I had a blast seeing Minibar.
My brother and I got there a little after 8pm. It was nice to find
parking that was close by and free! The place was kinda empty when we
got there so we just sat by the merch table. Everyone seemed to know
each other (as this was advertised to be a private party).
I didn't do much talking tonight overall, but I should've taken the
opportunity to speak to Simon Petty who visited the merch table twice.
That British accent of his kills me! I saw Malcolm Cross running around
as well.
The opening band, Memphis Radio Kings, certainly fit within the
atmosphere of the Tavern. Some slight rock twang. They weren't bad.
By the time Minibar
got on stage the floor was pretty empty. My brother and I opted to
lean against the brick wall. No one blocked my view really except the
occasional band or dj or someone carrying stuff out the exit door by the
stage. Unfortunately, during the middle of one of Minibar's
songs a young woman tripped over a line on her way to the exit and fell
flat on the floor. How embarrassing! I didn't see her for the rest of
the night, but I hope she was ok.
Being where I was I had a pretty nice view of all the guys including Mal
who was just fantastic on drums. At times I thought his arms would fly
off, but they didn't. I took a few photos (as were a few others) but I
haven't had the chance to look at them yet. Hopefully some were decent.
Here's the setlist:
1. Retrospect
2. Choked Up
3. Breathe Easy
4. Fly Below The Radar
5. Wide Open
6. New Mexico
7. Ask
8. Sheer Volume of Traffic
9. Somebody Down Here Loves You
10. Unstoppable
11. CAB
12. So Long Soho
13. Six Foot
*sighs* I can't wait until Thursday to see them again with WAZ!
