Mink Valley a bit more famous thanks to festival

So Mink Valley played at the Media Club on Saturday November 15 (part of the Nearly Famous Music Festival). 

Mink Valley

I forgot why festivals are so great - the crowd is actually made up of people who want to check out new music.

Things got off to a bit of a rough start when we arrived and our slot had been bumped to 9:30pm. Originally we were supposed to play at 10:00pm- we were given a 30 minute set so that would mean that a lot of people coming to see us would miss us completely, and we were expecting a pretty big turnout. 

Thankfully the person in charge was cool and let us start at 9:50 instead.

More people came out for us than I even expected which always energizes us even more - we’re louder, tighter, and happier all around.

My only regret was that my glasses were broken and balanced very precariously on my nose the entire time -not super conducive to rocking out, but I tried. 

Oh, and I met another blogger at our show, too. For another perspective on the festival and reviews of other bands, go to his blog at www.nathanstafford.blogspot.com.
