Last night at Toad’s Place was so fun. It’s one of America’s historic mid-sized clubs, one of those clubs that can have a wall of fame that actually has names you recognize and regularly listen to on it. We pulled out every once of energy we had tonight in honor of the mojo-filled stage. Besides, just imagining one of the smudges on stage being a drop of Keith Richards’ sweat was plenty of inspiration. We had a bunch of Tucker’s friends there tonight, it’s always good to see them. They bring so much energy to the show because they know Tucker so well, and he feeds off of them. They really do put a bigger smile on his face.
Toad’s stage is a large, wide stage with plenty of room to run side to side, but not much room front to back. It makes a for an interesting look for us. We’ve always had trouble getting our drummer Taylor’s face in view, but this stage let us set up in a way that you could see all of our pretty faces. It was tight front to back, but it was a fun having all that room side to side.
‘I definitely knocked over a mic or two last night, haha. But that was a blast’ – Jon
We played very well last night, which feels good knowing all of Tucker’s friends were there. Dave and I (Jon, bass) ran around the entire time, Blake (guitar) melted faces all night and Taylor (drums) was a little fireball as usual. That was by far our best show we’ve had so far.
‘It was a huge stage, we really had the chance to move around a lot and it was a blast to run out into the audience. Also a bunch of us were able to go downstairs and check out the hot tub in the green room! The energy was great and it was a pleasure to see so many friends and familiar faces groovin’ to the tunes.’ – Tucker
This tour has been going really good so far, and last night was awesome. But today we’re off the Manhiem, PA to play at a LaserDome. Yes. Laser tag LaserDome. I’m so excited to play laser tag all night after we play. So if your in PA today, swing by.
