show was at The Picador (formerly know as 'Gabe's Oasis'), and it was
really good! The guys played well and got a really good crowd response.
The sound was pretty decent.
The line-up of this tour is pretty sweet. Ludo is opening for the first
half of the tour. They're from St. Louis and they bring a unique style
to the tour. The Grad plays second. Our good buddies in The Forecast
(from Peoria, IL) play third. It's always great to tour with them.
Finally, Spitalfield closes out the evening. They sound great and are
definitely ending their career on a high note (by doing this farewell
tour). I would have to say this is the best kickoff show of any tour
we've been on! P.s. I love that the tour is all midwest bands!
There were about 170 people at the show. We did well on merch, which
was a big relief. After the show, we stayed with some friends in
Davenport, IA. The Forecast stayed with us too. Our friends had a house
party. It was great. We stayed up too late and had too much fun.
We got up today and drove to our show in Glen Ellyn, IL (Chicago
suburb). Glen Ellyn is Spitalfield's hometown, so we knew the show would
be good! The pre-sale was like 350!
We're now at the show, and it's going well. I'll give the full update
in the next blog!
