So Allyse has a good friend Sam in Salt Lake who books bands etc. She has been to alot of concerts with Sam etc. So she gets a call from Sam in late July telling her there is going to be a band in Boise that night and she should go hear them, they are pretty good. So she and a friend go and meet up the Jason who is Sams Business partner and the Band Manager of Mesa Drive (the before mentioned band). At 10 pm I get a call from Allyse who is checking in with me because she has invited the band to stay the night. It was a last minute booking and they didn't have a hotel yet. They didn't want to impose, but Allyse knows me too well and assures them that they would be welcome and everyone in the house would love it (Dil and Rae were out town). We did love it! I hurried and got beds and couches ready and downloaded their CD from itunes so I could at listen to them and I even really like them. The next morning Ifixed a big breakfast and mentioned they may have to "play" for their breakfast so afterwards the lead singer Chad Hansen and his brother Marc broke out their acoustic guitars and played for about an hour with Chad explaining what inspired him to write each song. It was way cool and they were way good. They dubbed me their Idaho mom and I assured them that they can always crash here...for just one song!
