Future Islands, Tron Valdez, Death Set, and Adventure Show

(me playing bass with Tron Valdez)

Went to a show at the Spazz in Greenville (which apparently these days the only place for music besides one house). Tron Valdez came from Raleigh, and I got to play bass during their set! There's a photo above. Now, I'd never heard the music from this band, so I had no idea what I was doing. It sounded pretty good, though! Mike and Chris from Tron Valdez are really fun, and I'm pretty psyced to be recording with them next week! We've got three days to do do two songs. I think it's gonna go real well!

The Spazzatorium Galleria is a pretty cool venue. Jeff Blinder runs the place and is always looking for good acts to play. It's definately a worthwhile place to stop on tour!

Now the player is up and working.

Were you just improvising on the bass? Or what?

I want to be out on the road with you, having fun in, like in our old "Car Sanity" days. Sounds like you are living la vida loca.
You should swing by Oakland and record us doing something!!!!
Peace,
Ben

Yeah.. It was kinda like a dance rock jam. I was really confused, but I think the crowd really like it!

I'd love to come out to Oakland! I just have to find enough people out there to make it worthwhile. Also, I'd have to drive and not fly. i don't know how that would work...
