March 29th-Jacksonville, FL
***
It's officially our last day in Florida and tomorrow it's onward and upward! This afternoon we met up with Blake's mom, Jan. She took us out to a big BBQ Feast at Sonny's. I've never been to a real BBQ place before and let me tell you, this was overwhelming. Smoked ribs, chicken, roast beef, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes, mac n cheese, texas toast AND sweet tea! Not to mention the 4 different types of BBQ sauce. Thanks Jan for the gigantic BBQ lunch. It made our tummies full and happy!
Today we played at a place called Brewster's Pit that reminded us of the Boardwalk in Sacramento, except the sound guy was a lot nicer ;) Blake's friend Jeanetta's band Wormzilla, performed as well as her friends' band I-vibes. The bill in general was an eclectic mix of genres but it was a complimentary combination. Wormzilla was an unexpected surprise for me. I've seen Jeanetta perform in an acoustic setting showcasing her amazing voice, but this was a whole different story. Wormzilla was weird, crazy, fun and high energy with Jeanetta cracking me up with her
flowin' and oo-ing and aww-ing and jack-rabbit "AWWWWW-ing"
("Jackrabbits in the night be like awww awww awwww!")
It was great and we had fun even in a big black box that usually hosts metal bands. Sometimes you just gotta bring a little light & color to a dark room.
My mama always told me to live life in color…and that's what we do :)
