ONE WEEK AND TWO MORNINGS AFTER: STARKWEATHER

First things first. Thank you to the 400-or-so of you who came out in the cold to make this show so excellent. We appreciate the support more than we could ever express in words.

Thank you to Starkweather for coming all the way out west. I'm confident I'm speaking for many when I say I never thought I would see you perform and the show far surpassed my highest expectations.

We should all be thankful for Tamerlane, Sleeping Giant and XReflectX--three examples of the amazing talent and dedication that Salt Lake City has to offer.

And finally, many thanks to Slug Magazine, City Weekly, Red Pulse Magazine, Club Sound, Este Pizza, Greywhale Music and anyone who helped spread the word about the show by tacking up flyers, posting online bulletins or telling friends.

All that can be said about the show is that each of the bands played their hearts out. Fun was had by all and memories were made.

Videos and pictures will be posted for weeks to come, including an interview with Starkweather. These will give a much better picture of the evening than some hazy recap. Find pictures at the GCA Photo Archive and videos at the GCA Video Archive.
