Gig spam: Raleigh area folks

[hippietim]

My band Mopping Janet will be playing at McKinley's in Clayton this Friday September 5th.

We're a rock band - we play a good variety of covers from James Brown to Black Sabbath to Tom Petty to Radiohead to Gov't Mule.

I'll be the big long-haired guy playing guitar - if you can make it please introduce yourself, it'd be great to meet some forum members!

Info and directions on McKinley's:

I'll try to get out - what time do you guys go on? Fridays are always late days for me at work.

Brian, that'd be great! We usually start around 10pm. Thanks!

Our Friday night gig ended up getting cut short by a set because of the storm. Man that was some ****ing rain!

Saturday night we did an opening show down in Fayetteville. It was only our 3rd gig and we were using a substitute drummer that we only rehearsed with for 45 minutes - not exacly a formula for success :jo But it ended up kicking much ass. By the second song the club owner was thanking the headliners for having us play with them because he wanted to book us. We ended our set with War Pigs and the whole ****ing bar was standing up, throwing fists, and singing along. It was a blast. Anyhow, here's a couple pictures from the show.
