You know, I feel like the only mistake, the only REAL mistake, was when Drew said on his Twitter that KOL would be playing. Even though right away the Mercy Lounge denied that they were playing people STILL thought that it would happen.
I know that I think that the joke was hilarious, but then again I didn't go down there and spend money at the bar while waiting around for four hours to realized I'd been Punk'd. I wouldn't go so far as to say it was against the law, but I understand your disappointment. I know that I felt pretty bummed this past fall when I heard rumors that the surprise guest on the final night of the Americana Music Festival was going to be someone amazing (Ahem, Dylan, thanks to Nashville Cream) and it was just some dude I'd never heard of. At the same time, I thought that it was pretty funny just a few hours later, which is why I'm so surprised that it seems like so many people are still enraged.
Maybe Michelle and I should have spilled the beans when we found out who the surprise guest really was last night, but I guess we thought that it was just too funny and didn't want to possibly be wrong or make the Mercy Lounge upset that we gave away the surprise.
Also, I'm sure that it wasn't the intent of the Mercy Lounge to manipulate an audience. I've heard that the only reason SHSP was billed as a surprise guest was because it was one person's birthday, and they wanted to surprise him. You can read an explanation and an apology from Drew himself on Nashville Cream.
Well shit, I tried to comment but ended up deleting comments. Whoops.
'CAUSE I SAY SO, BITCH! Just kidding. Payroll, my ass, Emilio...
I'm trying really hard to monetize this, but it isn't working. In fact, it's just costing me money.
Dude, you know that I know this, and I'm only kidding. One day...
I've actually just bought a year's worth of hosting so that nashvilleforfree.com will actually be nashvilleforfree.com and not just a wordpress blog. I want to see if we can get some ads to help pay for that.
we had fun. i hope at least Some people did, too. it was a surprise indeed for a friend, and he Loved it, if that makes anyone's heart warm slightly.
also, Derrick sent a letter to the paper, but i dunno if they posted it.
Dear Jody
It is illegal to lie. But I dont think you understand what twitter is and that's okay. Anyone can post anything. The Mercy Lounge said special mystery guest and folks out there started to speculate. Even when the mercy lounge twitter said it is not the kings of leon, it was all ignored. Some of the public even lied in their tweets and said creed was playing, or radiohead was playing. Please dont treat twitter like CNN and you wont have to cuss so much.
here is the link
and the misconception that KOL was playing...there was a clue that the mystery band playing hates kings of leon...and he did say it is either kings of leon, beastie boys, wayne of flaming lips or derrick brown of shsp...and it was all ignored. (PS, derrick is playing all tomorrows parties as explained in another clue)

also
the tennessean had a list of the tweets and how folks played "telephone" to unfold the mystery the worng way

he did, and it's here.. "http://blogs.nashvillescene.com/nashvillecream/2009/08/the_brown_note_spring_hill_spi.php"
and that night was rad.
