Damn. I put a post in last week's gig guide! I meant to put it in todays!

Anyway - nice guide Noranna. I hope you went to LOA on Saturday and enjoyed it. I certainly enjoyed being onstage, eat LOa's fruit platter backstage, and stunning the band by nearly selling ALL of their T-Shirts. They had to go home to print some more!

Thanks for the comments, Dougie, much appericiated!

I actually didn't get to go to Love Outside Andromeda (doorlist issues, I didn't think I was on it and then, I found out I was but it was too late to make it then) but I've seen them before and they're amazing. Good work on the merch!

Unfortunately, I haven't seen your band, yet. Nice change to Sunset Club; yeah, I used to watch Buffy so I know what you mean. :) I will change all the Hunting Season lists on the gig guide to Sunset Club, then. Thanks for the heads up because Rip It Up and dB said nothing.

I don't think I'm able to make it to the Dan Brodie gig but let me know of other gigs you'll have after (or before). It's really great that people are more into live music than usual :D

Again, thanks!

Buffy is great. I would have prefered an Angel quote, but you can't win them all ;)

Hey, tis cool about the gig. I managed to break strings on all of my guitars, so maybe it was for the best.

There was about 400-450 people there on Saturday. Amazing. Looks like we might have a scene revival on our hands!

If you feel so inclined, we have a song for download up on www.myspace.com/huntingseason ... The Sunset Club isn't on the web yet, so that will have to do!
