We made the drive through San Saba County and on to Bend Texas to Bad
Bob's Bend Store. We spent the night in San Angelo. Not only is it a
shorter drive, but you can get a hotel room for cheap and it won't be
covered in mud. Midland motel/hotels are terrible. Way over priced and
usually nasty.
Bob's is run by Bob. It's out there by the Colorado river north east of Austin. He has a little stage built out of reclaimed wood from a church (or a barn depending on who you are talking to.)
The Beaumonts were going to be first, but Troy Wayne's voice gave out on him again. I think it's all the goat fucking. It must make him grunt in a way his voice can't deal with. We are gonna have to start calling them the No-show-monts...
We unload for a quiet set. I'm using one cabinet, no gong for Lance and Davy left the 4 X 12" in the van. Easy. We played for an hour and someone in the crowd asked "Are Y'all gonna take a break?" The only answer to that is "Is that a request or a question?" We took a little break then hit them with a few more, loaded the Freak and headed home.
Another successful weekend behind us.
