Mckay is a drummer in the band Shamrock 19. Myspace link with posted songs (This name comes from the initial practice location being at our house off of Shamrock Road and the fact that the band, being made up of LDS guys, would have to break up when they all turned 19 and went to serve missions for the LDS church.
(sorry this picture's color is distorted, I don't know why...but you get the idea. McKay is front and center)When I was home this May, I got to see them perform quite a bit at different events. So the most exciting thing is that Mckay told me that the band was found on Myspace and invited to perform at the 9:30 Club on February 5th!!!!!!!
ISN'T THAT FREAKING AWESOME.
The 9:30 Club! I mean, this is pretty well known in D.C. I went there after my high school graduation (although I admit, I wasn't as into it then...sorry guys) And pretty much anyone from that area knows it. In fact, as I was looking at the listing of performances I saw The Fray, Jimmy Eat World, Katy Perry, 3 Doors Down, Switchfoot and others.
And well, then I stumbled onto the performace listing for February and there on the date of FEb. 5, the day McKay said they are performing, is who? JAMES MORRISON
You might not know him, but I've been listening to his latest album for a couple months now and the guys good. How random that I know the guy that Mckay's basically opening for....if that's how it's all worked out, I don't know.
So check out James Morrison; I like the "You Make it Real" track.
And so....I'm seriously thinking about flying out to D.C. for all this in Feb. Plus Susie will be back from Spain and maybe I can play with her for a few days before she leaves for her mission. I checked out tickets and they are only about $200 so I guess we shall see. Anyways, exciting stuff...go Mckay and Shamrock 19. facebook group
