Rochester is Rochester-like

We were in Rochester for less than 24 hours, about 20 hours, actually, and about one hour of that was spent in Henrietta, if you want to nitpick.

The show went well, although it was much more passive audience-wise since there were few University of Rochester students around to be recruited into attendance. About 4 people specifically came to watch us, all the same, and a number of other heads turned. We also did not run into the problem of free vs. paid granola, or me ingesting banana chips hidden in granola this time. My ears did hurt to the point of Dave suggesting we give up Almost Awake altogether, but not to fear, this notion has passed for the time being.

The drive to the Flour/Flower city seems to short now. Just one 2-hour shift each. Since the 14-hour-not-including-stops Asheville venutre, anywhere less than 8 hours is pretty much nothing.

We recorded vocals for Alive yesterday and Also worked a bit on Tuesday. I'll be recording lead vocals for that one either tomorrow or Thursday.

Friday we are playing at Spillin the Beans in Troy at 7pm, and heading over to the Adults-only Harry Potter book release party at Market Block Books. I'm going in costume, which is quite exciting. Now all I have to do is manufacture it and secure some interestingly colored hair dye.

I sign off with a headache, from a cold library, with little left to say.

Oh yes, we're playing at the Cambridge farmer's market on Sunday. That's Cambridge NY, not Mass. I hope i don't end up with my microphone stuck inside a speaker this time.

Goodbye.

Casey
