Seeing people you don't expect to

Friday night we checked out Lucero and Catfish Haven at Otto’s in Dekalb. Nothing like $2 long islands to get you in the mood to rock, but (really) with those two bands on the bill it didn’t take much. Everyone was out to the Lucero show including our friends Andy & Julia and (much to my surprise) Ryan from Muzzle Of Bees and his girlfriend. Was a great great time.

Catfish Haven pounded out raw and sweaty soul-punk tunes from their latest album Tell Me and even snuck in a killer new song. Definitely check them out if you get the chance!

Then (as if Catfish Haven wasn’t enough) Lucero played about two hours worth songs about drinkin’ and girls. It was awesome. After the show some drunk fool even tried to pick a fight with Ben from Lucero. How typical.

Thanks to Sarah for snapping the following picture of Amy and Emily with Ben. Ain’t they cute?

3 uwmryan - 539 days ago It was great hanging out with you guys! Your pictures turned out great. We'll give you a heads up next time we swing down, although this time was more of a last minute decision.

Also, we didn't die at the Travelodge, which is a plus!
