This past weekend 1% Productions opened up a brand new venue, the Waiting Room Lounge. The last two nights, they've played a couple of shows to get the venue warmed up, but tonight's show, an invitation only event (tickets provided by a Mr. Brandon Bone), got the venue started off right. Flowers Forever got the sound system going, and soon after the Faint brought the 250 person capacity venue to its knees. With a solid mix of material from their last 3 albums, I can say with ease that the concert tonight was the best one I've ever been to. It was a unique experience in that I got to see one of my favorite bands in the most intimate venue they've played in at least the last 5 or 6 years, and probably their last in Omaha on the Saddle Creek record label.

So yeah, that's the reason I've had the mega-Faint playlist for the last few days. I've got a picture of the sweet handmade ticket below, and after I get back from Miami on Friday, I should have a few more pictures from the show posted.
