\n\tMisterWives graced The<\/span> Green Room stage, on Saturday, October 5th, to kick off Austin\u2019s biggest annual music festival. \u201cThis is definitely the nicest green room we have been in, by a lot,\u201d Mandy Lee declared. Lee, who is the frontwoman of MisterWives, sat alongside her four bandmates, looking out onto the South Congress Hotel event space, flooded with Texas cacti and dressed in PATR\u00d3N Tequila<\/a>-themed installations. \u201cI\u2019ve been in much smaller ones,\u201d William Hehir, bassist, confirmed, laughing in awe at The Green Room\u2019s charm.<\/p>\n \n\tTypically, The Green Room is reserved as an exclusive backstage haven for artists. However, PATR\u00d3N Tequila and Rolling Stone\u2019s The Green Room event granted fans an exclusive opportunity to get up close and personal with their favorite artists, for a once-in-a-lifetime look behind the scenes. Needless to say, guests were not disappointed, as the performance by MisterWives blew all expectations out of the water.<\/p>\n \n\tPrior to their performance, MisterWives joined Rolling Stone News Supervising Producer, Delisa Shannon, for an exclusive interview. During the conversation, they sipped PATR\u00d3N Ranch Water cocktails, spoke candidly of the band\u2019s longstanding history and shared exciting plans for the future.<\/p>\n \n\tThe Green Room performance kicked off MisterWives\u2019 Just For One Night Tour!<\/em>, which will be their last for a while, after a ten year run of touring. The band, who formed in 2012, is looking forward to taking a much-needed break and celebrating a decade of hard work on the road. \u201cThe rug could be pulled from underneath you at any point in time, and so everything is something to celebrate,\u201d Hehir mentions, explaining the importance of recognizing milestones like this tour. \u201cYou never know if it\u2019s going to happen again and you can\u2019t take it for granted when it does.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tBecause of the significance of this tour, MisterWives decided to shake up the set list. For the first time, the band invites fans into the process of song selection. \u201cWe\u2019ve not stopped for ten years, so we wanted to bring all the fans in so they could vote on [songs] we wouldn\u2019t typically play, in this cycle for the new album, and get to cover our whole catalog,\u201d Lee said. This method has clearly proved effective, as Green Room guests found themselves nostalgically grooving to deep cuts, as well as learning about new tracks at Saturday\u2019s performance. \u201cIt was really nice to see just the wide range of everybody\u2019s favorites,\u201d Lee admits.<\/p>\n
