With the season winding down this week, the Mets are having rock band COUNCIL play this Tuesday before the game with the Reds.
METSTALK.COM: You’ll be playing at Citi Field on September 27th before the Mets take on the Cincinnati Reds. How did the band get the chance to play there and at what other venues and with what other bands have you played?
PAT: Well it’s really Lori Martini that gave us this chance. We met her at our Sullivan Hall show in March and realized very quickly we were all huge New York Mets fans. She proposed the idea of our band making a rock version of her song, “Believe.” [–Editor’s Note: Mets fans may recognize that song as one of Justin Turner’s walk-up songs.]
We thought it was a great idea and that got the ball rolling for us to be playing at Citi Field.
