80. They're holding their own!

They leave today (Monday the 11th) to go back up north to finish the brief tour with the bands Royal Bliss and Wayland. This past weekend was kinda ridiculous. TWO bands sidelined for mechanical trouble in their tour vans - including us. Wayland lost the whole weekend. So did ACIDIC. For want of a missing hose!

We had a couple of frustrated promoters lamenting how this whole season in that area has been almost cursed! Another cool band, Eve to Adam, wound up having to cancel their whole tour through there. Just one of those things! Just fluke after fluke after fluke. And these are some good promoters. They don't mess up. DAYUM - I suspect the boys might be trying to cook up some surprise for the fans in one of those communities that saw so many of the shows scheduled to come through town get canceled. There are some smaller cities that are not exactly "go-to" places for the bigger bands and bigger concerts and festivals. But THOSE are the EXACT places where there are so many rock fans just almost starving for some great entertainment to visit. Kinda doesn't seem fair. They deserve the Rolling Stones and the Supremes and Elvis and James Brown and Beyonce! They're some of the best crowds in the world! They really appreciate it when somebody comes through town and puts on a great show.

ACIDIC does enjoy going to those places - as often as possible. We are not the Rolling Stones and Supremes and Elvis and James Brown and Beyonce. But our boys do go all out onstage! Even off stage. When they play "Come Together," Michael grabs his wireless mic and leaves the stage and prances around in the audience and vamps with people. Usually, during the chorus, he'll point the mic at some fan and have the fan sing it. It's really great! Lots of interaction.
