Heaven and Hell
No this is not about Black Sabbath. It is about the difference between a good venue and a bad venue.We played in Nashville the other night at a place called the Mercy Lounge. Yes we are playing a few small clubs on this tour. First off the crowd was great and very enthusiastic.
Many clubs have there faults. We didn't expect it to be great. What you do expect is some professionalism from the house crew. NOT at this place. These guys could barely blow their noses and chew gum without screwing up. Staying sober would be a help also.
Last night we were in Birmingham, AL and what a difference. Very good equipment as far as the sound and lights. Now it wasn't perfect, but the thing was the house crew were total professionals. This is a place I would recommend going to see a show. Small enough without a bad seat in the house. Great views of the stage from two levels.
We continue to log the miles. We are on our way to Philadelphia. We stopped in Roanoke, VA so the driver could sleep. This gave us a chance to get into a hotel and grab some real rest, do some laundry and other things.
