SOMETHING
3rd Fridays at...
The Cat Club
1190 Folsom St, SF

Fun night! Although the late arriving crowd made me a little nervous. It's not unusual for the event after a big anniversary party to be lightly attended, but in the end we did just fine. From 11:30 on the back room was full of happy, dancing people. A woman made my night when she requested "Shadowland" from Youth Group and said that she first heard the song on my "What I'm Listening to..." post and she loves the song. Cool! Special thanks to Melting Girl who is always a pleasure to work with, and I really enjoyed dancing to her sets too.
There is SOMETHING happening again on the third Friday in May.
