Laughlin, NV - How hot is TOO hot???

Friday, June 23, 2006

OK, so go down to the stage at 1pm. It is almost 117 degrees, it won't be under 100 by the time the band hits the stage at 9:30pm. Who thought it was a good idea to do a show in this weather? We set-up and soundcheck quickly, all drinking as much water as possible and taking periodic breaks in the barely air conditioned trailers behind the stage. By showtime it's still too hot, show cancelled. We loadout and take another long bus ride to Lake Las Vegas, for our show tomorrow.
