How'd it Go? The Schmoejoes at Bunker's
The Schmoejoes played Bunker's Music Bar & Grill on Saturday, April 7th, and it was about as surreal as it gets.
If you ask, I'll tell you that I lived in the Twin Cities for quite a few years, before I met my lovely wife, and moved to Waseca. Since I've been down here, I've gotten pretty lazy about making the hour and a half drive up to the Cities, even though I only have to turn right, then left, and left again (punctuated by lengthy straights). A side-effect of this laziness means I don't see my old pals nearly as much as I used to - once a day has turned into once a year.
Imagine seeing people you haven't run into for 10 years, all in one room - and then you get up on a stage and perform. Odd. It was kind of like a dream, where you see all these people from your past, but you don't have clothes on - or they all have fish heads, or something.
The show itself went pretty well - the sound was great, the beer was free and endless, and the audience was close, appreciative, and I got the distinct impression that they were actually there to see the bands!
I'm looking forward to seeing my old pals again, and meeting new ones when we play the Uptown, on the 14th of June. See you there!
