McCabe's

Topic: 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.

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!
