Casino Run

This week I got to do to casinos back-to-back. I've never been to either one so it's pretty exciting to perform in two new venues.
   First up is the Tulalip Casino. It is a huge casino with a very Grand Ambiance, really nice looking inside. The show room is nice and holds probably about 300 people, although only 30 show up. The crowd is sparse and they are not laughing at much at all. Basically this set was terrible, I never connected with the audience and I left feeling pretty shitty. I ended up getting bad reviews from the house manager, but fortunately the booker didn't really care and I'm sure I'll end up being back soon.
   Up next was the Muckleshoot Casino. This is also a very huge casino inside with a million slot machines. This set went way better than the first one, I walked offstage feeling pretty good about myself. The sound guy was cool and the audience was small but with it. Afterwards me and done and I'm getting accosted by a random patron telling us that he was going through withdrawals or some shit. He was really weird. Me and Don then left immediately and drove home.
