Lots of other gigs started coming our way. We played other clubs in town, several parties and lots of weddings, which were some of my favorite shows, since we had lots of time to goof off and enjoy the food and drink (including some devastating mead at one particular wedding!). We played some big shows at the Union Ballroom on the UT campus - it was a pain to get the sound right, but that huge hall made us feel important. We helped organize a big multi-band Christmas show (where we played a swing version of Frosty the Snowman that was later requested year round), and even played on the Austin Music Network (including a goofy interview), so we have "professional" video of us that I'll cherish forever. The out-of-town gigs came, too - our first was in Houston, and we couldn't believe that we were renting a van, hauling all our stuff to Houston, staying in a hotel for free, and getting paid. We played in Dallas and San Antonio, too, and always played dirty Mad Libs in the van, and had some great Denny's food at 2:00 AM after the shows.
