Surprise show surprisingly bad

The Nuts + Berries rollercoaster played something between an open rehearsal and a morgue tonight. The “little surprise show” scheduled for Quixote’s True Blue got inexplicably moved at the last minute to Dulcinea’s 100th Monkey. Madness ensued. Many fans got lost along the way. The new venue was a charming bar next to a porn shop and a block away from a Korn concert at the Fillmore. I saw no perverts or Korn fans at Dulcinea’s.
I made quick work of the hippies in the bar, driving most of the patrons out the front door by the end of the second song. And there was a large “Bitches Brew” mural by the toilets. I guess it was an OK night after all.
Thanks to Superfan Sara Armijo for being there. She got to hear this setlist: Edgar Song/The 1st Year Sex Didn’t Sell/Dayglo Cowtown/A Good Friend is Hard to Find/Feet in the Snow/Li’l Fingers/A Better Mousetrap/Meth Mouth.
“Meth Mouth” is a weird set closer but at some point you have to take the horse out behind the barn and shoot it.
The Quentin Young Band turned in a nice set, though. Their sound man amused himself by running Quentin’s vocals through about 10 seconds of delay.
Next week’s big show at the Oriental Theater should be exciting. I am prepared for anything after tonight.
