slot available on may 30 (friday night)
(opening for judas priestess)

i should’ve promoted the show better…

roboray had better bring friends…
(or at least his siblings)

i wonder if cheryl lynn will show…
(i know the old man and emilia would never come see a show)

AI said “maybe”

michael anthony will be there
(he’d better bring friends)

nick crowley will be there
(he’d better bring friends)
(and his girlfriend should bring friends)
(or is she pissed that i defriended her?)

we took the stage sometime after 11:30pm…way too late…i should’ve taken the 8pm slot…

setlist:

helter skelter
take me to the river
born on the bayou
hannah montana
timber
roadhouse blues
hell hath no fury
oh! darling
zero

my voice was not in top form…my guitar kept going out of tune…gotta get that fixed…and my tuner AGAIN disappeared right before we were to take the stage…cheryl captured the set but left after 20 minutes…so the latter half was relegated to a junk shot on the side of the stage…oh well…

nick brought his girlfriend and 4 friends
(one of them an attractive young indian girl)
(and three generic dudes)
(they had to leave before our set ended because they had to catch the train back to jersey)

i thought the set was solid…but both cheryl + michael anthony said i was “tipsy” and it wasn’t a good show…roboray and i had been drinking bud lights during the day…and nick bought me a gin + tonic before the show…and i asked cheryl + michael anthony for a beer before i hit the stage (they refused)…i was too broke to afford booze myself…i could only chain smoke…

slot available on june 12 (thursday night)
(opening for “tracii guns”)
(a proto-slash)
