Local Music: After Action Review


The last local band we saw on Saturday night was After Action Review, 
from the star city of course, and they rocked our socks off.


 
Mike on drums and vocals (side note, he was in the band back at my very first shows)

below is Steven  rocking the mic


 I have to say, of all the bands of the evening, they had the crowd going with the best energy, 
despite the bouncers trying at every turn to simmer down the action. 
From the start of the show they announced, "no dancing!" 
The room sounded with laughter and jeers, jokes about Footloose, and other fun filled rebellion. 

 



we have TC on guitar and vocals on the left
to the right is Robbo on bass


Four times during their set the bouncer came through the crowd 
to stop Amy, my little sister, who was "out of control." 
It's pretty funny, in a crowd of at least twenty people, 
the smallest girl is the one being harassed.



The show was absolutely epic, this is band you should definitely have on your radar. 
They might even be playing in the Warped Tour this summer! 
You can check them out here: After Action Review.


"With dedication and conviction we are making the music of a generation fed up with the world we live in."
-from the bands page. check them out. do it now.

I hope you enjoyed this look into a great local band in our star city!
We had a lot of fun.

Until next time,

the good, the bad, and the embarrassing

Our first week and a half on the farm have not been uneventful by any means. In fact, tonight on the ride home I said to the Universe (or more accurately Jonathan, since that's who heard me) "thanks for all the tests you've been throwing at us lately, but that's enough for now, please?" We expected some hard times and lots of hard work, but we weren't ready for random mishaps and accidents that would set us back so soon in the change. Bad things that have happened since we arrived: Jonathan gets a tick and the head is stuck in his back. It's been a week now and I think it's all worked out, but I was really scared. We get locked out of the Jeep, and it's $120 for a locksmith to come unlock it. We have snatched Zaphod (our kitty) off of upstairs windowsills about five times. I smacked myself in the forehead with a knife (apparently I missed the day in class when they tought you basic knife-holding skills.) It was just a little cut, mainly my ego ...

a new beginning

Hello there strangers. I'm sharing this with you on my new iPhone. I'm not usually big on having new fancy things, but I'm excited. My absence in this space has been mostly due to a terrible computer that makes it nearly impossible to work on. I hope now I can finally be productive in this space again. I've missed you.

puppy play date

Yesterday Trilli got to have a puppy play date with her best friend, Oreo, and a new boyfriend, Yeti. Everyone in our group has a dog or two, so socializing them is essential. With several large breeds covered in our pack, they can be a bit much at first. Oreo (the pit bull) is quick like lighting, nudging the others with her nose and batting her paws. Trilli (husky and lab) loves to play but has the biggest mouth, constantly barking. We're working on that. Yeti is a basset hound and great Pyrenees mix, still growing and just beautiful. He got along with the girls wonderfully, outside taking turns pouncing on each of them. It's great to watch a pack of dogs together, it's so natural for them, their own kind; friends.  Hopefully next time I'll remember to bring my camera! Until next time, Angela Kelly
