North Bay - Part 1

It's funny. Lindsay and I seem to go to North Bay a lot now. But the fact is we only know 4 people who live there. Two couples. Oddly enough, one couple got married last summer and the other got married this summer. I guess we will have no reason to go anymore but we still will. North Bay is a great town full of great people (and we certainly know more than 4 of them now). Both times, we went we had a blast.

This time I was in Jamie and Steph's (you will see them below) wedding. We met Jamie and Steph three years ago in Taichung. We taught at the same school and we became good friends. Jamie and I also formed an acoustic duo called the Double Standard. We ended up playing quite a bit in Taichung and got sort of popular (or at least, I like to think we did). It was great.

Speaking of the Double Standard, here we are doing a little reunion show at the rehearsal party. We hadn't played for about two years (though we played a little bit last summer) but it went rather well. There's a video clip of us on Facebook doing a couple of Modest Mouse tunes, if you are interested. I must warn you though, that I hit a few too many wrong notes.

At the wedding, my job was to walk Steph's mom, Anna down the aisle. The bride going down the aisle with her dad, Frank.
The new bride and groom. Lindsay and I in their backyard (this is where the wedding took place).
The Double Standard all dressed up.
The tuxes we rented were great but wearing suspenders is a little different. The pants are so high, it feels like you have a constant wedgie. But, I must say, we looked good.
