Canyon Inn Review for March 7-8

We had a really great time at the Canyon Inn last weekend. There was only one really obnoxious heckler on Friday night that came closer to getting his ass kicked than anyone ever has at an In Stereo gig. We don't know the guys name but if we do see him again, we PITY THE FOOL!! ha ha, gotta love Mr. T.. Let's just say we don't take kindly to being bitched out at the side of the stage because we're not fitting in with your fantastical delusions of grandeur. The guys main bitch was that we weren't playing simple enough songs. I guess he expected a barn dance type hoedown or something. Believe me, if you can't dance to our song list then you must be one crappy dancer.

Anyway, that was Friday night which was very crowded but had a sort of strange vibe. We still had a really good time though. Saturday night was very crowded as well and the crowd was a lot more responsive which made it the better of the two nights for us. We really pulled out all the stops and were able to play most of the requests we got. It looked like everyone there was having a great time on Saturday night. We had some blond chick from down the road get up and sing Led Zepplin's song Rock-N-Roll with us. She was pretty good but I kind of felt like we were doing a glorified Karaoke show. She was easy on the eyes though. :-)

Tom was sick both nights but pulled it together enough to do a kickass job of singing and playing. He didn't spit up too much blood or anything.

Our new songs went over very well. We played Nothin' But A Good Time, Girls Girls Girls, Sweet Emotion and I Will Follow. We got a lot of compliments on the '80's hair metal. We were actually able to satisfy a lot of requests and the new songs helped a lot with that.

We want to give a shout out to our fans that showed up. Especially Kasie and her crew, Julie and her bunch, Denise and the family, Lori and Eric. I know I always say this, but it is so nice to see friends in the audience. It makes it sooo much better to play. So thanks guys and I hope you all had a great time!!

See you next time,
Matt

In Stereo at Canyon Inn March 7-8

Come see us play in our native land, the Canyon Inn! We should have several songs worked up by then so if you come out, you'll hear us play some things we haven't done before.

Teazers Review

Teazers new concert hall is really awesome! It's got a great stage and a fantastic lighting setup. We had a great time playing with all that room onstage. The downside is they've only had live bands for about a month and instead have been bringing in DJ's to play Hip-Hop music. It's a different crowd and word obviously hasn't gotten out that there are live rock bands on Friday night. Needless to say the crowd was small but those that understood live music really enjoyed it. The hip-hoppers that showed up on a Friday night seemed confused and tended to send text messages on their phones while we played.

Oh well, we'd like to play there again sometime.
