I'm at rehearsal. Sons Of Nothing are playing Run Like Hell right now and there's really nothing for me to be doing right now. There are no sound effects in this song for me to cue and I'm not here to rehearse the visuals.

Tomorrow is the big show at the Zephyr Club. We're all expecting (and hoping our expectations are valid) a LOT of people to come out for this show because (a) the band has put a lot of effort into marketing this show, (b) the Zephyr Club is closing down for good a week or so from now, and (c) Bikers Against Child Abuse (BACA) and Dave Smart (uncle of child abductee Elizabeth Smart) will be at the show to promote their causes.

So far, the band is sounding real good.

I forgot my RCA to 1/4-inch adapters so there was no way to hook the effects into the mixer. I found some computer speakers on the floor in a room next to Eric's family room but they really sounded bad when turned up all the way and they weren't really that loud anyway.

I was resigned to using the crappy speakers until I started rummaging through some of the equipment on a shelf in this side room. There I found a small compressor unit, some PA speaker cables, and a much-needed 1/4-inch cable with male stereo headphone jack on one end and two male mono 1/4-inch connectors on the other end. Ahhhh! Finally, we have mixer connectage!

It was my understanding this Zephyr gig would be the last show the Sons did for a while. There was even talk about it being the last show this year. But I think heard Thom saying something when I first showed up to rehearsal about talking to a promoter about some on-the-road opportunities. I guess I'll have to wait and talk to him about it later tonight or tomorrow.
