OCTOBER! A PRIVATE OKTOBERFEST!
Brave Combo at Ron & Jeanne Smith Home in Arlington, Texas
The most fancy house in the neighborhood – tubs full of iced down German beer & wine, gobs of German food & strudel. We played in the small living room while guests pigged outside.
Finally at about midnite the hardcore partyers were left, and they wanted rock ‘n roll, so we obliged ’til 1:30 AM or so. We even had a man there in a bunny suit among the normal German costumes.
I felt a different sense of time tonight, as if our tunes were over almost as soon as we’d begun.
$300 + food, drink
