2018 AudioFeed Fest: Parental Petulance Farewell Show

The morning of our show we had 'band breakfast' in the hospitably room. 

Then did just a little last minute advertising while going about our business.

Soon it was time to head over to the tent we were playing at.  There was a morning devotion going on inside, since we'd be the first band performing that day.  So we had to try and keep the boys quiet until they were done and we could set up.   ha. quiet.

I grabbed a photo with Ashley...   I think this might be the only one we have of the two of us, ever.  She's become such a great friend! 💗

Then: It was time!
Set up is kinda crazy because there is a time constraint and you have to move fast.

So it doesn't take long and it's set up for show time...  Batman was ready!

So was the crowd!

Annnnnnnnd...  we convinced Miles to perform "I Love Bugs" live!  Cooper was always all in, but Miles thought he might be too shy.  They started the show as the very first song on the set list, and they did great! I could tell they were nervous because Cooper didn't dance as much as I thought he would and Miles stared at Cooper the whole time.  But it was so much fun! :)

Then Ashley took over the mic for vocals and off we went!

And it was FUN!  The crowd was having fun and that makes everyone have fun. :)

Some even threw themselves on the floor during our song "Throw Yourself".  haha.

We had several guest spots, one by Jessi, seen here.

And the horns from Must Build Jacuzzi joined in for a song.

Desiring Dead Flesh got up and did a song too.

And our boys are always on and off the stage throughout the show.

Owen was chasing beach balls.

But when he saw the dino piñata get thrown from the stage, he hightailed it down to join the fun!

The kids ripped it up.

Then Coop wore the head around.

It's hard to see everything thats going on while playing, especially since I have to keep an eye on my frets to play the songs right. ha.  But seriously, so.much.fun.

We ended the show by shooting confetti out of a cannon.  You know, just to make a bigger mess. :)

Then we tore down...  and gave all the pool noodles to Desiring Dead Flesh for their future shows.  Since we won't have any. 😢


Miles found a snail during tear down.  Not shocking at all.


You can see the entire livefeed on the Parental Petulance FaceBook page.  Or this video shot from Marshall's phone and from another angle is on the Parental Petulance YouTube channel.  At least check out BugBoy & PolkaWolf, who go first.  :)
 

And with that, an amazingly fun chapter of our lives was closed.  I'm so very happy that Marshall and Ashley gave me a chance at this. ha.  I'm pretty far from punk rocker and a whole lot closer to soccer mom.  But them letting us ride along on their Parental Petulance adventure has been a blast!
