So the plan was to forgo doing shows for a while in preparation for recording, but we were asked to play Kochanski's Concertina Beer Hall on November 19th. This will be another show with our good friends, The Hullmen. For those not familiar with Kochanski's, this is a place on 1920 S. 37TH ST that up until about 3 years ago was predominantly known as a polka bar.
For those of you who have followed me over the years, you may remember my time with a band called TomorrowsYesterday. When I was with that band, we played our first show at Kochanski's, and I believe I said something along the lines of not playing there again in the foreseeable future. This was due to a "dueling band" concept they were using where we had gotten use of the 200 watt house PA, and were made to set up in the front window of the place (one of us actually had to stand in the front doorway of the place), while the other band (a cover band) set up in the back with their MUCH MUCH BIGGER PA.
Well, times, they have a changed, and Kochanski's has come a long way. We've been informed that they have a much better house PA, and the place has gotten quite a bit of attention. We look forward to playing there, and hope to see all of you there, as this will most likely be our last show of the year.
