Shirts and a Show

I got to pick up this year's Memphis Concrète shirts yesterday afternoon! I made the usual kinda deal for the festival itself and some bonus shirts for the Halloween III live score. I think these Halloween ones may be a relative hit. I was happy with the design I stumbled upon (mainly centered on the pumpkin from the tv screen). So far others seem to be pretty into it. I was able to convince Mary Beth to be my model! So we took some pictures out on the deck. It's lookin' good! Then I had a show to go to last night. I was worried about turnout given past shows at the Hi Tone and that the festival is next week and things are a bit of a blur. But it had a pretty nice turnout, you know, for a show I put on and one on a Wednesday. Fosterfalls was first and they had a nice looping set (looping acoustic guitar and vocals and not their regular singing with lyrics and stuff, just kinda ambient folk vibes). Then it was Amy Bestevez. Celeste (Argiflex) was handling the music sounds while Amy rapped and jumped around. Then it was Argiflex. She's been away up north for a good while so good to see her after such a good while. Last it was Pas moi and they had the guitarist from Late Night Cardigan accompanying. Good stuff as always. There was actually enough to clear the door fee and pass on enough to the touring musicians to not be a bad night. I picked up some merch cds from 'em: v/a: Bedlam Tapes 2015-2016, Argiflex: Liquidpunk, Argiflex: Aug 2022 Demos, and Amy Bestevez: Hell Street 1 & 2. Well, now it's a new day, off to it.
