Post Show Post
I'm posting the review of the Spotlight show on the 25th here so that we can post it where it needs to go later. For now, just enjoy being able to read it with one less click of the mouse-thingy that you currently have in your right hand (or your left for our south-paw fans).
This was the show for new material, as we filled most of our set with...wait for it...new material. Only four tracks from the CD found there way onto the set (Run Away, Drive, Indy and TMB). We also debuted two new songs at this show (Erin's Song and Smile), which were received very well by the large number of fans that we had there, as well as fans of Vago and Civicminded (who we played with). Technically, Erin's Song was debuted back in May, but that was just a rough sketch of what the song looks like now. Lots of very positive feedback about Smile from the people, so that's cool.
We ended the show by busting through three strong songs, and were actually asked to play one more song by Marq Manner (who does the booking for the Spotlight) because the crowd was definitely into us. Much like we used to be into Gap, back in 1999.
