2pm is the new 3pm
SUNDAY APRIL 23RD, LEXINGTON KY--
Last Sunday at 3pm, the Photons took the stage at the Lexington Convention Center for the last day of KY Crafted: The Market.
Am I alone in thinking that 3pm is the worst time of the day? Let’s pause for a second, because I’m not even talking about the show. I just mean - in isolation, considering all possible times of the day - three o’clock is just frustrating, right? If you’re a morning person, this is about the time of day that you run out of steam. Or if you, like me, work a job that prevents you from synchronizing with the rest of the world, then 3pm marks the mental shift from “citizen just going about her day” to “employee preparing to endure the next eight hours.” If you’re somewhere in the middle, can we maybe still agree that 3pm is too late to really start anything, but too early to conceive of such rituals as Getting Ready For Bed?
Maybe it’s just me?
At any rate, the band played so well that my usual 3pm-induced anxiety went unnoticed. (3pm on a Sunday, no less! Thanks, guys! I digress). Actually, due to a misprint (2 and 3 are very close together on the keyboard), two-thirds of the band arrived and was informed that they were supposed to be going on in a few minutes...
At 2pm.

Thankfully, the dapper gentlemen of Small Time Napoleon agreed to switch time slots, and the band played on.
...Except we can’t really call it “switching,” because I think they were also under the impression that they were to play at 3pm.
If you missed Phourist & the Photons this past Sunday, you can catch them at Walden School on May 13th in support of Hal & Ben’s Bike In. More details to come!
