Whip it! Whip it Good!

This morning, I was up early and hard at work on a shot list for my film which is proving to be much more difficult than I expected. Because I woke up earlier than usual, I didn't have as much energy as I usually do for the evening show. But DEVO did a great job keeping me alert and energetic.

Call time was 12:30, so I didn't have time for any grand adventures. However, I did nail down a restaurant for our crew so we can have sort of a end of work celebration. I was glad to have that nailed down today to hopefully impress my director :) I dropped his name to the manager, and he said, "yes, it's done, whatever you need." I've learned I prefer work with people to work with heavy equipment, so I'm glad the physical labor at the Medals Plaza is not super intense. I had been feeling a little discouraged because I do not feel I'm providing the best assistance for my camera operator, so being in charge of dinner reservations gave me a boost of confidence.

During the sound check, it was actually too warm to wear my soft shell jacket! It had to be at least 60 degrees (Fahrenheit) which was totally weird. Tomorrow, the rain should be coming in so I enjoyed the clear, warm day while I could. When the sun goes down, though, the cold is absolutely chilling! I wonder how different KY will be from here...

DEVO taught me that age does not have to be a factor in energy level. The band members were well into their 50's-60's, but they still rocked! They were loud, upbeat, and exciting! The lead singer even danced around and spiked up his hair during one of the songs like a teenage rockstar would have done! I was definitely amused. Everyone in the audience was given a blue plastic pyramid-like hat, so looking out into the crowd was like a giant blue lego board.

Overall, I'd say it was one of the best shows yet. Tomorrow, the Fray.
