The boys played two shows at the Mercury at the end of the summer of 2000.
I'll put up exact dates when I remember what they were. The second show was unadvertised and maybe on Tuesday, August 29th. Sound right?

As always, all photos copyright by Alex Myers 2000.

Photo of everyone setting up before the first show.
 

Rhett, early during show one. You can tell because he isn't sweating.

Rhett, getting more worked up.

Ken got to play Rick Nelson's guitar before it was given away at a Cheap Trick Hoot Night.
(That's my friend Chris right in front.)

For some reason, I really like photos of Rhett adjusting his mike stand.

Rhett was getting VERY sweaty. Look, there's Noah in the green shirt ...

Rhett and Murry. This was near the end of the show. He'd already forgotten tons of lyrics but we sang them for him.

This is my FAVORITE photograph of Rhett. He should have a copy of it somewhere.
This was shot during the scream in "Doreen", the last song of the first show.
That dark blue color is sweat. His shirt is really the pale blue color on his right arm. Amazing.
 
 

MERCURY SHOW 2
 

Rhett, in another blue shirt. He had on some sexy t-shirt before the show but changed into this. Grrrr.
 

I think Ken was posing for my camera.  What do you think?

Murry, having a blast during "Can't Get a Line" ...
 

I have no idea why this happened. It was between songs.
I think Murry was telling a story and Rhett decided to join him in the story.
