Check out this entry on the Meade Blog. He can just barely contain his bitterness:
"I drove up tonight to play at Market Street Coffee in Leesburg. It was right slow the whole night. I had at the maximum five people. I did sell an album and the baristas split their tips with me. Still, I only made about 30$ . These two girls I went to high school with Aubrey and Brooke came out. But they didn't stay long and wanted alcohol and left with some guy to get a drink. I didnt see them after that. It was nice of them to come though. The weather was good though- not bitterly cold. They had the door open. My dissapointment came from that I thought for sure there would be plenty of folks streaming in from the Taly Ho theater which was right next door- but hardly anyone was at the movies. I guess people were worn out from Christmas shopping- and maybe I just picked the wrong night. I did enjoy the drive through. The area of Loudoun is really beautiful. Its odd to be back there. But I still have mixed feelings about the area I grew up in. It was a bitter sweet experience for me. I was glad to see Aubrey and Brooke though. Too bad they didn't stay. Some people need their booze, I guess. The drive back to Richmond was pretty smooth. I just wished more people had shown up. The whole downtown of Leesburg was more dead than a cemetary."
