Coffee Night...

So the group of guys I play music with got together the other night and discussed playing a set at a coffee night here is town. I actually got excited about playing out of our regular Saturday venue (our church). So tonight I got my things together and headed to the local BCM. I should have expected the scene. Young, college kids filled the building. This was somewhat of an "open mic" type event so there were a few sets before us. When my wife and I arrived, there was a couple of guy rapping to a track. I was completely surprised to see a friend of mine up on stage. We used to work together at the Lifeway store in town. I knew he did Hip Hop, but I had no idea he'd be there. I have an album of his, It the single greatest Hip Hop CD I own. (that not really saying a whole lot, but it really is a great CD) But after him (and Mr. A-1 Bold) This was a Hardcore hopeful guitarist. The kid had guts getting up there just rocking out, but he need to work on his fundamentals. There was a singer-songwriter type with long hair. He was solid but nothing amazing. A girl played the guitar and sang, she had potential. Then there was Luke, who played electronica originals. Lastly it was our turn. All in all it was fun. It was the closest thing to a gig that i've played in years. Fighting a sound system brought but some "fun" memories. Me and the misses got back close the 11pm. I can't remember the last time we stayed out that late. Oh well, Tomorrow is another day... of work.

Till Then.
