Yard Dogs Road Show & Capitol City Carnival
More beers than you can shake a stick at, & the Yard Dogs. What more could you ask for? Not much, I tells ya. Rebecca, Drew, Heather, Kristlyn, Joe & I all hit the Capitol City Carnival over the weekend. It was a blast. I personally saw the Yard Dogs three times, & each time was just as fun as the last. They are a great show. The Saturday night show was my personal fav, with Tobias swallowing a red-lit glass tube & the lights out so’s you could see it glowing in his throat… awesome. After the show, we even got to hang out with Zoe for a bit. She was very cool, & Kristlyn got some photos of her with the girls. Heather was, needless to say, close to drooling
I also really dug a couple of the bands. American Dumpster was really good, & I liked the D.J. Williams Projekt. American Dumpster’s hard to describe, but they’ve got a washboard player who really tears it up. ‘Nuff said. D.J. Williams Projekt sounds a lot like a Karl/Soulive mix.
The beers were ridiculous, as expected. It’s always a good thing when you can start your Saturday with a full pint of Siberian Night straight from the tap. Good news for MD’ers, too: Stone’s finally distributing. We had a long talk with the head of the Mid-Atlantic distributor account, who reassured us that they were coming out in force.
You can grab some videos of the show (primarily the Yard Dogs) here (~45MB). I only was able to get them to play with Real Player. Dunno why, but likely something to do w/my phone. Photos have been posted!
Yard Dogs: you need to come back to the Mid-Atlantic… SOON.
