Tonight was a unique night in the history of Junebug. One day a long time ago, Dustin mentioned to Tony that Junebug should play "against" Fed By Doris. As many of you may know, Tony plays in both bands. Tony talked to Dan and Jer and it was arranged somewhat last-minute.
The show opened with a soundcheck by both bands playing Bob Dylan's "Knockin' on Heaven's Door." Afterward, a coin was flipped and Junebug won the toss. We decided to go first. But then it was discovered that Tony's vocal mic was not on, so Dustin went to fix that while Fed By Doris opened with "Is That What You Think of Me?".
We then alternated songs back and forth and had some great stuff happen. The lights were set in such a way that when FBD played, the lights were on them and we were in the dark and vice versa. There wasn't as much trash talking as some people may have expected, and the mood was pretty light. In fact, Dan played bass with us on a lot of tunes from the darkess of the FBD side of the stage.
When it was done, we all come together for a "communal" version of "Peanut Butter," a Fed By Doris song that worked well with all of us together. It rocked better than any other performance of it to date. Of course, after that we rocked it to the Next Episode and finally experienced Da Bomb. Again, it was a totally rockin' version of Da Bomb with a full minute long noise fest at the end.
Anyone who missed this show, missed a good show indeed.
Tonight was one of the final shows in the OLD stagespace at the Rooster. For those who are not aware, the Coffee House is expanding into the old cardshop next door. The wall is torn down and there's plastic up where the old wall was (you know the one with all the artwork on it AND the one behind the stage with the Jesus picture and the clock...they're all gone). The stage has been moved into the new area already so we set up the "outdoor" stage in the old place and set up Tony's drums there (he used his BLUE set tonight for the first time). Dustin and Anthony set up in front of the mini-stage and we actually had more room than usual.
