Have You Met The Lone Bellow?

In our previous post, we wrote about our appreciation for the time and graciousness The Lone Bellow members give to fans. One way (possibly our favorite way!) they do this is by sticking around for "meet and greets" after their shows. We see how much of themselves they put into their shows, and can only imagine how exhausted they must feel after, yet they still come out and shake many, many hands, and accept hugs, stories, and chitchat from adoring fans. They give each fan plenty of their time and attention, and never seem to rush anyone along.

We've been honored to meet them several times, and are always amazed that they seem to remember us. We always approach with the intention of thanking them for the show, and perhaps to express gratitude for their music or awe for their talent. But we also tend to feel some apprehension, wondering if maybe this time we shouldn't take up their time, and some nervousness - I've acted like a big dork plenty of times around them. Also, we don't want them to think we are totally stalking them since we go to so many shows! But our desire to shake their hands and say "thank you" has almost always won out, and we are always glad we stuck around.

How about you? Do you say hello to the band after their shows? Do you have any memorable stories to share about meeting them?

Kanene was not at all impressed with Zach's mustache after this show at Mohegan Sun in September, 2014.
