Fashionable Idiots Blowout II - March 14, 2008

Fashionable Idiots Records celebrated their 2nd anniversary with a basement show in Minneapolis on March 14th, 2008. My band, UNDER PRESSURE, had not only the pleasure of working with label owners Andy and Eric on a record but were also invited to play the anniversary show with Twin City locals CONDOMINIUM and THE AGENDA, UH OH from Milwaukee, as well as Los Angeles rockers SHOOT IT UP, who were kicking off their US tour that night. It was a very brief but welcome excursion from the monotony of winter living in Winnipeg. All the bands were entertaining although it was CONDOMINIUM who stole the night for me. Hopefully they'll be coming up to Winnipeg in May. Thanks to Andy and Eric for releasing our record and for inviting us down for the show, and to Brad and Matt from CONDOMINIUM for letting us crash at their place.

I'm a little apprehensive.


Janelle and Cam have yet to feel the effects of consuming their Extreme Pitas. Taking it to the max!

Thanks Curran! Yeah, I try to stick to shooting photos in truck stops. Road trips + eating out of pit stops = sickness.
