Reply To: JoCo in NYC!
Goddamn it, everyone and their mother beat me back to the thread.
My notes:
* The front tables included a WoW guild named “Code Monkey Buy You Soda”, who in fact, bought a soda for JoCo during the show.
* Paul after the show, as Bry and I were talking JoCopedia: “Are you really going to include that we did Itsy-Bitsy Spider? Jesus.”
* When JoCo and P&S huddled to start the second encore, to decide what to do, Jonathan heard and acknowledged me as I pleaded for “Rainbow Connection”. After the show, both he and Paul actually went and APOLOGIZED TO ME. I was like “What, are you kidding? Don’t worry about it.” Apparently according to Paul, they tried it once in Boston and it was a complete disaster. =/
* Bry is a friggin’ walking JoCopedia. When Paul also mentioned that they did Welcome to the Machine once before, at the first Cactus Cafe show, Bry says to me “I believe that was October 2007.” I said “You’re scary.”
* Bry, Jinx and I shared a table with 3 people who had come all the way from Camden, NJ (probably close to 2 hours by train). They had taken 3 trains and wanted to leave by 9:30 to make sure they didn’t miss anything, 10:30 at the very worst otherwise they’d have to start making phone calls for rides. The one girl next to me had never heard any JoCo other than Still Alive. They stayed the entire show. 🙂 Hope they made it back OK!
* I hope I was able to keep my talking to a minimum for the recording, Bry. I used my POS video phone to take shots, but I ran low on battery by Creepy Doll, and then completely dead when I tried to get Brains. We’ll see how they come out. Anyone recommend a free video editor? 😛
* We confirmed that Scarface is, in fact, a female, and received approval to confirm said gender on JoCopedia. 😀
ETA: Oh, and I stole the setlist. It was written on paper towel from the men’s room. Professional! 🙂 Got Paul, Storm, JoCo and Kristen to sign it. Picture to follow.
