Following our triumph at the Fillmore we set up shop in The Catalyst - which surprisingly had installed a brand new sound system. The room sounded great and the tape came out really well.

The club tune "The Catalyst" is a classic. Weirdly Goth and Art Rock combined. Very fun to play and even more to practice. This may have been the first gig where no technical blibs cursed the stage. Smooth flowing with some long, good speeches from the Johns, this show is the band at it's touring best. Well rehearsed and excited about playing, this show has great musicality with a well tested selection of songs. It's at this point that I'll mention in the near future were going to put a collection of these venue tunes available for download - something I'm super excited about.
