Oneside Touring Blog #9: October 24th, 2008; Camden, ME at Gilberts

It was back to Gilbert's in Camden, Maine tonight! The place was extra crowded tonight since there was a tech convention down the street and all of the visitors were looking for cool places to hang out. A lot of them were drawn to Gilbert's and the fun everyone was having with Oneside! I got to meet a lot of interesting people from all over that night, as well as saw some of the regulars.


We got there early enough to play a few games of ping pong again, and up first were Jake and Grafton.





After they played, a man played in a really intense game with Grafton (since he was the winner). So intense, that I didn't even stop to take pictures of it, now that I think of it! Jake and I were just standing there watching, wondering what would happen next. I honestly forget who won that game, but it was fun to watch for sure! Maybe next time I'll take a ping pong video! It'll be like a tour diary. That could be a fun idea! What do you guys think?


Once ping pong was over, it was time for the band to take the stage, and they got the crowd dancing instantly. The best part of the night was toward the end, there was an older gentleman dancing and he came over to me, grabbed my arm, and said "if I have a heart attack, call my doctor in New York!" then he grinned and said "I can't think of a better way to go!" then went right back on to dancing. Definitely a good laugh! He made it through the night, in case you were wondering. :P


Here are some pictures from the band's performance!

And the band!


People really dug them, and many of the bar regulars had said they never saw the band before there and didn't understand why, but also said that they would be coming back next time they came around!


No chicken sandwich review! I have a feeling that will be phased out soon, with the rate we are going with those. We'll just have to find something to replace it with. Maybe "who's sleeping in the van this week?"

Awwww Ned! (He is going to kill me for this but he Grafton thought we needed a picture of this, and I of course had to agree!)


This Friday the band will be playing in Hartford, CT for a special Halloween show! Stay tuned to the blog, you know the pictures from that night will be outrageous! :)


And if you haven't already, check out the band!
