First band I've ever been in that actually played over Memorial Day and we've got three 1-nighters:
- Friday: Small-town bar, ~ 30 mile roundtrip
- Saturday: Small-town street dance (our first of the season), 240 mi RT, hoping for good weather as our spring so far has been abnormally windy, cold and wet.
- Sunday: Regional resort, 150 mi RT |

We play there every Memorial/labor Day sunday, its always a blast. I was supposed to do a fill in on Friday, but the rest of the band decided they didnt like each other anymore and broke up last week.
