We had our final rehearsal last night. Why three days before the show? Gretchen has to fly to Detroit for business and won't return until 5:00pm the day of the show. Fingers crossed for airline efficiency that day! In other band member news Larry has come down with some sort of cold-like thing and is resting at home today...good thing we have a couple days until the show. Hoping for a speedy recovery!
Anyway, I think we have a pretty entertaining set worked up. Hopefully we won't be one of those opening bands one hopes gets off the stage quickly! ;)
We're in the middle of producing 60 Pindral Live CD-R Samplers to giveaway at the show. It's a multi-media disc with both audio and video tracks on it. The audio tracks are new mixes from our 9-20-07 show at The Oriental Theater when we opened for Blue Oyster Cult's Joe Bouchard. They are soundboard/matrix mixes. Think they turned out pretty good. We'll have T-shirts and caps for sale too.
Yesterday we found out we can load-in early Thursday if we want so we hope we might get to help Fish load-in and maybe get to sit in on Fish's sound check. One concern we have is we have a lot of gear and since we're the support band we might be rather cramped on stage. I'm sure The Fox Theatre folks are used to this kind of situations.
Oh, a self-proclaimed prophet in Texas just predicted that Thursday, June 12, 2008 will be the end of the world. Hopefully that won't put a damper on the show. ;)
