The gig on Saturday night went all right, the roads were snowy as hell and not too many people were there, but it was a nice second full-length show despite all our colds. Thanks to the folks that did come out and said kind things.
I broke my A string on the second last song (“We’re Not Friends”) and decided not to play guitar for the finale (a cover of “Search and Destroy” by The Stooges) instead of re-stringing for one song. Then while I sang without playing my hands got bored and I pulled on the broken A string and I guess cut my finger open and I saw a pretty decent amount of blood coming out of my hand.
Anyway, it was probably the most rock and roll thing in the history of me and it all ended when I was given a band-aid after the show. I’m sure Iggy Pop would have done the same.

it’s not proper rock unless you bleed on stage. the next step is to cut your hand on a cymbal that you smashed, or something like that… and bandage it with a hot groupie’s shirt.

Too bad I couldn’t make it this time. But sounds like a great show. Bleeding on stage, very GWAR of you.

Wow, i just heard your song Dirtbag on that Toy Story: Requiem trailer, and pretty soon i downloaded your whole CD. Cannot wait when you guys play near me, no clue when that will be. I live in Indiana, so probably never.
