Tonight was something unique for Tammy and I. We had a date. Not a let's hurry and grocery shop while the kids are at grandmas date; an actual date. With a daughter at a birthday party and the two boys having a play date with their cool uncle; mom and dad are free to have fun. So tonight we went out to The Flying M Coffee Garage and watched Connecticut Four and The Very Most. Some context. Having grown up in Nampa I remember when the Flying M was a Firestone tire shop. It's nice to see a space transformed for a new use. They even re arranged the letters from the Firestone sign to "Finestore". Also, Jeremy Jensen guitarist/ vocalist for The Very Most is from Nampa. We attended school together and for a time when we were first married Tammy and I lived next door to his parents.
It was a great show. Connecticut Four took the stage first and played a great set. They offered to barter their EP CD for a floor to crash on for the night. I couldn't convince Tammy that our living room would work. The sounded great. You can listen here.
Second was The Very Most. The reason we came tonight. What a fun show. Indie-pop made to order! The music was great and the venue was awesome. But I have to say that the best part was being with Tammy.
It reminded me of when we were dating and first married just the two of us. Together. At times when it was too loud to talk Tammy and I texted one another.
Fun times. Great music. Amazing company.
