Adrian Orange and “Her Band” recap
October 28, 2007 | | 3 Comments
Dear Rock Class Diary,
So the show was less than spectacular, as Adrian ended up being the opening “band”, and having to play a really short set on someone else’s guitar. He used his looping pedal for most of the guitar parts and sang from a notebook of things he had written on the train. It was great to hear his voice in person. It sounds just as good in person as it does on the records, so imperfect it’s just beautiful.
I did end up hanging out with him after the show at a random shop in Charlottesville, and we played music on some terrible instruments in the rain. As proof, here is a picture that would go in my scrapbook of keepsakes if I had such a thing..

It was a night full of the absurd, but I’m all about Camus, so I went along with it.
I’m really looking forward to Mount Eerie in a few weeks.
the end
