“Rock Night Blast Off” was the title of tonight’s little shindig at the Delta Ballroom, and while there was nary a space shuttle in sight, there was a good deal of rock and roll. On the bill were The Idlers, The Novaks, and Hey Rosetta!
Official Observations for the evening:
Telling people to dance rarely has the desired effect, but a badass horn section often does.

A good line up will induce even reasonable people to go out on a Thursday night.
Those same reasonable people will even pay $6.25 for cans of Black Horse.
Sold out, the Delta Ballroom is still half empty.

Rock and Roll is not dead.
One lighter waved in the air inevitably leads to more, but not as many as you would think.
Getting people to clap is much easier than getting them to dance.

Radio hosts sometimes feel compelled to drink a full beer on stage.
The Junos are really happening, and people are excited about it.
Cello makes every song better, seriously.
