Tonight we performed with Duke Tumatoe at the Roof Garden Lounge and Sky Room in Moticello, Indiana. They have on of the goofiest load-ins I've seen. But hey, it works. Two of us stayed downstairs and two of us were up to use the outside elevator lift. See the picture.
As soon as we hit our first note, massive fireworks began going off right behind us. They continued to explode until our third song. This venue overlooks the lake, and it's open-air, so things like fireworks and bugs become factors in your playing. We played Duke's songs while people broght up requests for "Sweet Caroline" and "Happy Birthday". It was a fun gig, but once again, it was almost 5:00am before I got home.
