Yesterday was our performance at eTown, with Nick and Helen Forster.

I knew it was going to be a long hard day, but we all did well. We
loaded in at 3 and proceeded to sound check. The finale song was a
CCR tune whose name I cannot remember right now. "It was long
ago.....I know...." Oh yeah, something about the rain: "Who'll Stop
the Rain" That's how tired I am now at 7am!

I got to play a little 30 second interlude with Nick, which was fun.
He had Michael's Loar mandolin and I had a 1920's L-5. We did "Billy
in the Lowground."

After the show, everyone was invited to a reception at a restaurant
called Centro here in Boulder. The food was very good, as was the
beer. Being so tired and sleepy, I came back to the hotel at 10:30
and was asleep by 11:30.

We're departing the hotel at 1:30 for the drive to DIA/DEN. Our SW
flight's at 4:45. I would imagine we'll be eating at the Frontier
Restaurant in Albuquerque.

The tour continues!
