HonFest 2009 + Gigs THIS week

June 15, 2009 at 6:09 am (Music & Show Notes)

HonFest was a BLAST!. So many wonderful friends came out to see the show, the few tables infront of us were filled, and people started standing around listen to us. One lady actually called a friend on the phone and put it up in the air so her friend could hear us =). Awesome.

Everything went perfect, Meezo & I played the first 3 songs, then Seen joined us and we did 3 Owtar songs. Then Sharief came up and played bass with us for the rest of the set, followed by the lovely Heather backing me up as we did “Whole lotta love”, which was supposed to be our last song, but people started shouting “one more!”, it was flattering. So Eric & John of Umbrella Radio gave us the thumbs up for one more. At this point it was a full rocking band on stage. Sharief on Bass, Heather on Djembe and back up vocals, Meezo on the other Djembe, and I’m on guitar and vocals. It was AWESOME!!.

The weather was wonderful and hot, just the way I like it =), so many people were at the festival in general. We had a BLAST, and everyone had a good time. A lady came up to me afterwards and asked for my contacts, she said we have good music and she definatly wants to hear us again. Sweet.
Needless to say, I was on cloud 9, I kind of still am =).

Thank you so much to all the wonderful people who came out to the show, I really appreciate your support, and I’m glad to hear that we made it worth while for you.

awesome.
