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.

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.

Februrary 17, 2009: Back to Work today

Date: February 17, 2009 8:29 AM Topic: Februrary 17, 2009: Back to Work today Today we're doing a set on Acoustic Cafe, taped at Big Sky studios here in Ann Arbor. 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.
