Oh yeah, I remember that ...

(Photos: Above: Matt, Jeff and Dan at Victor's in Seattle, 1993. Below: An all-ages show in Yakima the same year.

Jeff brought in a shoebox full of photos the other night for us to look through before rehearsal. It was basically a photo history of nearly every show and a number of our rehearsals and after hours parties of which we played.


It was completely jarring. We were kids and half of the band wasn’t old enough to hang out in the clubs where we performed. Teague and I spent many nights sitting in a van parked in some alley, just waiting for someone to come by and tell us it was time to play.

And there were a ton of images from the countless shows we played at Adeline’s, the SUB Ballroom or a friend’s house in Ellensburg. The Adeline’s pictures are great because they serve as photo evidence for most people since they don’t remember being there. The $1 pitchers of beer and Jager shots were the primary cause for most of the memory loss issues.

We’ll be posting them to our blog and our Facebook page throughout the weeks leading up to the great big show on Jan. 30. If you have any personal shots that you took during one of our gigs, we encourage you to post them to our Facebook page.

Cheers, Dan
