Hard To Let Me Down – Rooftop, Indianapolis, Indiana

About Hard To Let Me Down: Acting on their rooftop fantasy, Valentiger scaled this closed-down Taco Bell near a busy intersection. Halfway through setup, a concerned citizen pulled into the vacant lot and interrogated Rider, with Shirey already on the roof. He did his best to explain but the man still took down Valentiger’s license plate and, rightfully so, called the police. The man then left and Valentiger worked quickly. Kehoe couldn’t quite monkey his way up the building as Shirey had, so the band settled to have him play the song solo with his gutiar. Even though the arrival of cops was invariable, they did two takes on account of the wind. Afterward, they quickly lowered the equipment from the roof and fled the scene. Though they had escaped the law at this point, Rider had told the vigilante the band was to perform at Melody Inn later that night. They expected to find police waiting for them upon arrival.
