“that Bruce had mentioned in the coffee shop was the name of the venue where Brandee was going to play that night. It was a small setting (about 650 capacity), situated in Grand Junction, CO. When Jake and Brandee had planned this tour, they knew that they would get into sparsely populated territory when they climbed into the Rocky Mountain region. They had scheduled the Laramie stop and then were left needing places to play as they worked their way back west. They had a performance planned ...in Jackpot, Nevada the next day but that was almost 700 miles away. That was much too long to ask the group to travel and then perform the same night. However, as Jake pointed out, playing only one night in three wasn't going to pay the freight. They needed something between Laramie and Jackpot. Brandee talked her way into an invitation to The Opera House in Grand Junction. It was only 300 miles from Laramie and would leave them a manageable 500 miles to get to Jackpot. It was a grueling couple of days, and the pay wasn't going to be great at either The Opera House in Grand Junction or Sneaky Pete's Casino in Jackpot, but it kept Brandee in groceries until they made it back to the West Coast where the venues would be larger again. Brandee Evans was looking forward to both The Opera House and to Sneaky Pete's. She liked being the only performer on the card. Ideally, of course, she wanted to be the headliner of a large card of performers. Since they hadn't gotten that far, though, she liked being the only act.MoreLessRead More Read Less
