Tennis on a boat
Mr. Fox is a huge fan of them thanks to his cousin. We had really gotten into their music two weeks ago when Mr. Fox stumbled upon The Parish’s schedule and saw that Tennis was playing for only $20 per ticket. Who could pass that up!? So we snagged us some tickets and got our friends to join us. We went to Waterloo early the next week to buy some old records for our new record player when we saw a tiny sign in the door that Tennis would be at Waterloo for free! Hallelujah! What a catch!
D-Day came and we left work super duper early and got to Waterloo and hour before Tennis were to play. The hour was nearly spent when I caught sight of Alaina through the window and our hearts were set to racing. Here were famous people, now two feet in front of us, saying hello. They walked in, set up all the while we hung around like a bunch of loons. She laughed at my joke. (The song for lady’s razors came on in the store). They were set up early, so they browsed the store for fifteen minutes. We worked up the courage and asked her husband for a picture.
We waited for an hour or so for them to start singing, and once they did, they proved to be a true band. They can adapt, they can play without drums, they are a good, great, fantastic band. Enough of my chatter, however, here are the photos and videos I took!
After they finished rocking out with the very best living room jam sesh ever, we got our record signed, and then we went to their second venue called The Parish; where we waited for an hour an a half in the freezing cold. We took the required glam shots to warm up, and to fill the time.
And then we rocked out again!
