Yesterday's performance at FernFest went very well, despite a few relatively minor problems.. mostly technical related stuff; a much later start than planned (6:15!), a stage that was far too small (we had to set up in two rows) and a sound person that kept disappearing. Regardless, we made it work and did so successfully.
The audience was incredibly receptive -- more so than they were for any of the other groups I saw perform earlier in the day. We even got an encore which was pretty cool. After the performance we got a lot of great feedback from folks who watched. An acquaintance who has been familiar with Banquo from the start was pleasantly surprised by how good we sound these days (not that we ever sounded bad.. our sound has evolved a lot). As a group we came out of it very proud of our work and excited about the upcoming performances we have booked over the next while. :)
After the concert we all came back here to my place for dinner (the traditional Banquo potluck stir-fry!) and to consume beer. It was great to be able to spend some social time with the bandmates - we don't get to do that often enough!

Congrats! I am sooo glad to hear it went well (and more than a little sad I wasn't part of it)... Keep up the music making! :)
