Pride and Stuffs

Oh my! This has been seemingly the longest and most eventful pride season ever. It started last Friday at around 1:30pm, when we had to show up at the 9:30 Club to unload equipment. It's nice to have men in black descend on your car and unload all the heavy stuff you have jammed in there! Later in the day we had a sound check - and then spent a lot of time waiting in the strange crevices of the club. Go to the media page for a little taste of that stuff.


Then last Sunday was the Capitol Pride street festival. It was early as all-heck, as well as just as hot. We got introduced by Mr. Modern-Day Hollywood Squares, Bruce Vilanch, and played some tunes-some of which you can watch on the Media page.


Then Monday - onto the Ottobar with Pariah Parahna and Donita Sparks.


Finally we get to last night - Baltimore Pride's Block Party. You know- we (and by we I mean me, Bethany, and Selena and Eva) had not actually seen the special choreography-involving-back-up-dancers-treat that was to close out our set -so we were quite tickled when dudes started doing flips in front of us. All-in-all, although we cut many songs from the set, all was cool.


Now today is the Baltimore Pride festival in the park. I'm sure it will be the hottest day of the year- because it always is.


birthdayB copy Here's my special show plug: So..one of us has a momentous birthday coming up..and it happens to coincide quite nicely with our excellent Rams Head Live! show. That said...it is my (Bethany's) wish, that in honor of my 30th birthday, you will attend this show the weekend before at Rams Head Live! Buy your tickets direct from me and I'll even deliver them to your personally. Just email the band right here and I'll get them to you.
