Same Day Service - Old Journals

Sept. 20, 2001 @ Room 710 in Austin, TX
w/ The Down Dirtys, Baby Shaker and The Endz

The show tonight was very last minute. Our friend's band UTI was supposed to play but had to cancel, so we took their place. It was the first time we played 710...it had really good sound(I could hear my vocals perfectly) and a great air-conditioner. A few people came out to see us on really short notice, so that was cool. Lisa's sister Julie was in town, and we wanted to show her around 6th St., so we didn't really hang out to hear the other bands. We had the option of getting paid, or donating our money to the United Way and we chose to donate it, so it nothing else, we played for a good cause.

Sept. 13, 2001 @ Emo's in Austin, TX
w/ Meanest Capacity, Greyline and The Victory Drive
So, I've decided to start keeping show journals. I don't know if anyone will actually read them, but I think it'll at least be cool for me to go back and read about the shows we played. Tonight we played at Emo's, which pretty much guarantees a cool show...which it was. Alot of people came out to watch us, and we had a lot fun playing. I think the best part was during Bobby No Morals when I looked out in the crowd and saw a bunch of people singing along! Tonight was also the debut of my new Marshall cabinet, and our Stars n' Stripes T-shirt.
After we played, Meanest Capacity was up. I didn't get to see much of them b/c I was helping Maggie break down her drums, but what I did hear sounded pretty good. Greyline was next. I'd seen them once before and they didn't really sound like I remembered, but I liked them. They were tight and have a couple very catchy songs. The Victory Drive played last. They are really good, and everyone who didn't stick around to see them definitely missed out!
Thanks to Joe for selling merch and Megan for driving up from San Antonio.
