Just a Morgantown Minute

This was the first time any of us had ever been in West Virginia, despite Eli's neighboring Virginia upbringing, and it was really beautiful. The venue, 123 Pleasant Street, was really great. It was a gorgeous old brick building that payed homage to all the other spaces it had been before, including other music venues, and an important Underground Railroad stop. With dark wood floors, old signs, and a big, but cozy feeling, we were really excited to be there. I always really apreciate feeling a sense of history in a space, and it was a really nice to feel like a part of that. And on top of it all, we were told that the club was started by the soundguy for David Bowie, so it sounded amazing.



Haley from American Sound Syndicate was as sweet as they come, and they played a really tight set, despite the fact that some of them needed to be up at the crack of dawn to compete in a music competition the next day.
