Morcheeba Day 13, Denver, CO

Always nice to wake up in the city you're playing. It gives you time to do important things, like get coffee, walk around, maybe shop a little. It's always more relaxing to start the day that way. And we needed to be relaxed to deal with the Gothic Theatre.

The Gothic is actually a nice room, but it's hell to work in. I had to go through the crowd to get to my world, so once the show started, I had no stage access. The band couldn't even see me. The guitar tech was stuck in front of the stage, in the crowd itself. Pretty wild. Again, I braced myself for the worst, but again, the all walked off seeming pretty happy at the end of the night.

Once we were done, we headed a couple doors down to a bowling alley where we finished the night in style. I started slow but mounted an incredible comeback that included 3 straight strikes to win the game. Unfortunately all I won was the opportunity to wait on the bus til it left at 6am...
