What an amazing weekend!!

This weekend was awesome.
Friday night, I went to the Midwest Burners Meet n Greet Party/Kyrka's Housewarming Party.
It was great fun, and it is always good to see the Burning Crew again!
I hardly drank, which i OK once in a while, and got to bed around 4am. Had to get up semi-early to Pick up BlackLiquid at the airport. I left the house late, (as ususal!) and parked at the wrong side of the airport, and had to run halfway across all the terminals, but I made it to the gate less than 30 seconds before he got off the plane. Sweeeeet! *LOL*

We went around town to two of the record stores, and introduced him, and dropped off a few promo CD's and the like. checked into the Hotel and took a nap. Woke up at 7:50pm, and was supposed to be at Kabal at 8 for dinner! Yikes!! Tore up the place getting ready, and was at kabal by 9. No worries, mate!

The crowd was unbelieveable. Manders opening set was amazing, and BlackLiquid was totally impressed. I guess she had a few of the same albums,and played some of the tracks he had in his set! LOL

Then he went on, the energy in Kabal was just so amazing! People were screaming and hollering. A few songs into the set, people and BL got the groove, and the dancefloor filled up and stayed that way pretty much all night. The only people that were standing were waiting for the bar. I've been to Kabal a few times now, and there are always a core group of dancers, and a bunch of people standing around watching. Wasn't this way on Saturday!!!!! :-)

I got some great footage on the video camera and some great camera shots too. Gotta get the film developed!
When the time came to shut off the music, people were crying "Encore!" and asking for one more song. Awesomeeee!!!!!!!!

We went to Deepfix Record store after, for a little afterparty. There, spoke to a lot of new fans, and had a nice time. Also spoke to John G. who asked us about the possiblity of performing at Wakarusa next year! YESSSSS!!! That was exactly what I was looking for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!woowhoooo

Got home about 7am or so, time is fuzzy then. We rolled, and talked for the next few hours. Slept off most of the day, sunday, got some chinese, and went to bed.

Dropped him off at the airport Monday morning, and returned to business as usual. Wow. Craziness.

The whole event couldnt have gone any better or smoother. Not one single, little problem to report. NOTHING. I've never done an event that had NOTHING go wrong. Fabulous. Thanks and Kudos to Todd from Phocas.net, and Happy anniversary!!
