Hi Everyone!
-This Saturday night CAROLINE BLUE played it’s 1st show ever at a place called Fusions in N. Syracuse, NY.. This was a “last minute” show in which the show was only confirmed 5 days earlier. The club did get an ad in the paper and we did manage to get some online promo done. The booker-Richie-was going to be providing lights/sound for us this night.
-We get there and get things ready for the show. Here’s the setlist for this night

-The show was a little rocky in the beginning, but we found our groove soon enough. We had a request to do “Beth” so after we did “Detroit Rock City”, I sang most of it solo. BTW-if Michelle is reading this-remember that bet you were telling me about? You would’ve won in at the start of our 2nd set 🙂
-Fusions is realy laid out very well and looks great. Plenty of parking and clean. The sound/lights were from Tim Schad & company & they did a great job.Maybe a touch too much fog 🙂 The crowd was small but we seemed to be getting some great responses to the songs we did-covers & originals. We had a few mishaps this night. Because of the response to some of our originals, I went into networking mode-which is what you should do-but I forgot to monitor the time and, as such, our break went on longer than it should have. My fault. A number of people left and Richie asked us if we wanted to cut the night short or not. After a quick discussion, we decided to soldier on. So why is SET 2 so short? Well, on “Mine, Mine, Mine” I broke a string. I had the 7 string for the songs that we do that require it, but I admittedly am not used to playing most of our other songs with it. You would think that the addition of just 1 string isn’t much, but the guitar becomes a different animal with just that 1 addition. So instead of subjecting the people still there to me possibly messing up songs, I made the decision to call it. Then Richie came over & asked if we could keep going-some more people had just showed up. We said yes, but then found out the sound company had already started to tear down their gear so we couldn’t. My bad.
-For all of us @ CAROLINE BLUE I want to give a huge thanks for Richie & the crew @ Fusions for having us here. Huge thanks to Tim Schad & his sound crew and, most of all, thanks to all the people that were here. I know there was a lot going on this night and this was a last minute gig, so we appreciate all the people that were there. saw some people we haven’t seen in awhile.
-We’re going to be back @ Fusions on March 20 opening for The Bomb. Hope to see you all there!
