But I love the stage...so you's makes yer choices.

That was a night or day. That is the only one I never came to a conclusive answer to. |

Turns out it was two sets, and he went on at about 2am! Finally got home (which was right down the block, actually) as the sun was coming up.
Where did you play, btw?

Not recently, thank goodness (I'm getting a bit long in the tooth for that sort of stuff), but sure, plenty of times. Somehow, the lead singer and horn players always found a way to miss that party...  |

Yeah, you're not too far from me. I'm right next to Elmhurst Hospital (the place I mentioned is right off Roosevelt).

The guitar player swore he would back the trailer up against the garage at his house. Instead, he went to his girlfriend's apartment, fell asleep and the whole trailer was stolen with everybody's equipment in it. |
