We have played this venue FORTY TWO times, the first time being May of 2002 when the venue was operating under the name Dry Bean. A Madison area staple that was open again for way too short of a time as The Vine. Sad to say, we found out just one day prior to our show that we would be the last band playing here. Sounds familiar… we closed down the Badger Bowl as well… SIGH.
So many memories here. So many HOT and PACKED nights and tonight was no different. Kudos to Amy and her amazing crew for handling our crowd. They slung those drinks for a full house of live music fanatics and we were happy as well to oblige everyone's thirst.
Pre-show, Andy gave us all a Facebook live tour of the venue as well as a story of some of the wild nights the Dry Bean had. You ALL have some stories there. We know this *wink wink. ;P
Cue kabuki drop and the opening song. There was no stopping for three straight hours. Y'all showed us what a good time is and we made ONE LAST memory here together. We love this.
Thank you Amy! We look forward to the new home you find for The Vine to continue on. Another live music venue only exists in our minds now.
