Episode #57 - Night Demon's First Show - Part 1

After an amazingly fruitful two-month period in which Night Demon
wrote and recorded all four songs for their debut EP, it was time
to entertain offers for gigs.  You will hear how Night Demon
were offered and turned down the opportunity to open for Accept
and Sabaton in May 2011, and how Armand and Dusty’s band New
Liberty took the slot in their stead.  The irony is twofold,
in that Armand and Dusty went on to join Night Demon, and Night
Demon went on to open for Accept on an extended European run in
early 2018.  In the meantime, Jarvis’s main band at the
time, Jeff Hershey and the Heartbeats, was primed and ready to
release a full-length record that had been years in the
making.  But Jarvis was drawn to Night Demon and the
effortless magic of his collaboration with Brent and Pat. 
Eventually, the door opened for Night Demon to make its live
debut opening for a Thin Lizzy tribute band featuring Armand on
lead guitar at the Bombay Bar and Grill in Ventura in May
2011.
