We had a friggin blast at the Underground in Mankato last weekend (the locals shamelessly refer to their town as "Kato"). We'll be back. Here's some backstage and performance footage, along with clips of the Jammin' for Jenny benefit we played the weekend before:
So, haven't updated this in a while. Got kinda discouraged about posting our vids when I received a threatening email from Facebook saying I was possibly infringing on copyrighted material (which I may or may not have totally been doing, as I included background music to some of our vids... because we're not that interesting by ourselves) and my account could be deactivated. I'm back to posting more vids from the Michigan tour, so check out our FB page to see the new ones. If my account gets deativated, well, fuck it. I spend too much time on there anyway.
Anywho... saw a cool show at the Fine Line last night. Rocco DeLuca. Dude plays a dobro, normally a southern country/old school blues instrument. Very cool to see him go to town on this thing and rock out. Here are some highlights:
Back on March 6th-8th, the Subsidies rented an RV and took a road trip (some might call it a "tour" - some might not) up to Marquette, Michigan to play a few shows at Up Front & Co.
Over the next two weeks, I will post a video clip each day, chronicling our adventure.
I'd like to thank the academy, Matt Wangsness, my beautiful wife for her undying support ("What's reverb..eration?"), and maybe Jeff Worden on a good day.
Go to www.reverbnation.com under the charts section in the left column. Set your focus to "local" (make sure your location is set to somewhere near the twin cities) and the genre to "rock" and you'll see us at #4!!!
Laura had congestion issues at practice last night: Oh, and I'm not allowed to make fun of Dave online anymore, so if you see an absense of Dave-centric material on any of our websites, now you know it's not for lack of material.
Ah hell, one for the road. Comment on this blog post with the funniest caption for young David and we'll play 2.5 seconds of whatever song you want at the next show.
