McCabe's

McCabe's is a cool and interesting venue. During the day it's a music/
guitar store, and at night it's a concert hall, seating about 150
people. On the walls are a bunch of odd and old instruments, and the
place is just jam packed with old guitars, new guitars, mandolins,
ukes, miscellaneous musical stuff, etc. And they sell a lot of
instructional books and CDs.

It's a great place, and in fact, it's the most fun place I've
performed at in LA.

We did two sets, and the sound was great. The audience was extremely
attentive, and by far this was one of the top shows we've done on this
trip.

Staying at the Travelodge across the street made the entire experience
easy, from our viewpoint.

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.
