Flu + Gig  #
Monday, 15 Jul 2002 04:57PM
I managed to come down with the flu on Friday. Sore throat, body aches, all that. Doctor thinks I may have had the flu for weeks but the full symptoms only came out this week due to stress, but what would he know?

But the Walken gig on Sunday still went ahead. I slept all day on Friday. I slept most of the day on Saturday. I slept most of the day on Sunday... I stumbled to pick up the gear, watch the excellent Photos of Being and The Junkers play, set up my gear, nearly faint on stage, finish gig, nearly throw up, accept heaped on praise, go home, sleep. I barely remember it. Still feel crap, but better. I think the exercise may have helped.

Anyway, gig ruled. The Tote usually gets around 50 people on a Sunday, last night they had 100. We actually made money. All three bands. Joy! More gigs soon! Look forward to more ME with added energy and enthusiasm!

Was kind of hoping acb might have been there (he tends to wander down to the Tote a lot it seems) but then I didn't actually invite him so I guess that's my fault.
