That's what it was there for. :-)<br /><br />My other favorite memory of this show is the BTBO drummer giving me all sorts of shit about the mic stand she was stuck using, and about me doing sound, in general. I don't think she was pleased. But I loved it.<br /><br />(And that's me in one of those pictures, crouched up on a table near where the soundboard was tucked. It was the only room in the basement. I wish I'd had a camera because it was wall to wall people down there just past where the bands were standing to play.isntthiswherewehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15561261872358984067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7755875663056955059.post-46931953941382884712009-08-31T19:15:48.885-05:002009-08-31T19:15:48.885-05:00Jim M. played clarinet with Ida when they played a...Jim M. played clarinet with Ida when they played at IOTA in Arlington, oh back in 1999 or 2000 or so.

So I came home one evening to find a crowd of people floating around the house and Babe The Blue Ox in my basement.

I still have that first green 7"<br /><br />Many of you may remember I moved to NYC for a couple of years after I got out of ND.
