The Philadelphia Experience
Wednesday, May 29th, 2002
Well, we made it!! Fighting off food poisoning, nearly getting lost and many other obstacles, we managed to make it to play at Dracula’s Ball!! Once we safely arrived in Philadelphia, things got much smoother. Special thanks to Patrick Rodgers for asking us to play in the first place. We were just happy we could finally say yes…even though it was hairy there for a while with War-N’s food poisoning…EEEK!! He is a pleasure to work with and just to be around
Also, a big thanks to everyone who came out to see little ol’ us!!
On a personal note, I just wanted to thank my sisters for coming all the way to Philly with me. Angie, you made the performance even better than I could imagine!! And Shara, just you being there made it better!! Also, thank you Marcus, Stephanie, Steve and Peter & Carol Harrison (you know…the ones responsible for War-N…I know I am grateful!!!). It meant a lot to us to have you all there. It was a special time we all shared together. Thanks for being there
We have some visuals for you, and many more to come, in the photo section . Shots of the actual performance will follow within a week or so and we’ll keep you posted on that.
I, Christa Belle, did manage to take some great shots of The Dreamside which are posted here . They were EXCELLENT!! I was very impressed. It was very theatrical and very beautiful…they even had fire!!
In addition to all that goodness, Trevor was able to get enough funds to visit his homeland in the near future…YAY!! Now he’s a happy boy…and so are we
Thanks to all who paid patronage to our booth. We really appreciate it!! Thanks to Blue (sorry Trevor bit you…i think he was just nervous!!) and the lovely young lady running the booth with him (Strysta or something??)…I’m so sorry I can’t for the life of me remember your name for sure. But, thank you too!!!
We are also happy to report that at our next show, in Pittsburgh once again, we will be performing even more new material. Go visit Club Laga and find out all the juicy details. The always lovely Kelly Ashkettle will be hosting that event. We will be one of four bands that night, so it’ll be a great chance to hear lots of great bands LIVE!!
You will also be happy to know we are still working on the new album, “Glo”, and look forward to releasing it SOON. Still no date as of yet, but it’s coming together just beautifully.
I suppose that is all for now. Look for updates and a newsletter real soon!! Thanks again for all who attended Dracula’s Ball. It was a wonderful experience for all of us!!
AND…last, but not least…a LARGE thanks to Sam Marotta of trigger10d and Thomas Loeper for coming out and videoing the performance. It was so great to finally meet them!!! More will follow on that.
Until we meet again, always remember… You can pick your friends, you can pick your nose, you can even pick your friend’s nose. But, you can’t turn right on red when posted!!! GOOD NIGHT!!! (I’ll be here all zee veek…)
Large Love and Thanks,
Christa Belle & War-N
