Ok, so... yes. Ok, now, I'm not drunk per se... but I'm not necessarily sober either... where to begin.
I got to Crash at about 6:03. Why? Because I was nervous and I like to get to shows early when I'm nervous because it gives me time to get ready and stop being so nervous. Or in this case to stress more.
The doors weren't open. Not only were the doors not open, but the bar wasn't open. Tragic! I will not bore you with my 40 minute freak out while waiting for the club to open. I will not bore you with my frantic attempts to contact friends and loved ones to let them know about this show which was the most poorly promoted Stewart show ever. I'm sorry everybody- I didn't even send out an f-ing bulletin till 2 hours before we went on. (Thank you Kristepher!!! :) You life saver you.)
So yes, not surprised that on a Monday nobody wanted to come to a show that they didn't know about and pay $8 to sit around and wait 45 minutes for us to go on. Not surprised at all. :) To all those who did come- serioulsy, thank you. And to those who couldn't make it- I totally understand, please know that my grumpiness is not aimed at you.
We began the evening with a fashion show. I brought 5 outfits, but only tried on 3. And although my sparkly flapper dress won the most enthusiastic accolades, it was my new tank and denim skirt that won the competition. As much as I love the sparkly dress- so hard to play in. So very hard.
We previewed a new song tonight- Guiltless. I'll post up the lyrics later. It's one of my new favorites. (But here's a secret- the new ones are always my favorites... *grin*) And we did a new cover. *hee hee* Which was very fun. I had my own private after party with Jay Green in Brooklyn:
JG: "How was the show?"
Me: "Can I have a drink please?"
Such a good bartender he didn't even need to ask what, he just knew. The mark of a true friend. :)
The good news is that it was fun. (I hope it was fun for you guys too.) The other good news is we're playing again soon. (2 weeks actually) Saturday, August 5th. The Continental. This one is in honor of so many things- triumph and tragedy. Love and... well, you know.
Set List:
