The Octoberists in October at Loplops
Friday night was a mixed bag. On the positive side, the place was packed and full of energy, Amber and Cliff sounded excellent (as always), many friends came out to cheer very loudly and Jacob and Lily were very entertaining.
On the not-so-positive side I had a rough go of it. We had a tough time getting the mix right, a lack of practice left me ill prepared for the evening and during a favourite song of ours my guitar was seriously out of tune. Oh well, I still had fun.
Don't forget about November 3rd at Bottoms Up. Carl is still playing but Shane had to drop out due to his being out of town. I think Tim is going to step in to fill the empty set. Laura and I will be playing many instruments (8? 9?). It should be a logistical nightmare to pull off. Crash and burn or soaring high, it will be entertaining nonetheless.
p.s. Thanks to morningjane for the video. (ie: screen cap above)
