Belly Up

Date: April 7, 2009 2:25 AM
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.

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!

FitzGerald’s American Music Festival, Berwyn, IL

Date: July 2, 2009 11:59 AM Topic: FitzGerald's American Music Festival, Berwyn, IL It's amazing how Fitzgerald can alter his club to accommodate an event with so much entertainment and yet keep the Fitzgerald's feel. The groups that played were amazing, from Bill Kirchen to Marcia Ball, and of course BeauSoleil. Since we had flown in on the day of the first show, July 1, we were a bit tired but played very well inside the club stage. On Thursday, after getting rest, we played the outdoor stage and really kicked it up. Points to note for this trip, and more specifically O'Hare airport: Continental has moved its gates to the United Terminal, in anticipation of the Star Alliance merger later this year. No more Northwest and Delta!
