So last nights metal monday was a great way to kick off the 2005 series at Cumberlands. Our Illustrious Jonny was rehearsing for Jay Leno in LA, (watch for him and Jay performing with Howie Day tonight, January 4th) so we borrowed Chris McLernon (formerly of Saigon Kick) and he rocked it like the pro that he is. I think my favorites of the evening were Gretchen doing Magic Man and Evan singing Dr. Feelgood with Benji (lunch) on drums. To all the whiners who didn’t get to sing: 1. there were lots of folks on the list. I did the best I could. Sorry. 2. FUCKING GET OVER IT!!! I’M THE EMPEROR!!! The person (people) you should really be angry at is the Charleston City Government cause they’re the ones who made the bars have to have everyone out at 2AM. Otherwise, we’d play till we got to everyone on the list. If you really really really are dying to sing, get there early and sign up on the first set. I’m usually able to get to everyone. Also, sign up for a song that no one has sang yet. That helps. Keep your eyes out for the Hairaoke homepage that Evan’s working on. We’ll be doing Sunday nights at Wild Wings in North Chuck, too starting January 9th. Should be a hoot.
By the way, I finally got some batteries for my remote control. But I haven’t really had any time to watch TV.
