Much Rock Was Had

Well, the show was a freaking blast. Great turn-out, the sound was great, the band played their guts out and I just had so much fun. Thanks to everybody who came out. I can't wait to hear what you guys thought of it and look forward to seeing some of the photos I know were being taken.
It's back to the studio tomorrow for me, so I probably won't have much time to write more for a day or two, but I wanted to let you know that my interview in Relevant Magazine is up now, and I thought it turned out really well. Jason Boyett, who wrote the Pocket Guides I talked about last week, wrote it, and he had some great questions. If you get the time to read it, I'd love it if you could take an extra minute or two to leave a comment on the article and let them know you appreciate the coverage of my record and encourage them to cover the Square Peg stuff, as well. That would help out a ton.
Thanks again to everybody who came out from Nashville (or Chattanooga, or Alabama, or Georgia, or Iowa...) and I hope you had safe trips home. It meant the world to be so supported tonight. Thank you so much for that.

A great time was had by all.

Andy, I had more fun last night than I've had in a very long time. It had the same excitement that I felt at EP's "Scarce" release show. The concert was just amazing. Amazing.
I love the CD and am thrilled that this community was able to have a part in helping get it completed.
As I try to get past my heartache of missing the show, I will say that the interview was great! Good to see people catching on to good music.
Wish I could've been there.... the corporate monster picked me up and shipped out to Richmond, VA for a couple days. Ah well. I'll just find the show for free on some bootleg site later and send you no money for it. That's ok, right?
Here's my post about last night, including a couple of pics:

Anybody know if bootlegs are available?
I'll give my right arm or first born for one
I don't want anyone's body parts or children. [Eligible bachelorettes are another story entirely.] Hope to have my boot up soon. I didn't get in early enough to feel like I could ask to have a SBD, but my recorder does decent with AUD.
I am currently not caffeinated enough to begin to mess with it. I might accidentally delete it, and that would be a bad, bad thing.
I wish I could have been there. Tears are dripping down my face.
i join the chorus. the show was amazing. the band sounded great. and your guitar moves were very rock n' roll. i'm looking forward to geof's recording!
It was totally worth the drive from Iowa. I'll be sending you those elevator pics.
I have tracked the recording. I have converted it to AAC and FLAC. I will be sharing it very soon ...
