Notes from 30,000 Feet

The entire northern part of the US is covered in snow. I am happy winter is amost over, and I look forward to getting back home and wearing shorts.

It's time to start working on the next trip(s): Austin & West Coast.

Austin's got its own set of of problems, like transportation and lodging. I'm thinking about driving up the day of the show, leaving home @ 5:30 or so. We're playing the Continental Club at 10, so that's doable.

I'll work on it but I need more details about what Pillor & YepRoc have planned for us.

The West Coast trip has transportation problems, which I'll be considering tonight at the hotel. First order of business is to get flights and cars done.

It's hard to do this work on the road!

Coming down to below 10,000 feet.

The Kate, Old Saybrook, CT, 2/11/18

We played the Kate on a very wet Sunday night. It was our third appearance there and as always, the audience was great and so were the staff.   We played a fairly well-rounded set list, mainly to listeners, as there isn’t much room at the Kate to dance.  It was a good show, and afterwards we sold and signed CDs.  It’s always great to see our fans. I hope it’s not 4 more years until we play there again!

Rhodes on the Pawtuxet Mardi Gras show, Cranston, RI, 2/10/18

We’ve played the Rhodes on the Pawtuxet Mardi Gras show many times. It’s put on by Church Wentworth, who also produces the Ninigret Park Labor Day Festival. It was the 26th year of the Mardi Gras show, and the place was rocking! We played a rousing dance set, and we were followed by Nathan and the Zydeco Cha Chas, old friends and great musicians.

The Turning Point, Piermont, NY, 2/9/18

We played the Turning Point on Friday, 2/9.  If you’re not familiar with the place, it’s downstairs from a restaurant, housed in a rather small bar.  John McAvoy, the owner, is quite a character, and he always treats us great.  The place holds 78 max, and I believe there were 85 there! Some day I’d like to see what Piermont looks like in the daylight! We’ve never been able do that.   The audience was very receptive, no dancing allowed (no room), and we played a pretty good ‘sit down set.’ We look forward to our next appearance there!
