Farewell Blind Tiger. Howdy Mooseknuckle!

Just this past weekend, the city of Greensboro said its goodbyes to the 22 year old location of The Blind Tiger, a popular landmark that has served as a breeding ground for most of the musical talent coming out of the Piedmont Triad area.  We had the privilege of sharing the stage with our friends in Holy Ghost Tent Revival.  If you haven’t heard of these guys, check em out here.

We got the idea to set a different tone for this show.  Figuring this would really be the last time we play that particular stage, we rounded up every single damn lamp in Greensboro to put around our stuff.  This was a textbook case of a fire hazard and we half expected the sound guy to shit a brick as soon as he walked through the doorway.

Surprisingly, the club didn’t burn down and the whole show kicked ass from beginning to end.  Thanks to everyone who came out and showed their support. The following night we went to the “Moose-knuckle” show at Greene Street.  It was fucking awesome.  The crowd was awesome.  The band was awesome.  This is the allstar lineup: 

Garrett Tindol “The Working Class ASs Kicking Motherfucker”

Henry Jones -  “The Burnout Woodstock Refugee”

Gregory Juenger - “The Water Park Shark Attack Survivor”

Phil Richardson -  “The Drinker”

Keith Shaw - “The Lover of All Things Jovi”

Dawson Edwards - “The Biker Who Believes His Stallions in the Lightning Shirt Gives Him Special Powers”
