Just for the record, I don’t think Tim picked a fight with that guy; the Greenberg guy was being pretty confrontational, and I think the Greengerg guy recognized that he was in the wrong, not Tim, because he later saw fit to apologize and they both shook hands. It was a minor thing, really.
Yeah, sorry. Was joking there in blaming Tim, but sometimes it gets lost in text form. I, too, saw the guy apologizing; and I also took a moment between the incident and the apology to just say, “hey, sorry; we saw one guy (Evan) pull into the doorway and thought it was ok, but we don’t need to do it,” and he kind of calmed down after that. We just wanted to be as efficient as possible; weren’t trying to step on his toes, and besides – he’s the guy who wasn’t near the door when the other guys told Evan he could pull up. Not our fault the Gatekeeper left his post. Same other guys told me I could do the same, but to wait until Evan moved out… but I’m glad I parked outside and came in to ask b/c the Gatekeeper prob would have chewed me out too if I had just pulled right in.
Anyway, aside from the confusion Friday regarding our location which hindered our setup (which could be somewhat alleviated, as Josh said, by registering earlier) and the minor misunderstandings at the loading door today, it wasn’t too bad. I would still consider doing another Greenberg show, although January is pretty soon. However, looks like they’re already booked for July @ Monroeville, as well: http://www.greenbergshows.com/schedule.html
