Tonight was the third or fourth time that I have played at Main Street in Stafford. The venue is pretty good; there's a decent amount of real estate on stage, the acoustics are okay and there are a decent sized built-in audience (always a plus).
I got there a little on the late side (I forgot which exit it was off of 95), but load-in and setup went very quickly. However, as we were setting up, a table full of nice ladies asked me if I would be willing to strip. I declined, telling them that they really didn't want to see me even semi-naked (for their sakes; I'm so white that the reflected light would probably damage their retinas).
We played the first set, and the same table of ladies were hottin' and hollerin', but they had a good time, and that's always a good thing (They actually were nice). The crowd started to empty out during the second set, but then we got some return visitors and new people for the final set of the night.
I managed to play through yet another set of strings. The usual song (Thank You (Falletinme Be Mice Elf Agin)) was the culprit this time -- I need to work on my plucking so it's not quite so destructive.
After we finished up, the crowd started to cheer for us and asking for an encore. We gave them one, and then did our load out. While we were loading out, one of the crowd came up and asked us to sign one of our CDs. Second time in a row that's happened....
