Day Of The Dead!

11/1/19
River Dog Outpost
Rome, GA

Connie Sams' birthday is November 2, so she's all about Halloween and DoD festivities.  We're not quite the usual fare that plays at River Dog, but we got it all worked out.  We all dressed up as classic monsters (me, vampire; Alex, werewolf; Adam, King Kong; Levi, demon).  Our good Friends Suitor opened the show.  I'm always happy to use my powers for good, and give another band a spot to play their first show.

There Be Monsters In The Courtyard!

8/30/19
Schroeder's Courtyard
Rome, GA

Finally re-scheduled from the rained-out May date, and on friendlier territory than the rained-out July Cartersville date, we were able to get Zack and Liam (with Jedd) as Venture onstage.

I opened with a short acoustic set:

1. Prologue
2. Fantastic (Existential Crisis? What Existential Crisis?)
3. Saturday
4. Not Yet But Maybe
5. River Trip
6. Too Fast For You
7. That Which We Are, We Are
8. Midnight Afternoon

Venture came out and rocked it with some Classic Rock classics, and they were great!

There Be Monsters closed it out:

1. Digger
2. Mralph
3. Blanche
4. 10,000 Year Clock
5. I Want A New Drug
6. Gittin'
7. Spirits
8. When The Levee Breaks
9. Sewer Dragon
10. Dumpcuntry
11. Stars
12. Starlike
13. Mutant Boy
14. Apothecary
15. The Golden Mole

Still figuring out the PA.  Can't get it loud and clear enough for what we do.
