If your reading this then congratulations you found a hidden piece of HomeGold. The “bonus track' is my entire set @ Height Vinyl (Houston,TX) during tour circa 2019. This tape is special to me for 3 reasons.
1.I had never met the musicians until 30 minutes before the show. In fact, we had no band scheduled for Houston until randomly bumping into the legendary Bel-Ami during the NY leg of the tour and he referred us to Ike. The Ike referred us to the band. Just 5 days before the show. We met at soundcheck
2. We were the last show at Heights Vinyl before the venue closed for good. The owner actually informed us that he originally was going to cancel the show but since he like the mission behind our tour he kept the venue open for one more show. So from a mic in the ceiling, he taped the last set at his club.
3. The set itself was one of my favorite musical memories. An intimate crowd of no more than 15 people but it felt like magic. Pure magic. Special shout to Ken, Ray, Zane, Kid Astronavt, Nico Martinez, Brendie, Harmony, and Brionne Aigne for making HomeGold moment with me.
I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I did making it. Feel free to draw inspiration from it.
Sending Love + Energy,
Wayne Watts
