The evening started smoothly enough with Motel (Blake Hammon) playing some cool acoustic songs, including 'Pegasus' which is currently featured on the Little Joy Open Mic blog...

Just as stanleylucasrevolution were about to start we were subject to a police raid which lasted an hour. It was either caused by a noise complaint from a soon to be evicted neighbor, problems with the liquor license (was there one?) or lack of a music license... Anyways, after increasing doom and gloom from all and sundry the police disappeared, the owners started giving away free booze and the music continued on a promise that we would play quietly... We did, kind of... So SLR played a marginally quieter set than usual, culminating in a great version of 'Venus de milo' with much clapping along from a now ultra-enthusiastic crowd...
SLR
DSS divided his set into an electronic half and an acoustic half. The electronic half was great but the acoustic part was possibly the best thing I've seen David do... As well as the Nick Drake-like 'Machines' he sang 'City of the future' which despite forgetting the words was excellent, 'Brand New' and an amazing version of 'Eyes'...
