Inspiration
The show at the Bucket was a lot of fun
Got there at 7:00 just before they kicked us all out side in the rain while they did their sound check Pissed me off but I understand the zen behind sound checks so I took the free drink and stepped outside with the lesbians. Yes I said lesbians and lots of them. I knew Rebecca had a lesbian following but I guess Garrison and Mellissa are both rainbows too. What a fun group.
8:40 the music starts....
Rebecca Scott was good she has a real talent for guitar, but I have to say her voice is just too squeaky for my taste. I can never tell what the hell she is singing about.
Garrison Starr was all I hoped she would be. I have never seen her live and I have to say unlike a lot of artists, she translates her music well to live acoustic. There was a lot of people talking over the music and Garison was a bit perturbed but she put on a strong performance despite the interuptions. I bought her new CD and she signed it for me.
Mellissa Ferick was un-hinged! fabulous high energy. You could tell she was completely lost in her performance. She could have been in a coffee shop playing fo 10 people or in front of 20,000 people and I don't think she would have noticed.
All in all, way better than the Sting concert last week.
I went home inspired with a renewed drive to write songs. Maybe listening to others play can me my muse.
