A couple months back, a friend from NC called me in search of help for his band. They were in the midst of booking a diy tour and looked to me for help in Michigan. I jumped at the chance to help them of course! My feelings was what seemed like long roller coaster ride of stoked, frustrated, worry, stoked. It didnt seem like a Bay City show would be possible so I asked Nick Fonzi to help me find a house show for them in Ferris. So Josh, Matt, Kyle and I loaded up the Dodge and headed to Big Rapids. The story ends with a house bursting at the seems due to a hodge podge of drunk college kids. People were jumping off the roof, chugging/punching bags of wine, screaming ccr covers, and stealing cider and Applejacks(me). Did the cops end up shutting the party down? Totally. All the bands played so I didnt give a shit what happened after that.
I have this really accomplished feeling knowing I was able to help throw a friend's band an exceptionally good show. Ive never done anything that hands on before for the most part. Helping with the music community is really important to me. I feel like I proved that to myself a little this weekend.
The rest of the weekend has consisted of straight chilling which is exactly what I want. Cupcakes, Dominoes, movies, good stuff in my opinion. I had gone and seen the new Christmas Carol last night and was not impressed. If its an animated movie, Id really like to see a little more... animation. Now, Im going to be playing the role of the big brother and go watch my sister play some basketball. I hope my dad is there to yell at 13 year old girls he doesnt know. That guy is awesome like that.
