Back at the Vienna Wolf Trap Hotel

Topic: Back at the Vienna Wolf Trap Hotel

It's good to be back in Vienna. Two dates left on the tour, and we're
all ready to get home on Saturday.

The drive down the New Jersey Turnpike was uneventful, but we did hit
some traffic near DC on our way to the Peking Duck Restaurant in
Alexandria, VA. The food was superb! I also think everyone was happy
to have eaten there yesterday rather than for lunch today; I don't
think anyone would have had the energy to play music tonight! What an
experience.

The weather is moderating, though it's 22 degrees now. I think the
high today will be in the 50s. Enough of the cold.

I'm starting to work up the West Coast tour at the end of the month.
Lots of logistics involved.

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.  

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]
