If your show came off fairly well on Saturday, and you stayed out late basking in the vibe, and watched some other cool shows into the wee hours, you are tired Sunday for the last day of Abbie Fest, but at least it's a sort of satisfied tiredness. That was the case for us yesterday. Better than if the show came off badly... then you are just bone-tired, and you are kind of kicking yourself over lost moments and opportunities. Not a good feeling.
So, yeah, anyway, we were tired yesterday, didn't really catch up, but felt good about the debut of our show the previous evening, so we could sit back and relax for the last day.
I pretty much laughed the day away. The highlight for me was the insane wackiness of Hobo Junction. I hesitate trying to even convey what their show was about, it was silly, stupid, ridiculous, over the top, insane, funny. Very funny.
And The Resonant Authority. "Trust Only Us... We Are They!" Brilliant! Again, I don't have the energy at the moment to describe this show. It was the best. So funny. Profound too!
And don't forget The Abbeys. Close harmony singing. Lots of Everly Brothers. Two voices, two black Gibson acoustic guitars, and a standup bass. Pretty cool in a sort of uncool way. They've been singing together for 23 years. The real deal.
We ended the evening late at the Horizon Cafe. Family cooking. What a great little family diner! I ate a spinach/feta omelet the size of my head. It was perfect, and delicious, and I ate the whole thing!
That's it! Abbie Fest 2014! Put it in the books.
