The Big End of the Year Party was tonight! On the outside stage were Rob Drapeaux, Plaid Moon, Clöwn, and December Stars. Inside were Junebug and Fed By Doris. Junebug took the stage at about 10:25 after a brief interview with Bruce Likness regarding his movie "Quadman" set to premier tomorrow night.

We opened with "Raise Your Voices" and moved on the classic "Cake". It has become tradition for us to ask Bruce Likness to sing the third installment of the Cacophany Trilogy. Tonight, he fervently screamed, "See my movie! See Quadman!" Ah, Brucey..We love you.

Bad MammaJamma was one of the high points of tonight's show. We had hippies dancing in the isles and clapping along. Thanks to Lennie Davis for giving it his all on the dance floor.
We closed tonight's set with two of our jam-worthy songs, "Like a Dream" and "Bumblebee". Tonight felt good. We had a GREAT crowd who insisted we play "Downtown Liquor Store," so we did.

Special HUGE thanks go to Josh Trumbo who was so kind as to give Anthony a ride to Aberdeen from Fargo in the event of unfortunate circumstance.

Tonight marked the first anniversary of our first show. It was at the End of the Year Party 2000 (May 6) that we made our first actual appearance. We wish to thank Dan Cleberg, the Red Rooster Coffee House, Chesky's (RIP), Danny Ch., Bryna, Heather, PJ, and everyone who has supported us and made this a successful year for Junebug!
