My buddy Pete, who grew up in Raleigh, has run this venue for the last 10 years. He used to run Walnut Creek, the amphitheater in Raleigh. This venue is dead serious about their curfew. These signs are posted all over the place backstage:

I had a guest at the show tonight who I haven't seen in 30 years. She was Cheryl Balston then, Cheryl Bauer now. We started dating during the last few weeks of high school and were together for about a year. Recently reconnected through Facebook. Which is about the only thing that's worth a crap about FB. I also recently reconnected with some old friends from Charlotte I haven't seen in 20-plus years.
Today was our Production Manager (and Fearless Leader) Craig Finley's birthday. Everyone calls him Fin. After load-out, we had a big parking lot party by the buses. We had some extra time to kill because we weren't leaving for Hartford until 3am. There was booze and cake and revelry and such.
I'll likely sleep like crap tonight because I-95 north of Delaware and into Connecticut is the shittiest stretch of road in the US. Not looking forward to this ride…
