The Young and Stupid
Tonight was Bugger Danny Ch's final show until he comes back from Florida in January. He will be sorely missed. Tonight's show was dedicated to him.

Plaid Moon started out the show with the Young and Stupid following. In a shocking twist that no one saw coming, the band that was billed as the Young and Stupid was us. We decided to open for ourselves as an opportunity to play some more mellow stuff that we otherwise might not play live (i.e. Sweet Nothings, Bother, Chambermaid). On "Like a Dream" Will Brown from The Blue Orange joined us on acoustic guitar. Thanks to him. Rock on, brah!

As we were finishing up the Y&S set, a severe thunderstorm was pulling into town. There was plenty of lightning and rain and many members of the crowd enjoyed frolicking outside between sets and songs.

Junebug started our set behind the big ol' Wolfstock banner playing "Vacation to Oblivion" while Elizabeth Andrews (from Plaid Moon) announced us. When the crowd roared, she pulled it down to reveal Junebug in all our rock glory.

Tonight's show had a good vibe, but it was also a weird vibe. Maybe it was the barometric pressure from the storm, but things seemed odd for some reason. But no matter. It was all good.

Tonight was also the official release of the newest live album, Junebug Live at Wolfstock. We had a good response and a lot of people bought the CD and we signed a lot of autographs.

We wish to extent a special thanks to Anthony's mom who made it to the show tonight! (She wished "To the Next Episode" would have lasted longer) It was good to see her again.

And huge thanks to Danny Ch for always being such a superfan. He'll forever be the Chief Junebugger.
