Performances

Asher has never been much of a performing band but at least there are a few pictures that prove that we have played the occasional gig.

2002-07-31 - Art Front Gallery 1
Seth Wilks (bass) joined Asher in July of 2002. Secily suggested we play a few low-key open mic shows to get our sea legs. Aimee came along to help us out.



2002-08-07 - Art Front Gallery 2
The following week Ben decided to join us. The crowd response was positive and we were excited for Matt Wolfertz (drums) to come back to school so we could have a real band!




2002-08-24 - Murray Borders
This was our first gig after Seth and Matt joined the band. With 1,000 freshly pressed copies of To the Face of the Sun, Asher was ready to take on the world - one Borders at a time.




2002-08-29 - UVSC Quad
Seth and James purchased a PA system so we could set up our own gigs. We started an open mic club at UVSC to help promote local bands - as well as ourselves - and to generate income to pay off the PA. We tried to start a similar club at BYU, which would've done really well, but red tape and bureaucracy held up the process. Sadly, this was to be one of Ben's last gigs with us.




2002-09-?? - UVSC "The Bubble
"
This was our first performance after Ben left the group. We were invited to perform at a new dating television show that UVSC was producing. Although they filmed us and made a soundboard recording, we never saw hide nor hair of it. Our good friend Jacob Jenkins, who was acting as our manager at the time, filmed part of the show on his camcorder. Perhaps he will get off his duff and find that tape for us.



2007-10-20 - Living Room Show at Krause Haus
By Fall 2007, we decided that A-Sides was done enough to be released. At that point, we were still finishing up a few things on B-Sides and C-Sides. (It has only took us five more months to put together a website.) James was in Utah with his family for a few days in October. We decided to take advantage of the chance to put on a living room show for our families. I suppose you could call this the official release party of A-Sides. Here are some pictures from that evening. Tom Krause took some great photos - pretty much everything after the first four shots.
