Austin: SXSW

Topic: Austin: SXSW

We arrived at the hotel around 8pm.

Cindy Cashdollar suggested Evita's Botanita Restaurant for supper, and
it was good! It's not Tex-Mex; rather, it's real Mexican, which is
quite different.

After dinner, we passed by Bill Giebitz's house to drop off 2 of my
guitars. He said he'd have them done fairly quickly, so I'll drop off
the dreadnaught tomorrow.

I Twittered the entire way here, and I'm still try to figure it out.
I got Facebook with no problem, and I did overcome the problems with
Blogging. I'm just not sure what the hell Twitter is. I've been
Tweeting left and right; I just haven't figured out what can be done
with it.

Oh, well, I'm tired. I'm glad we came in the night before. I'm sure
we would have been extremely tired if we had done the trip in one day.

Carpenter Center, Long Beach, CA, 9/26/9

Though it was a long day of travel, we had a good show at the Carpenter Center. Iris Dement opened the show and was well received. She played about 45 minutes and we played for about 75. Lots of fans were lined up afterwards for CD signings, and when it was all over and done with, we were just plain exhausted. Next up: Askenaz in Betkeley. [Posted with iBlogger from my iPhone]

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.
