The Wrath

Sometimes it's weird how things can go from great to bad so quickly. The last couple days have been just like that. Things were just moving along going great and then came Wednesday night. We all knew that Georges was back in town, he left to go to Korea and Beijing, because we could hear him yelling at people on Skype all the way down the hall. So we pretty much knew that he wasn't in a such a great mood. When he showed up to our show Wednesday night, we knew for sure that he wasn't in a good mood. We had already done one set and were in the middle of the second set when we noticed him. He usually comes in and makes himself known but this time he was kind of quiet and just sat in a corner where we could barely see him. But it didn't really matter because we were doing a great job like we usually do. As soon as the set ended he called us all over to a corner and let us have it. He just yelled like we had done the worst show he had ever seen. It was so weird. We did the same show we always do and we did an awesome job. But it seemed like all the things he liked from before now all of a sudden weren't good anymore. After that we still had one more set to do, and of course it made us all stressed. Then after the last set we had another lecture, and at the end he told us, "I'll be here tomorrow, the next day, the next day, and the next day, and so on," like it was a threat. After that then we all just went to our rooms and went to bed.
The next day I got up did my normal thing and then came back and noticed I had a missed call from JD. So I called him back and he said, "uh we have kind of an emergency," so immediately I thought someone was hurt or sick. It wasn't anything that bad but he told me that the hotel was overbooked and I had to give up my room so I had like 20 minutes to get all my stuff together and move into Andrea's room. That was not a simple task, my stuff is spread out everywhere like I'm home, because this is my home right now, so it was quite a job. I threw everything into my suitcases and into his room and then it was time for rehearsal, I had to miss lunch and I was starving!! So then rehearsal was alright until about 2 hours in and Georges shows up for more lecture time. So then we get more of the same stuff about how horrible were doing and how it's going to suck so bad in Oman for us if we perform like this and so on and on. And he ended by letting us know he'd be there again tonight. By the time he finished we only had time to run one more song, so now he have to add an extra rehearsal day.
Then dinner time came and that was uneventful other than I was starving so it tasted AMAZING! Then we were up doing shows, the first set passed and it was great. Then the next set Georges was up there watching us again....Goody! We put on a great show again, the audience loved it again and we felt great about it. And you know what? He was in a good mood so things were OK again! Imagine that! How odd. So after everything it was a normal end to a couple bad days and I will take that normal anytime!
