We Got So Welshed Last Night...

The band reconvened last night, after what seems like months, preparing for our upcoming show at 1982. Spirits were good, I think everyone was glad to be playing. Several times, we had to stop mid-song due to incessant giggling. Danny's Tama kit was back in action, it was awesome to hear his regular kit again.
Catchphrase of the night: Get Welshed (as in Danny Welsh, of course). Bizarre happening of the night: Karl suggested covering a Tears for Fears song and promptly began playing what we recognized as the bridge to "Head Over Heels." I was a little flabbergasted, it's usually Steve and I who are suggesting covering songs from that era, and I had no idea that Karl even liked Tears for Fears.
Also notable was Karl and Danny's pitch perfect rendition of the B-52s song, "Dance This Mess Around." They did it a cappella.
Anyway, we're getting ready to finally play a show, after 6 months off (!) from performing. It will be our first show comprised of three fathers and a Welsh. Saturday, February 21 at 1982, we'll be playing with Guiseppe and Towers of Hanoi. Come get Welshed.
