I wasn’t sure I’d actually make it to this one. I was touring the downtown scene with some coworkers/friends. But 12:30 came about and we were starved for some music, so we headed to the Zoo bar in hopes of catching some Son of 76. My favorite song of theirs is “Water,” but I’ve learned my lesson about shouting out requests after the band started and me missing the song. I was prepared to hear whatever they played.
They mentioned they had time for one more song and asked if anyone wanted to hear “Water,” so I yelled “YES!” And they played it. I got lucky. I got even luckier when they played another super-bluesy dance ballad. As my friend Brenton said while we watched the last song: “This is what the Lincoln music scene should be about.”
