Last night Kalaloch tripped out with some woodland creatures from Philly and some Plants. A Gaelic time was had by all. Actually, it was probably one of our best shows ever. (The probably comes from Jen, who came in too early on one song and was a little off key on another. According to Alex it was our best show ever).
There was a cello and a harp and a Moog, and some e-bows. And a lot of long hair. A LOT of long hair. It was really fun. The touring bands were not the type of music we usually listen to (very folksy/trippy/Celtic), but they put on a really good show. Plants is one of our favorite northwest bands (husband/wife, somewhat droney/folksy/poppy...sound familiar?). Last night they just played acoustic (I've only ever seen a really droney plugged show)--but they sounded awesome of acoustic guitar and cello--all unplugged with raw vocals. It was great.
Plus also I think people genuinely enjoyed our set. But maybe that had something to do with the various plants or chemicals taken in before they arrived at the show.
p.s. Forgive me for being redundant (for those of you on facebook), but Kalaloch is trying to play a show Friday May 31st in Utah. We thought someone had booked a show for us...but they seem to have flaked out.
Anyone have any contacts? We're trying to cold call venues...but no bites yet. Know anyone who does house shows? Know anyone who books shows in Utah Valley or SLC? Know anyone who knows anyone who runs a music venue in Utah? Speak up (= We need help! We're also giving a ride to a one-man music project from Portland who was planning to play that show with us.
We could have a fun house show if anyone wanted to use their house!

I really want to hear you guys play!!! I left some suggestions on your facebook about where to play...If our place was bigger I'd say plug in here!
Hey, are you trying to play on Friday or Saturday...as the 31st is a Saturday.
you could use our lame house. I wish I had rich friends with big houses.
