Power on

For those of you who aren't in St. Louis, you missed the storm of the century last weds night. It was so bad that I've heard rumours there was a tornado touching down on telegraph rd. I wouldn't know since I've been without power since last weds. The power company finally got power restored here last night, but I didn't wait around. I took off and went to our lake house friday night, after we rocked the fuck out of Columbia at the Sapphire Lounge.

Making this short and sweet, since I've got loads and loads of laundry to be done, the Columbia show kicked much ass. Barrett from 100.1 The Buzz contacted us to say he'd been playing out track Sugar and Spice regularly on their local show and it's been recieving good feedback. There were around 50 people at the bar I'd guess, and The Sapphire Lounge has definately cleaned up a bit since it was The Down Under Bar.

Decadent Nation was the fucking shit! Tim's friend and singer Colin, from Decadant Nation, was a fuckin stud. This guy can sing, scream, and he's a showman. He works the stage like Mick Jagger or Scott Weiland. They were good, real good. It sounds like we are going to be hitting Columbia more often now, because this little road trip was very successful.

All in all, it was a great show. We had much applause, a loud crowd and the weather was perfect. Didn't even need the a/c after the cool front came through. Everyone in the crowd was either dancing, or cheering, or getting down in some fashion. It was awsome.

And now only four days late: The Colbert Corner

Your power just now came on? Yikes. Just how bad was that storm? Did a tornado really touch down in Oakville?

We don't get cool storms like that here...just a buncha rain. I kinda miss it actually. Go fig.
