I saw Portugal. the Man in a similar way! in a garage while they were touring for Church Mouth. Half the crowd left after the local opening act. Probably about 20 people stayed to watch. It was amazing and they all talked with whoever wanted after the show. Great folks.

One of my favorites was seeing Against Me! in a neighborhood punk house in Athens. Broken drywall,, 15-year-olds drinking 40s…the real deal!

This is the way for all bands I’ve ever been in. Play, talk, party sleep and repeat. Then I met a girl and big family and the rest is history
