So here is how we got to the Trifecta title of the blogs.
After closing out our 3-7 ROCK the beach slot, and then partying with 30 Below for the 7-10:30 slot Andy, Lonzo and Lonzo’s bro Todd trekked up to Aardvarks in Truman for their grand reopening to see the band Sinister. Sinister was set up outside on a flat bed trailer in the parking lot. The Lava Lords have had to go head to head with competing gigs at least once before in Fairmont with Sinister and got our butts kicked so we wanted to be able to check out the competition. This is Tommy Bolster’s band covering mostly 80’s Heavy Metal. We got there in time for the last set and both encores. This band ROCKS and has spent some serious cash on their sound production and light show. Sinister has a HUGE following in southern MN as they should. We were able to talk to Tommy briefly before they started the third set and he was surprised and happy to see us. They had a good crowd of several hundred people. Check out the pics !!
So in closing, it was truly an amazing ROCKING weekend. Three bands !!! Trifecta !!
We packed in as much as we could in a 24 hour period. What a riot!!
BUT WAIT – THERE IS MORE!!!
Once we got back to the Miles Away Farm, Todd sparked up a camp fire. There we were, three happy campers hovering around a camp fire at 1:30 in the morning…..peace, quiet, solitude, crickets chirping, the fire crackling, full moon. Totally calm. What a contrast and fitting closing to an exciting day. We are so LUCKY and appreciative of what we have. Can’t wait to go at it again.
