It was a very good time. Well worth the drive up from CT through some ridiculous torrential rain, thunder and lightning. I brought my 18-year-old son with me. This was my first time at the Middle East Club since seeing Descendents there in 1996. Very surreal standing about 20 yards away from the old TT the Bears Place where I saw Dag (& Moving Targets) for the first time, 34 years ago. I forget the name of the alt-country opening band, but they were solid. I struck up a conversation with new(er) Field Day guitarist Shay before MT went on. Super nice guy. We got along famously. Also, was able to catch up with Edog for the first time since the pandemic started. He was healthy and in great spirits! Moving Targets put on a good set. They played a handful of their 80's hits between songs from their recent releases. Field Day was on fire, per usual. Fun setlist that included all of the old records, a handful of originals and some covers. They covered SSD's "Glue" mid-set and closed with 12XU. Peter gave a stage shoutout to Edog and Daghouse. Post set, I was able to introduce Peter to my son and had a chat. He sends his regards out to everybody here at Daghouse. I picked up the new "Why?" 7" at the merch table, #14 of 150 (haven't listened to it yet). Finished the evening with some good conversation with Mark McKay (Slap Shot) and Rev. Hank, who were handing out flyers for their upcoming "Slapnot" karaoke show next weekend. Much nicer drive back to CT. I like these early shows, we were home by 11:30p. Special night with my son, he had a blast.
