I'm not sure if this Starcrawler set officially counts as my first night out catching live music since the re-opening up of Los Angeles due to COVID-19. The band was trimmed down to two members who did an acoustic, mini-set for the book signing of "Permanent Damage: Memoirs of an Outrageous Girl." The book is an autobiography by Mercy Fontenot and written by Lyndsey Parker. Mercy Fontenot was a member of GTO's band. Does it count as an official first outing when the focus is on a book release? Let's use a sports analogy and call it a pre-season outing.
It has been years since I last saw Starcrawler live and in-person. It was a thrill seeing them and being in a crowd. There were around 50 people crowded into the patio of Stories Books & Cafe. After their short set, the band got cheers from the crowd and a request for an encore. The band declined as up next was a funny and emotional telling of the life of Mercy Fontenot.
