24 hours to go...

So I just got back from Andy's basement. Practice. With the fellows. But not just any practice: the last practice before the show tomorrow.

So what is the mood in the room like? One might expect a torrent of nerves, anxiety, and fear. But it was in fact quite the opposite. We played through the whole set, screwed up some things, had a laugh, played through a couple of songs again, and packed it in. We spent some time trying to coax Brian into making a solo album about wizards and magic. He's starting to cave. Merlin is a big source of inspiration for him. So the crew is feeling loose. Ready. Eager, even.

On the way home I stopped by the venue: Raw Sugar Cafe. Talked to Nadia. She's ready. She's even going to have some lemon poppyseed cake ready for me, which is very important.

Upon arriving at home I took in the splendour that is the costumes, and the set decor, created by Katie Dutton. We'll surely post some pictures here, but you're going to dig it, to be sure.

All of this is to say: we are ready. This one will go down in Ottawa lore, one way or another...

And don't forget! There will be all sorts of CDs available for sale, so bring some MONEY. Can't wait! Hope to see you there.
