Teagan and Sarah opened for them. Kinda early to mid-80s alternative sounding band with two female singers. I asked where they were from when I purchased their cd and the reply was Canada. Not a city just an unnamed shack within 5 miles of the US border.
The scoop.
The Col Ballroom, Davenport, Iowa. Camera friendly. General admission. Sold out. Brandon said that there were 1300 of us there. First band in 2 years. The guy selling booze says they either get bands on the way up or on the way down.
Full bar Beer $2.50 per can Jager Bombs $4 Shirts $20
Unfortunately on one concession for booze so on my second trip I bought 3 cans of Miller Lite to get me through the show.
True to the security dude's word they played for about an hour including a "new" song and 3 others not on the lp although one was on the UK release. Their performance was pretty damn good, 10K times better than their SNL abortion. No F ups.
Still depressed that I missed New Order last week because the Buick and the Jag took a $800 shit on me. I was going to skip this one too but Wifey wanted to go.
