People ask us all the time...."What's your favorite place to play?" Now, you got your Gorges and you got your Red Rocks and so on, but there's an inexplicable magic that envelopes Alpine Valley. The band is the first to tell you how much they like coming back. The weather this afternoon got a bit crazy. At about 4:15 the sky turned black and the tornado sirens started going off. We had to quickly pull down and cover up a lot of the gear that we spent all day setting up. Due to the heavy gusts of wind across the stage, we were forced to call off soundcheck. We rode out the storm and barely got everything back up and running for the show. We learned that at about show time there were still many people outside of the venue waiting to get in so we opted hold the show for a half hour. Once the band hit, it was hard to tell the mayhem that had occurred earlier. It was cool to hear #41 as the opener tonight which was followed by a really unique and powerful set. This tour just keeps getting better. Catch you back here tomorrow night.
