the saviors for the evening were Stephanie and Chuck from local band Stephanie's Id that came out and gave us their enthusiasm and support. and offered up their home and comfy beds for our travel weary bodies. so incredibly kind of them. they even took us out to breakfast the next morning and gave us a tour of the town... helping to point out the places we should look to play next time through. really really sweet of them. can not thank them enough. we didn't play with them, but may someday. either way, check them out. so awesome. www.myspace.com/stephaniesid and such sweet sweet people. we had a blast with them.
by the way, drive up from Georgia that day was absolutely stellar thanks to the recommendation from the bartender at Tasty World... as we took the scenic route through the Black Mountains of northern Georgia up into North Carolina. even stopped at a roadside chocolate shop for some ice cream and truffles. oh my. gorgeous drive. here are some photos from the drive and of our afternoon in Asheville...

Sorry to hear about the Joli... that place really needs to close. We live a bit over and hour away and couldn't make it that night during the week. But I felt bad when I heard it was at the Joli. We recently tried to catch a couple of shows there and they were disasters because of their "internal strife"
