Imagine
Spinal Tap but American (Cincinnati, Ohio, actually). Now imagine
it performed by Canadians
doing bad fake Ohio accents.
(Oh, and EVERY SONG has the word "Rockin'"
in it)
Dave on the floor being dramatic
Dave scooting on the floor between my legs as I take a picture
Then he scoots past me and scoots between this guy's legs
Dave was everywhere
I
can't believe how well these guys played the crowd
Some
guy suddenly goes nuts and starts Rock'n - I think he thought they
were serious (look at Johnny and Dave laughing)
Johnny takes off throughout the club with this Rock'n flag, then
runs outside and does a lap on Pike St. - during the show
- while Marc was out there calling for a cab - he almost died laughing
and the
cab operator's going "Hello? Sir...?"
Then Shane broke a string and borrowed Dave's guitar
They tried that for a while but....
Jason helps play a new song called "broken string" while
the
sound guy from Neumo's across the street sets up Shane's guitar
Shawn tries to keep the
crowd's attention
Shane at some point singing under the bench
This may have been the scream that left
people clinging to the ceiling
After
the show we went to Frites
and ate a medium AND a large order of frites until I felt all of the
salt absorbing my insides. Mmmmmmmmmm it was worth it though. Then
we pranced back and forth across Pike as the bands packed up and I
heard that some of the guys would be staying elsewhere that night,
so I was all "K, so check ya later bro" or whatever.
That was the last time I saw both Dave and Shawn ("Shan").
They got rides back to Vancouver before I could say goodbye. Dave's
stuff is still at our house. Every time I see that electric cord by
the washer (that he used as a belt) I want to bend down and cradle
it.
HAHAHAHA no I don't. I'll miss those guys though. It was quite the
January.
