Pic above is Matt Berninger about to reach out and grab my camera from my hand, nevermind the cheap leather wrist strap (snapped). Below is the photo he took of the audience before returning my camera.

#1 son knew what he wanted, steak tartare! #2 son expressed his disappointment that he was not seated in the private dining room again... high standards for such young kids.

they usually end each show with an unplugged performance of Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks, and it was awesome! LOVE THIS BAND! and even more awesome is that I can hear the daughter singing along during the Wed night performance of Vanderlyle… I sure love that girl.
