Hideaway Lounge held their 2nd Annual Fish Fry and it was packed inside and out. Fresh fish caught and prepared by their cook and all of the Open Mic Hosts performing along with some of the regular performers all day long. Very cool event. Nathan and I stopped in on our way to Nic's Video Shoot and hung out a little while and threw down a couple numbers.

After Bum Fight I headed back over to Hideaway to run through some stuff with my band. Seemed to be a slow night over here as well, but there were still a few people to play.

Yesterday afternoon Dustin from Hobo gave me a call and we worked out the issues, so Bum Fight is back on. Crowd was minimal, which is expected after I took it down from all the websites and had already posted I'd be somewhere else, but we made do with what we had and had a fun time in the process.

Monday nights Open Mic sessions. I canceled out Bum Fight due to non-payment. So it will be no more. For the time being we are still doing the Unwired Records Open Mic at Hideaway though. First set I was in a bad mood from someone disrespecting me, so I started playing a bunch of rude shit to piss him off. After that some friends came out and I ended up having a good time. Jammed with a new drummer for the 2nd set. Hope to get him in to try out for upcoming gigs.

Sunday we held another Unwired Records Showcase at the studio. Mostly local acts, but we had a featured touring act this time by the name of Morgan Lindley and it was awesome. Real old school country music. His guitarist Cassidy got up and jammed lead on a few songs of mine as well.

Saturday we threw The 100 Musician March. It's a nice community type show. Started off with seminars to help people out including things like how to tune a drumset on through to figuring out how to fill out those copyright forms to protect your music. That was all in the afternoon, come evening we had the live music. We had a good turn-out for how last minute it was and hopefully it's something that becomes a reoccurring show.
