Watercolor Ghost Town

Picture post today!  Click on pictures to see the full-size version.

I ended up going to a show on Saturday.  One of Erica's bands by the name of The Blueflowers (formerly Ether Aura) had a CD release party - they had two bands open for them then played a bunch of songs from their new CD.  The CD is called Watercolor Ghost Town.  

I met Erica at her house so we could meet up with her friend Erin and head to the show (since I had no idea where it was).  When we hit the road, the conditions were not so great.  My poor car is below:

This is the stage at The Belmont in Hamtramck, where the show was - if you click on the picture you can see that the first band is chatting on-stage and getting ready to start their set (it was pretty dark in there):

Two opening bands played - they were both pretty good.  The first band didn't have a drummer though, which I can't condone.  Then the Blueflowers started their set.  Below is their song "The Reason", recorded by my camera:

After the Blueflowers played their show, they were handing out posters.  I bought a copy of their new album (on the left) and they gave me a free Ether Aura CD (on the right) to go with it:

The time on the clock when we left the Belmont - 2:35 in the AM.

We made a quick stop at Mickey D's on the way back to Erin's place.  After all, it had been ~7 hours since I last ate.

The time on the clock when I finally got home - 3:18.  I really wasn't that tired for some reason, but I went to bed anyways:


Quite an eventful night.  I hope I have more chances to do this kind of thing!
