The door was $930 or something, so that comes out to around 132 people&#8230;not to mention 8 tickets given out through GO! and I&#8217;m sure there might have been a couple of other free rides. Once again, the audience was such a pleasure and just fueled our fire. And during the <a href=\"http:\/\/theverticalbar.livejournal.com\/115235.html?nc=10\">Pussy Energy Drink skit<\/a>, you could hardly hear it backstage over the laughter! I knew that would get the most laughs.<\/p>\n<p>I always get super nervous before the skit shows we&#8217;ve done because it&#8217;s such a different type of material. Some of the original plays that have been written could seriously go to competition with nice chances at winning&#8230;however, with the skits, it&#8217;s catering to a completely different audience\/genre. Sure, the two groups might overlap, but I think there&#8217;s still a lot of differences. But I really get giddy when I think of how we are creating something so completely original in this area&#8230;and it seems to be catching on.<\/p>\n<p>The afternoon of the show, Channel 19 did a surprise interview with Jon and I about the upcoming show and Crash Boom Bang. I didn&#8217;t get to see it, so I have no idea what they used. But apparently they want to do something before each of our shows&#8230;woo! Mitch, a continuing supporter of CBB, works at Channel 48 and he&#8217;s going to also get coverage for the next times. Y e s s s s s s.<\/p>\n<p>But now we are shifting gears. It&#8217;s time to prepare to build and create the Haunted House. Yep, Crash Boom Bang is going to have the best Haunted House in Huntsville&#8230;you just wait. It&#8217;ll be open during all of the weekends in October, and come Halloween Night, we are having an after part for the Dixie Derby Girls&#8217; Bout that will be <b>at the Civic Center<\/b> (ie HUGE!!!). They are expecting thousands to attend, and then come to the Mill for the Haunted House\/after party\/bands. It&#8217;s going to be wonderful! Matt&#8217;s goal is to use at least 50 gallons of blood during each &#8220;run&#8221; of the Haunted House. I can&#8217;t wait!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crash Boom Bang had an incredible turnout!
