This probably wasn’t the tightest show we’ve ever played, but I’m pretty sure it was our best turnout, which was awesome. Plus I think some people showed up early for the other bands, because the place was pretty full. It’s always great to get an opportunity to play for people who have never heard you before. There were a few flubs, maybe two of which were pretty obvious, but the energy was strong and I think we recovered well.

We opened the set with a new piece (can’t really call it a song just yet) that will hopefully evolve into something bigger at some point. It feels pretty good as a 3 minute instrumental, but we’ll see. Last night was also the debut of a new song called Colossus, probably our heaviest one yet. We fumbled through the beginning of the song pretty badly, but at least it was sandwiched between two of our stronger God’s Eye songs, which a lot of people seemed to recognize.

I absolutely love Luna Lounge and I can’t wait to play there again. Many, many thanks to the people who came out last night - there were a lot of first timers and a few people who hadn’t seen us in a year or so, so that was fun. We can’t even tell you how much we appreciate your ongoing support. So keep watching this page and we’ll keep you posted on any upcoming pie-eating contests, sack races, and rock shows.
