Picking up the pieces!
Since Saturday we have been seeing folks walking around in a daze! The show at Pinhook left behind some carnage (hangovers).
Special thanks to those who shouted out lyrics, requested songs and shared something with the crowd.
Brainbows ripped The Pinhook up. They have an amazing energy that really knocks people back on their heels. I saw some heads shaking which is suprinsingly enough, a hard task to accomplish. We hope to play with them again soon…real soon! What a great band.
Free Electric State also got some hips swiveling in the crowd and a light show that added to the swirly, groove they had going on. I heard one person state they may have had an out of body experience.
We ate at Salamandra last night. One of my favorite spots to eat in all of Durham! Manuel, the owner was saying how much he loves having The Layabout shows at the restaurant. He was super happy while talking about the shows. When I asked him how everything else was going he told us his wife almost died and she now has to receive dialysis twice a week. Obviously this is bad news for him and it will cost him a Sh*t load of money. So, I was thinking if you have gone to see a show there but not visited on another night or day, you should go. If you are vegetarian he has food for you, if you eat meat he has food for you. I do not think he has any vegan plates……buy a beer, or paleta (Popsicle) then.
Manuel is a great guy that seems to understand and embrace the Durham music community…….let’s pay him a visit and welcome him to the scene.
Hillsborough road in Durham….go check it out eat and drink!
