Show Journal 2002-11-23
After 5 years in Portland we finally made it to the Crystal Ballroom. How was it? Put it this way … on a scale of 1 to 10 this show was a 253. Seriously. All four of us agreed it was the most fun we’ve ever had at a show. Our set was so much fun to play I almost felt guilty. The sound was amazing, we played well and the crowd … oh my god … the crowd was so rad. They bounced when we bounced, they rocked when we rocked, they shouted when we shouted and people even crowd surfed for most of our set. Awesome feeling to see so many people into our music especially after playing last night to 20 people! I was kind of amazed at the response because we had people coming up to us all night who had never heard of us before who wanted to meet us, talk music and hang out. Too cool. The other bands? Slick Shoes rocked. Bigwig was outstanding. I wasn’t sure if the Bosstones would live up to their reputation as a great live band but they did. I heard the opening chords “the impression that I get” and I was sold. They were so damn good. Serious thanks to everyone who helped out, hung out and made this such a great night!
