It was an easy drive to San Antonio, traffic wasn't too bad and I was
parked behind the Mix in no time. There was some sharing of gear so I
only needed to bring my bass and some cables. Easy!
I got there and the Hormones had about four songs left. Tom was (is?) playing bass with them and this was his first show. I thought it sounded pretty good from the outside. According to Tom I heard the best part of the set, I think he said "The first part was shitty". I'll have to take his word on that.
Next up was our old friends the Guillotines. They now have THREE guitar players with THREE Marshall half stacks! Talk about a load of sound, they were supersonic.
We were last. The side of the "stage" (there is no stage, you stand on the floor at the Mix) we were on had the stickiest goddamn floor in the world (only a little hyperbole here). Tom and I were leaving chunks of shoe behind. I tried to spend most of the set in front of Lance and away from the glue trap floor, but every time I sang I had one food stuck...
I survived the set/floor, helped with the load out (after all I brought barely anything) and made the drive back home. An easy Saturday night.
