Valentine’s Day 2009

February 18, 2009 at 9:35 pm (Silverthorn)

Silverthorn rocked Mirfield! A definite 2-stick rated* gig.  The Wasp’s Nest, Mirfield, was jam packed with quite probably the best crowd we’ve ever had. And less than half were people we knew!  This was our first full-night gig in a pub without any other bands playing and without any false sense of modesty, I think we did rather well.  The evidence? We’ve been invited back and have been asked to do one birthday party and one wedding as a result.

Favourite moment? Playing ‘I hate everything about you’ by Ugly Kid Joe on Hallmark Day, oops I meanValentine’s Day.  Can’t beat a bit of anti-romantic feeling. Well, when you think about it, it’s a day celebrating the brutal murder of a priest.  Not much romantic about that.

*That is, the number of drumsticks broken by Adam. This is how all gigs will be rated from now on.
