Belly Up

Topic: Belly Up

Belly Up in Solano Beach is a nice place. We were treated nicely, and
the crowd that was there was very enthusiastic. There were dancers
for every song. Playing on Mondays, from my experience, isn't always
easy, but I guess we got about 100 people there tonight.

Tomorrow's the long drive to Santa Cruz, about 7+ hours. I think the
weather is going to change, probably starting to rain mid-afternoon or
so.

It's been an interesting if not hard trip: playing 5 dates in a row is
unusual for BeauSoleil. I think tonight we were on auto pilot and
played very well, considering how tired we all are. I'm looking
forward to a 'day off' in the van!

I see that the Dirty Dozens are now following my tweets. Amazing
thing this technology thing.

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.
