Just a Jump to the Left

  We just took a short four hour drive down to Norfolk to see a Rocky Horror Picture Show show.  Shane got to be part of the cast and he was going to play anywhere between one to three characters.  Since we made good time on the drive we had time to go to Cook Out and stand around in the parking lot while we ate.
  Since we were there early, Shane ran off to get ready for the show and the rest of us listened to Cultivated Mind Music while we waited for them to open the seating for the show.  The brewery has a back room and that's what they let the Rocky crew use.  One of the people on the cast is dating the son of the owners, so that's how they got such a cool venue.

  Maker's even has a beer named just for the show.  There is a chance that they have the same beer under a different name in their main area.  The last time Steven and Shane came they were the only ones shouting call backs during the show.  Some of the people who had been in the audience the last time even recognized them.

  I took some videos of Shane being the criminologist and we had a great time.  There were other people yelling call backs and while it was great when the whole room was yelling the same thing, it was pretty funny when there were a few different things being yelled.  We all yelled and our voices didn't appreciate it, though you could tell we were rusty on some of the timing.

  The guy manning the bar was even nice enough to pour me one last beer when everyone was cleaning up.  One of the people from the table to our right came over after the show and shook our hands because he said we were very entertaining and that we made his first time really fun.

  I really like some of the things they did with their prop bags.  They gave real noise makers, little lights with their name on it, and foam with color on it for the toast.  I didn't know they had such cool things in their bags and I really wanted one of those lights.  I wondered around the tables after everyone left to see if I could snag one that someone didn't want.  I especially wanted to grab a few things because there was such a mess left around that a lot of the things were just being thrown out.  Not all of it because there were some things they could re-use if they wanted.

  Since a few of us were still pumped after a really good Rocky show it was decided that we should go to The Frog next.  There was some karaoke, some food, and a lot of hydration happening.

  It was probably because we were all tired, but the drive home seemed to take longer than the trip there, even though there was a lot less traffic.  It was so much fun and I would do it again, but probably not too often.
