Reverbfest 2007

So last weekend we played Seattle Weekly’s Reverbfest in Ballard and we had a delightful time. It was an almost appallingly perfect fall evening and we ran into tons of friends that we don’t get to see that often. Like this guy:

I was totally ‘bummed’ out that we missed the Partman Parthorse set because A) we like them and their music and B) we always miss the shows where Gary (or Gary Gary, as I like to now call him) does outrageous stuff like wring out his underwear in some guy’s mouth. So naturally, after seeing these pictures, we regretted not being there to see the faces of those whose sensibilities had been offended.

When we arrived at Sonic Boom Records in Ballard and assessed the situation, it seemed as though our set might have been hindered by our surroundings, i.e. rows of CD shelves and magazine racks lining the stage. But somehow, don’t ask me how cause I usually blackout or go somewhere else during performances as a means to escape the physical pain akin to sprinting a mile while yelling at the top of your lungs, we totally ruled school! Which is good, because about 75% of the audience were photographers and ended up taking a lot of cool pictures and saying a lot of nice things about us on the internet. Here are some of the best pictures:

Andrea is a little self-conscious about this one, but I think it’s hottt. Photo by Laura.

I like that I look like I am spanking myself in this one. Photo by Laura.

Very epic looking. Makes you wish you had been there, eh? Photo by Eduardo

Eduardo said ‘Wingardium Leviosa’ and I felt bad because I totally got the joke. Photo by Chona K.

I think I remember this… Photo by Cahmera.

So, yeah. You totally should have been there. Eduardo tried to put it into words on Three Imaginary Girls, but you totally should have been there…
