No Bar of Soap at Bar of Soap
Last night LS played at of Soap in Dallas, pretty well rested from our
day off off gigging, we arrived at the legendary hole in the wall -
apparently this is where a lot of famous bands got their start like
Butthole Surfers - part Washateria part bar. The most interesting
place by far? Maybe. Funny thing was running into an old music mentor
of mine, from an old organization called girls and guitars back home.
Of all placess after her 4 year hiatus I run into her at bar of soap
in Dallas. She hugs me excited to see me but not so excited that we
are playing at that establishment. I give her one of our CDs and we
exchange information. She says we can play at much better places in
Dallas and that she is going to school to be an entertainment lawyer.
She suggests places for us to play in Dallas. She leaves and calls us
before our gig and tells us to not take any drugs if anyone from that
bar offers, she is concerned about Ledaswan. Itsa sweet gesture, and
I'm looking forward to reconnecting with her as a more established
artist since the girls and guitars day where I honed my songwriting
and performance skills. We have a kick ass show at bar of soap
regardless and so happens that a writer in Dallas catches our show
( he is there to interview a recently traded hockey player there) and
he buys two of our discs and gives me his card. We end up not getting
payed at the end of the night leaves jaime pissed. We go to jack in the box
later that night to get some eggrolls, I usually don't ever eat fast food, but
this road trip is an exception because of our different schedules. The lady at
Jack in the box forgets one of my orders and Delrick is nice enough to give me
his food, he eats fries and eggrolls instead. I think he was just too tired to eat
and he falls asleep right when we get to Amanda's Aunt's house, we bust open
the beer that we had left over from the night before. Stay up talking about touring
again with Manda, David, and Jaime, and how much is going to suck coming home
and going back to our day jobs. We are all having fun at this point and glad that it's
barely Tuesday night, or technically Wednesday morning. We head back to Austin
today for a show at Trophy's in Austin TX.
