Last Wednesday night Vespertine Movement played a big show at one of our favorite local venues, The 8x10, but this night was a lot different than our normal shows. We headlined this event called the Stache Bash, the touring rock and roll party that celebrates the mustache in its entirety. The Stache Bash has been hitting clubs all throughout the Northeast and we were signed on to headline the one in Baltimore, sharing the stage with Conshafter, Della Valle, and one of Baltimore's most popular local bands The Grilled Lincolns.
The night was filled with a bunch of mustaches, both real and fake, and some of our fans went all out and wore hilarious costumes. Halfway through the night, the sponsors of the event had a mustache contest and our friend Brian won best costume with his impression of Ron Burgundy from "Anchorman", and our friend Casey won best fake mustache. The club was very crowded and we had a good turnout for a Wednesday night show. This was the first show that we headlined at the 8x10, so we really had to do our best to bring out a big crowd and play a solid set. Since three of us could not grow out a mustache for the event we wore crazy costumes as well. Guzzi (rhythm guitar) was Spider Man with a mustache, Owen (bass) wore a crazy, mismatched suit, and I (drums) was a 70's basketball player with a mustache. John (lead guitar) was the only one who had facial hair, and he just rocked out the old fashioned beard. We had over an hour to play, and we rocked the club with one of our best set lists we have ever played. It was a fun show and a very big success for both Vespertine Movement and the club, and we have a lot of funny stories and pictures from the fun night .
