Where the heck were you for the Redwood City show?

Skott, that's an awesome poster you guys put together!!!

Where the heck were you for the Redwood City show?

Redwood City is tough for us up here in Marin with kids and sports, etc - but we'll be rocking St Patty's Day. no way you can make it?

 

[Sicy]

No , but I plan to make it to the Friday show in San Jose.

Just got the call from our agent with the pre-sale ticket numbers and I am absolutely stunned at the response. Guaranteed sell out tonight! Thanks for your support, everyone! They will release tickets at the venue, but online sales are shut down as of this morning.

Thanks again!

[zuropa_fit]

What? No stories or pics yet? Everyone still sleeping off the hangovers, I guess.

 

[Sicy]

Probably because me and Justin werent there. We are picture whores.

a rocking good time! we left after the 2nd set, so missed the new material, but the 80's and 90's were great. man that place gets HOT. love the belly dancer on mysterious ways. Bonalmost strolling through the mezzanine was a crowd pleaser. crowd was definitely a U2 crowd. met Ally and Jojo from Susanville I believe - real tour veterans and nice ladies. great night.

 

[Sicy]

Ohh who is the belly dancer? I dont think I've ever seen one at a ZS show.

 

[skott100]

We bring Greta out for belly dancing on special occasions. She's fantastic. She even showed up to dance after being in a scary fenderbender on 280 yesterday. Such a trooper.

What else can I say... Great show. Fantastic crowd. It was packed for most of the night and I was glad to hear that some people who couldn't get in were able to get into the show after some of the crowd went home early. Everything seemed to work out just perfectly other than a few little glitches that only we would notice.

I have to give Bonalmost huge points for going the extra mile to welcome the people who hadn't seen us before and the way he changed his whole attitude from set to set was just astonishing to watch. You'd think I'd be used to it by now, but the way he just nailed all the mannerisms and small details I felt like I was watching R&H one set, ZOO TV Sydney the next, and the David Letterman performances at the end of the night. I've been in a band with him for 7 years now, and the dude still surprises me.

So this one will go down in the books as a top to bottom amazing success. Thanks to everyone who came out to share their St Patrick's Day with us! We'll see you again sooner than you think...

^ to the crab!

Great seeing you again, Sicy!
Yesterday was a blast!!!

And Skott, let me save you some work, an unobstructed view of the stage is better, so no need to go back to the garage!

I already saw those videos!!! (Thanks Sicy!) The guys sound great! I can't wait to hear the new stuff live!

 

[skott100]

Wow Sicy! Great videos. It's nice to hear it the way everyone else does. I think those two songs are coming along quite nicely.

I know it's the wrong thread and all, but thanks to everyone who came out Friday. The parts of the night that I can still remember were awesome!
