Tim LaComb, our down-the-street neighbor, has been off-and-on in a band, The Party Hounds, since high school. He’s the lead singer. He’s going through a self-described mid-life crisis, and has brought the band back for a weekend of concerts. They are a cover band, playing stuff from the 70s on, and when he posted on Facebook that they would be performing at Velour, I asked Kent if he wanted to go, you know, for a date. He said yes. Doesn’t that sound young and hip? A date to a live band concert. So we went tonight (after a lovely dinner with Tess and Jace Brinkerhoff at our house when I should have taken a picture and didn’t). Quite a few fellow ward members were also in attendance. Velour is very small and has very limited seating, but we found a spot on a bench against the wall and visited with Matt and Kim Eastman before the music started and in between sets.
At the end of the first set, Kent turned to me and said, “I recognized three songs.” I had recognized one or two more. We recognized more songs in the second set and sang and “danced” along. The Party Hounds rock it! We had a good time, a fun date, and were delighted to be able to support Tim.
