Hello Fruheads!
What a great show. Seed Cycle Opened first. Great little local New Haven Band. So I got my usual spot stage Mike up against the stage...made some great friends! ( Hi Guys!). The set was the best I've ever seen. Here's what it reads.
Sahara Horseshoes Splatter Sad Girl Lazy Boy Kick in the Ass Sticky Floor ( Improv Jam) Fell in Love River Valley Boo Time Disco Bargainville Michy Saucep'n Pisco Fly Nuits de Reve King -> Green Eggs Love Potion Medley Encores guinea Pig <- New C Album Tune from Mike Darlington Billy Jian Drinking Song
The set rocked. Some of the highlights....Dave had this awesome solo
during nuits...it was incredible. Toads Place is a great hall...but the
place is DISGUSTINGLY FILTHY. Mike said " I went to do my little foot
thing during Horseshoes and I couldn't move it...It was stuck!" and Jian
talking about how he touched things and has now contracted the Toads Place
Virus. The crowd was pretty well assembled by the beginning of the show
although there didn't seem to be a great deal of fruheads there. Jian's
first mention of Toads was the enormous plastic net that separated the bar
from the stage area and made sure to welcome the " drunks on the other
side in the cage"...so the fence became a joke for the night. At one point
Dave made the mention that he wanted some vodka...lucky one of my friends
on the bar side brought him one and asked the sound guy from Toads to have
him tell me happy birthday...but all Dave said was " and to the pretty
lady who gave me the vodka...Happy Birthday!". Overall everyone had a
great time. Jian came and laid on the stage where we were standing for
some of the girls...I don't think I've ever seen anyone melt that fast
before. I had Mike's set list @ the end of the night but one unhappy
little Fruhead who puts a bad name to the rest of us decided that it was
her's. She actually wanted to fight for it and ripped a large circular
hole in it..at which point I took the crumpled remains and threw them back
at her...oh well...there will be others....maybe she'll grow up one day.
Well...must be running...look for my pictures later on...hope that they
came out. Have fun everyone!
