The Janks and The Wind at The Bootleg

The Monday night rotation continued with me heading off to the Bootleg on a Monday night. The Janks
are the residency band for March and The Wind was in support.  Here's one thing I noticed:  The Wind had problems with their bass and so needed a new bass.  The Janks had a problem with their snare drum and so needed a new snare drum.  Guys from other bands quickly jumped in to help, running to the back room of the Bootleg to find the necessary musical instrument.  I so love this.  It means that the bands stick around for each other.  Occasionally you go to a venue and bands appear and disappear around their set times, not sticking around for the other bands.

The Wind gave us some smooth rock.  One joke from a friend, "The bassist didn't get the memo."  Yes, he was the only one without long hair.  As for The Janks:  rock ballad.  That's what I thought.  Queen was mentioned during their set.  It seemed appropriate.  And there was some cool dancing being done by their friends during one song.
