Dani and Chris' After Get together! "MOTM IS OVER AND I SURVIVED!"

One of many humorous issues about being a musician, is that instances might be few and much between the place you truly get to know different musicians. Certain, musicians could play collectively, and whereas that is a blast, when it is over, they normally scatter like ants. Almost certainly off to a different gig, or maybe a dedication elsewhere.

So, consequently, between musicians it is normally originally of the gig, it is “Hey! How are you doing? Nice to see you!”. Then, on the finish of the gig it is “Oh! That was a blast! Lets do it once more quickly”. That is typically just about it.

One other scenario is one musician may like one other’s music that they’ve heard, however when one is enjoying right here, the opposite is enjoying there. What number of instances has a bar patron stated to me “Oh! Bobbaly Gook! He performs throughout city” But, both I’ve by no means seen Bobbaly Gook, or much more so, by no means heard of him as a result of our schedules battle.

Because of this, typically is the case that musicians by no means get to know each other. That is what the After Get together is about! It permits everybody, musicians and supporters to hang around collectively!

Hell, about six years in the past I performed an open mic up in Islamorada on the Safari Lounge, the place a bass participant was host. Final yr he was arrested for pulling a shotgun on a girl. Who anticipated that to occur? That’s the radical exception to the rule, nevertheless. Nevertheless, on the gig, I by no means acquired to know him.

We now have MOTM coming to city shortly. The actual fact is, nearly everybody attending are fabulous individuals, each performers and attendees!

One of the curious issues that I see yearly, with each musicians and attendees, is everybody speeding round, actually in a panic as a result of they have to be a mile away in two minutes as a result of they must see, you guessed it, Bobbly Gook, enjoying at The Tequila Tree. Or maybe play one other gig.

Key West, “Laid Again”? Significantly? By the point they get house, they’re utterly winded and exhausted. Whereas the individuals who come the opposite fifty one weeks of the yr are simply…. chilling out and stress-free. Is not that what Key West is meant to be?

What is laid again is “Dani and Chris’ seventh Annual After Get together”! MOTM is over and we survived! Right here, it is simply hang around, shoot the breeze with fascinating individuals, chill, and chuckle, have just a few libations, eat fabulous meals, simply as we have achieved in earlier years! Everyone seems to be welcome! Musicians and supporters alike. That features YOU! 😎 You are invited! 😉
