Last night’s Eagles vs. Rockets show at the Acadia Cafe kicked some serious ass. We had some minor issues with sound to kick things off, and we took our dear time about developing momentum, but the final four songs were played from heaven on high! Ripping through Ticky Ticky Tembo, Con El Sol, Revolution, and Woman Engineer in succession to end the set, we built up up up until in a final fury of post-teenage angst, we angrily pounded our respective instruments until they broke down and wouldn’t serve us any longer. I remember looking over at Colin and thinking, “Oh shit! He’s gone berzerk!” during the final four bars of Woman Engineer. Wow. Simply amazing.
