We went to the hospital before the IF show and got checked out. Muscle relaxers were prescribed, along with aspirin, ice packs, and taking it easy for a few days.
The IF show was a 21 and up gig and Cody is only 20, but he really wanted to come. Jesse and the guys developed a plan to have Cody become the honorary 5th member of the band. This meant that Cody had to be on stage with the guys most of the set. He played the APC, Atari Punk Console, which is basically a sound effects machine. You turn dials to make different sound effects. Cody attended the IF practice on Wednesday evening and practiced with the guys, so he had the timing down pat. Half way through the set Adam, the guitarist, introduced Cody to the Colorado music scene as the 5th member of the band.
P.S. Jesse is completely nuts.
He said he wasn't going to do his typical jumping around dancing thing on stage, but then he did it anyway. Sore muscles and all. Sometimes after a particularly rockin' show Jesse will wake up the next day stiff and sore. Add to that an already stiff neck due to the accident and you get some serious pain. It seems like Jesse doesn't have as intense of a case of whiplash as I do, but he still is hurting. After the show he said he just couldn't stand still while he was on stage, besides Erin we have muscle relaxers to take.
