At the 2008 show Benny played with the band but was not yet a official member. He killed it that night along with the rest of the band.
Thats also the night Carolyn got her bag lifted by some wacked out patron but it was successfully retrieved with a little help from Sparky!!

Was wondering why Toad's didn't start the public sale for these tix on June 1 as originally announced ... just got an e-mail that the show at Toad's has been cancelled.
Yep, just got the email too....
that stinks!
Have faith - they don't belong at Toad's Place anyway! We've been so lucky in the past. But that's about to change. I must say that because of this cancellation, I hope they let a few of us earlybirds into the NYC show (if there is room)! Sadly, I have nothing on my calendar now for any summer shows, however, I was lucky enough to see them in Greenwich last weekend - a good fix, but it won't last all summer! Fingers crossed for MV and Nantucket!
Here's the email:
Hello,
Unfortunately Grace Potter and the Nocturnals are being forced to cancel their show at Toad's Place due to a scheduling conflict beyond their control. Your credit card will be automatically refunded for the tickets that you purchased. Grace wanted to personally reach out to apologize for any inconvenience that this caused you and requested that we send the note below.
"Dearest Earlybirds,
Firstly, thank you for being awesome and supporting live music. I am deeply bummed to have to cancel our show at Toads Place. We don't like canceling shows any more than you don't like a show being cancelled! We wouldn't do it if it wasn't a matter of intergalactic importance. (Yes, we must save the planet from evil MartiansI assure you me & the Nocturnals will be back to Connecticut soon!
Did anyone ever figure out what was the matter of Intergalactic importance? I only ask because ironically I just walked past Toad's Place.
My guess is that it has something to do with restrictions on the KC/TM tour about playing other shows within a certain radius of where the KC/TM show is? just a hunch, but who knows...
Grace said on Twitter that she is making an annoucement Sat. at 6:00pm (seems like right after they get off stage in NJ!!) about a NY show in the fall.
Cool! Thanks for the heads up Eric!
