DL: 15 MINUTES TO 40!
Hello good peoples. After a weekend out of town I can finally talk about the MInt Condition opening #2 in Nashville. I arrived early looking for the band to see if they remembered me from the Lexington, KY show. They weren't there, only a sign backstage that read: "Mint Condition Dressing Room". Argh. So after about an hour a get 2 minute, yes 2 minute soundcheck right before the doors open. I don't mind though, only doing 3 songs. I'm thinking to myself, this place a huge, no way it's gonna fill up. After soundcheck I go up into the balcony where my friends who've come with me are until I'm supposed to go on at 7:30pm. Note: It's boring being backstage when nobody's back there but you in a small green room. Flattering, but BORING! Anyway, at about 7:00 I get a call from the show promoter saying some more time is needed and that my new set is from 7:30-8:10. 40 FULL MINUTES! WUT! Well, I figure I'm made for this...prepared I was, and 3 songs turned into 7. It was the biggest crowd I'd ever played in front of, and yes I got finally get to meet the guys, including Stokley! So I say to anybody reading this, always be prepared...cuz 15 could turn to 40 with just one phone call.SEE MORE SHOW PICS
