Although it may seem like we're vicariously living through our (recent) past, I'd like to lob yet another gentle reminder of how fabulous See Vous Play was.
I can't speak for everyone at R3, but as I'm going through my work day, researching and planning my shows, sometimes I wonder if people are really digging what we're doing. It's not a deep, self-doubt kind of thing - more like a curiousity. Given the hundreds of emails that we receive on a weekly basis, I know that you're out there, but sometimes I think we need tangible, tactile proof.
That's what See Vous Play was for me. When it was time to put boots on the ground and capture that love inside the four walls of Kool Haus, you were there. Whether you were online, listening in on Sirius 94, or standing on the floor in the club, you showed up in spades. All four acts were unbelievable, with a dozen highlights, but Joel's eight-minute-version of "Maybe We Should Just Go Home" really stood out for me - especially the trippy part in the middle.
As I stood in the audience, watching fists pumping and voices singing along, with the smiling faces and the band in full swing, I had my proof.
Thanks for that everyone. And we'll see you soon, in Halifax.
