were very engergized and agitated by the whole thing....still Spokane had a very good vibe...eventhough they kept showering us w/ beer and plastic cups practically electrocuting Jojo.... still the beer shower felt good. I just ducked.
We are looking forward to the Spokane show tonight at Hoteez. We will actually play our entire set tonight including Rime of the Ancient Mariner....and the stage is large and high so peeps will actually see our normal show...
Stay tuned for more tales.

But for the rest of the world, the digitals were with a Sony Mavica, pretty much an antique these days, no mega pixels. The 35's were with my trusty 20 year old Canon T-70.
