....at Schuba's. Great show; full but not crowded at all. The opener was some guy named Gross from Grand Rapids, MI, and he was fantastic as well; he played 5 songs, and seemed very uncomfortable to be on stage, but he was great. Rachel played for about an hour and a half, which was a welcome change from the recent trend of 35 dollar 45 minute hi-hop shows. The girl I went to the show with with knew Rachel from the previous band that she was in, so they shared a few minutes talking together in the cd sales line; I'm sure it pissed off the people waiting in line. If you have a chance to catch Rachel, do so.... I took a few pictures as well, but I doubt anybody would want to see em. If I'm wrong, let me know, and I'll put em up. |
