SPOUT - THE END
NASHVILLE, TN
w/ CODA



We were invited to play this show with CODA @ The End.  We were excited that this was an all ages show.  Each time we play a festival that is all ages, we start craving to play shows that can include everyone - not just those who the club-owners think they can make the most money off of alcohol sales.   I missed out on many rock shows when I was younger because I wasn't old enough to get in.  Yet, I could go to the strip club down the street with no problems.  So, yes.. I hold enthusiasm for these type of shows.  For another reason also though....
some all ages shows don't allow the sale of alcohol.. period..  which sucks, but it's always great to see a shit load of over 21 people there supporting you and you know they are there for the music and not just to get drunk with some rock and roll in the background.  It brings the rock and roll undeniably to the foreground, and that in itself rocks.

The kids were jumping, screaming, shouting the words, wanting autographs,... I  signed a few guitar picks that weren't even mine.  Signed some boobs that weren't even mine. 
but I had a great time...
and THAT was mine!
