B&E Does the Double Door

B&E drove up, caravan-style, to Chicago last weekend to open up the Double Door on Friday the 13th. Now we're home, and looking back, we had a blast.

Despite our ampersand being replaced with a "+" and being listed as "BE", the show was fantastic, the sound was incredible and the other bands were great.

Thinking back to when we started as just a duo playing acoustic guitars at a dark, dank J&A's -- damn, we've come a long way to make it on that stage.

The set was all killer, no filler and we sobered up to some real Chicago-style pizza on Saturday afternoon.

Ended up hanging out with the guys in A Modern Bison, and we'll hopefully bring those guys down to St. Louis for a show soon.

Thanks to the venue, all those who showed up, our friends who made the trip with us and the bands: The Webstirs, Coventry and A Modern Bison.

It was a great weekend, "worst band manager ever" Tad Trier came along and we even got to meet up and hang with former B&E bassist Johnny Castle.

Here are a few pics of the crew and show: (More photos can be seen here.)
