Flying high with Airline
Thanks to everyone who came to the Jeff Jones Comedy Hour (aka The Jones Thing at Club Dada, opening for Airline). We hadn’t practiced enough of the material to perfection, so the 1.5 hour show was replete with inane bs coming from my mouth in between songs. We had a ton of fun though and everyone was very complimentary of the sound. I can’t thank Dada enough for providing such wonderful PA reinforcement, expertly mixed by Bobcat. Can’t wait for the next gig with Sorta on the 29th.
Finally got to see Airline live in a proper venue, with people listening instead of yammering. These kids were incredible. I wish I had reached the level of song writing maturity that Frontman Robby Holley posesses when I was in my early 20s. They have all the tools (originality, look, presentation, youth, energy, songs) necessary to ‘make it’ – or rather achieve national/international success. You best see these guys soon/this year – I have a feeling they will be touring America/Europe/Brazil before ya know it.
Remind me to play you some of my early 20s material…. it is frightening.
I personally apologize for not making it last night, Jeff.
Thank the gods you have more dates on the way
Love
Ceepe
we need a 12 leons reunion
love you ceepe. we’ll hang out soon!
Great show at Dada, Jonesy. You write some amazing songs. And thanks for the kind AIRLINE words. Those guys work hard.
