[QUOTE="Yeti:1223525"][QUOTE="ShadowSD:1223471"]I remember the first time we had to play a whole night ourselves, it was at this place called the Blue Tree Cafe in Ansonia, CT near the beginning of 2003. We just played all our originals, covers we liked, and a couple improv jams here and there, broken up into three sets. All metal, but we have 90% clean vocals and lots of clean or melodic guitar parts so there was enough dynamics to balance it. We started to do this at a bunch of places, and while it's a long night (lug and set up PA, play for four hours including breaks, break down PA and get to sleep at 5 am), it was good to mix those in once in a while with club shows because the pay was decent and it was a great time. The bars and the bar crowds expecting some half assed classic rock barely competent band were always pleasantly surprised by a metal band that was tight, we threw in War Pigs or Looks That Kill or House of the Rising Sun along with our own stuff and it all went over well. These days, we have two hours plus of originals, meaning we can practically play a full night just doing that at this point. I have to say, I LIKE playing a long set, and being able to take a break with a drink and a few rips before going back up there is a great fucking time.[/QUOTE] long live the Turnhall.[/QUOTE]
