Have you noticed? Ventura, Calif.’s Champagne Sunday has been booked at every festival and building in Tacoma this month. And when I say “building,” I don’t just mean the music venues. So far, they’ve popped up at the Old Town Blues Festival, Art on the Ave, the Mandolin Cafe, the Spar Tavern and now – L.A. Fitness? Seriously, they’re at the one on Sixth Avenue right now for customer appreciation day, along with a lot of fitness buffs with their iPods turned way up. Tough (and weird) gig. But a working band’s gotta get its grind on, right?

Oh, and just kidding about the bus stop thing (I think.) They’re a decent pop-rock band, and they’re playing here next.
