10/16/08 Indianapolis, IN


///rolled into Indy in the late afternoon to an amazing welcome from Joan and Denny Fitzpatrick (parents of Grown Children drummer Kevin Fitzpatrick) who would be our host for the evening and the following morning... they had cooked up a bunch of spaghetti and salad and bread and all kinds of other goodies for us. it was quite the smorgasborg. we heart Joan and Denny. they are some of the sweetest most fun people we've ever met. they were incredibly generous and a blast to hang out and chat with. our stop there really set the tone for the rest of the evening.
Kevin grew up in Indy and used to play in a band around the area called Stranger Lazy so he was super stoked for this stop on the family tour... he had helped recruit AMERICA OWNS THE MOON -- his favorite Indianapolis band. and wow, we all know why now. def. check them out. really killer stuff.

show was at a super classy place called Radio Radio ran by Tufty -- the bass player of the Zero Boys and now Bigger Than Elvis as well. Radio Radio was obviously ran by musicians. it was an incredible pleasure to play there. and Tufty and Ronnie and Jeff were all super cool. got a good chance to talk music and history with Tufty. what a rad guy.

a bunch of Kevin's friends and family came out to the show, which was really fun. it was a really really great night. spirits were very high. here are some more photos from the evening:
