Late Night with The Hyannis Sound
What a crazy night we had last night!
We got to Chatham and as I was getting my clothes out of the car, my tie got stuck in the door of my car, jamming the door shut. Fortunately Andy and I were able to pry it back open, but it was just a hint of how unpredictable that night would be...
So we are warming up for the show when we are notified that the show has sold out already AND there were many people who were not going to get in. It just made sense that we do a second show so everyone could have a chance to hear us sing. So we went out and had a great first show which included a special performance by Eric Fozz, Ed Boyer, Victor Sandman, and Mark Manley singing two barbershop tunes between our sets. Then, during the second show, all bets were off!
The second show was something one-of-a-kind. It featured just about the entire line-up from 2004, also with Mark, Greg Binstock, and Sasha Chanoff. We sang tunes from '03,'04, and some standards from way back in '94 and '95. It was truly awesome to sing songs that I had enjoyed so much as a fan like "Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For". It was a nice little preview of the HUGE alumni show going on at Barnstable High School on Saturday.
Suffice to say, there were some memories made last night!
