It was a long afternoon and evening at the Townsend Center. We
arrived around 2:45 and Michael and Mitchell went straight to the
workshop. The rest of us set up the equipment.

We sound checked around 4:30 or so and then waited for dinner to
arrive. After dinner, we decided to stay at the venue until showtime,
which was at 7:30.

The event was huge, as this was the Center's fundraiser, all with an
after show dance with drinks and finger foods.

It was all good, and hopefully we'll be able to come back to
Carrollton, GA to perform again. It's always great to be invited to
new venues.

Hard day

The Ark gig went well. Good crowd & merch sales. We passed by Elderly Instruments in Lansing on the way to Grand Rapids. Then we hit the road, arriving at the hotel at 3:30. We left for a radio interview/performance at 4:15 at WYCE. After doing 2 songs, we went to the venue, the Ladies Literary Club. Nice place, nice renovation. The last time we played there was April 19, 1997. Packing for the flight to MSP.

The Art Center, Carrboro, NC

Date: August 9, 2009 11:28 AM Topic: The Art Center, Carrboro, NC It was another trip to the Art Center in Carrboro. It's always been a good venue for the group, and this time was no different. Lots of tickets were sold and I think the show was close to a sell out. Instead of playing two sets, which would have increased our merchandise sales, we opted for one long set, one very long set, 2 hours worth. Sometimes I think making decisions like playing a long set isn't always a good idea. It's hard to perform that long, but I do know that it's sets like that which go into the record books. I don't think anyone had a bad time. I do think we wore out the audience, however.

Tonight we got the Ark, a place we've been playing at since 1982 or 83. The tour is starting up big time, as we'll be playing more. So 1 down, 13 to go.
