SHOW REPORT 82: PS1, Iowa City.

TURNOUT: 12

MONEYS: $16 door, $9 merch

INJURIES: Kate found a dying cockroach in the hallway, thought it was a junebug, felt compassion for it, attempted to recessitate it with small droplets of water, which it heartily drank, stood up and became more lively until her efforts were foiled by the janitor who swept the dying thing up and threw it away while she was elsewhere.

STORIES: A slightly disheartening start of the tour. Some nice and enthusiastic people came out, but we didn't make close to enough to get us to the next city. A late start meant there were a few intoxicated attendees, who probably annoyed the more intent and appreciateive audience members and generally soured the experience a bit.

Peter played his "theatre set" which is big and harsh and loud, featuring a long sample from a Beckett novel. It's been a long time since I've seen Peter play, and he continues to kick ass.

Here's a haiku about the drive to Iowa City:

exits more exits

is that a tornado there

just a pointed cloud

Show Descriptin: Rioting in the streets! There was a football game. Iowa city against another city. Big Match. Iowa won! Rioting in the streets! Woo Iowa! Woo!

There was a much different mood down where we played in Public Space One. It's in the basement of a marble and wood panneled type building and it felt a little like we were taking refuge from a tornado above us. Turnout was small and our opinions on the performance itself differ, but a fun time nonetheless. There was a baby who slept through two bands and part of our show, amazing. We met some fine people from Minneapolis who played in some rockin' bands which is handy, since we're going there shortly.
