ALRIGHT, PART 4 OF THE WEEKLY!!  LOTS OF SHOWS!!  YA KNOW?  HA HA!  HERE WE GO......

 

     SEETHER AT THE MADISON THEATER IN COVINGTON KENTUCKY.

 

LEAVING.  WELL, LEAVING IS ALWAYS A TREAT WITH MY FRIEND RACHEL.  SHE IS A TRUE ROCK CHICK IN EVERY WAY, BUT SHE HAS HER OWN TIME/SPACE WORMHOLE CONCEPT OF LEAVING ON TIME!! HA HA!  ANYWAY, I FINALLY GOT THE GIRLS IN THE TRUCK.  MISS BRANDY LEE AND THE AFOREMENTIONED RACHEL, (BOTH BARTENDERS AT CADILLAC JACKS), AND THEIR FRIEND AND MY CO WORKER STICK.  (HEATHER).  OFF WE GO WITH ME THE D.  D.  WHAT A CONCEPT!!

 

  THE TRIP.   AFTER STOPPING TO PEE ABOUT 3 TIMES ON THE WAY DOWN I-75 WE ARRIVE IN COVINGTON KY.  NOW THE NICE THING ABOUT KY. IS (BESIDES DRIVE UP LIQUOR STORES) IS THAT YOU CAN SMOKE IN THE BARS!!  SO AFTER A MEAL AND SOME SHOTS, OFF WE GO TO THE MADISON...

 

VENUE.   NICE.  SMALL, BUT REAL NICE.  THE FLOOR WAS REAL CROWDED, BUT THE UPSTAIRS BALCONY HAD REAL NICE TABLES AND CHAIRS TO SIT IN.  AFTER A STINT ON THE FLOOR FOR THE BAND THE RED, I TOOK BRANDY LEE UPSTAIRS SO SHE COULD SEE A BIT BETTER. (SHE KINDA SHORT, BUT SEXY SO IT'S OK!)  I MUST SAY THE SOUND WAS VERY GOOD UPSTAIRS TOO.  IN FACT IT MAY HAVE BEEN JUST A BIT BETTER UPSTAIRS.  NOT AS BOOMY.

 

CROWD.    PACKED AND KNEW THEIR TUNES. MET A COOL KID THAT WORKED AT A LOCAL RADIO STATION AND HIS FRIEND.  THEY WERE REAL COOL, AND I DIDN'T SEE ANY TROUBLE ALL NIGHT.  GOOD ROCKIN CROWD.

 

THE BANDS.  THE RED WERE REAL GOOD.  GREAT LIVE VOCALS AND HARMONIES.  REALLY ENJOYED THEM.  A NICE OPENER FOR SEETHER.  CROWD LIKED THEM ALOT TOO.  AGAIN GREAT VOCALS.  ALMOST A DUEL LEAD VOCAL THROUGHOUT MOST OF THE SONGS.  GREAT SOUND FOR THE BAND.

THEN OF COURSE SEETHER.....  ROCKED.  TIGHT, COOL LIGHT SHOW.  BUT MY ONLY COMPLAINT WITH THE LIGHTS WERE THEY DIDN'T REALLY LIGHT UP THE BAND.  BUT THEN AGAIN IT WAS MORE OF A "MOOD THING".  THEY JAM, AND THE LIGHTS JUST ADD TO IT A BIT.  LIKE FLOYD, TOOL, ETC.  GREAT SOUND GREAT GUITAR SOUND AND VOCALS.  THE CROWD KNEW  ALL THE SONGS AND IT WAS FUN.

 

WHAT SUCKED.  ALMOST THE SAME SET AS ALL THE SHOWS I HAVE SEEN RECENTLY WHERE THEY WERE OPENERS.  THEY ONLY ADDED 2 SONGS TO THE SET, AND BOTH OFF OF KARMA AND EFFECT.  I WANTED TO HEAR SOME MORE OFF THE NEW RECORD.  AND THERE WAS NO ENCORE!!  HELL EVEN WE DO AN ENCORE!!  AND AGAIN THIS WAS THEIR HEADLINING SHOW, SO I EXPECTED A LITTLE MORE MUSIC.  ANNNNNNNNNNND, THERE WAS THE FLYLEAF ISSUE.  THEY CANCELED DUE TO THE SINGER BEING SICK, SO HEY, JUST A COUPLE OF MORE SONGS TO FILL THE TIME?  YA KNOW WE PAID THE SAME?  OH WELL..

 

THE FLYLEAF ISSUE.   THIS WAS ACTUALLY A BIG THING.  NOT TO ME AND RACHEL, BUT BRANDY AN STICK WERE ONLY GOING BECAUSE FLYLEAF WAS GOING TO BE THERE!!  WE KEPT IT HUSH HUSH FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS BECAUSE I KNEW THEY CANCELED BECAUSE OF ROCK ON THE RANGE.  BUT THEY FOUND OUT ANYWAY (RACHEL CAN'T KEEP A SECRET!!  HA HA!)  SOOOOOO, THE WHOLE WAY DOWN AND BACK FROM THE SHOW I HAD TO PLAY THE FLYLEAF CD.  HA HA!!  HIGHLIGHT DID INCLUDE BETWEEN CINCI AND DAYTON ALL THE GIRLS SINGING ALONG TO THE TUNES.  LIKE MY OWN PRIVATE SERENADE!!  HA HA!  THEN ONE OF THEM PASSED OUT. !!  HA HA.

 

     GOOD TIME, YOU CAN SEE PICS ON OUR MYSPACE PAGE, ALONG WITH A WHOLE LOT OF OTHER PICS FROM SOME OF MY FOLEY'S!  LATER YOU CUTIES!!
