Fun time tonight! Seemed like a light crowd – maybe the house was 70-80% sold? So there was plenty of room to dance, yay!

The band shared a nice mix of old & new, hard & soft, instrumental & word-focused. I'm happy we made it, and wouldn't mind having the opportunity to catch another night, but that will have to wait until the next time they swing through town.

After the Mule show ended, we stopped briefly at Woods Bar & Brewery for a couple tunes from the New Zombies, but Ting was super-zonked from having gotten up early to go referree at a TKD tournament, so instead of heading inside and having a beer, we stood on the sidewalk and grooved for a short bit before heading home.

Big thanks to Ting for the photo gallery!

Whoa! This section is incomplete for now, sorry!
