(just in case you can't tell, that's a row of melodicas on the sidewalk leading right up to our van)we felt pretty great about it. and sure enough, the show was a blast. cynics be damned! we will take our spray painted melodica omens however we please!
we were in west virginia on monday night, our second visit to the lovely purple fiddle since the beginning of 2009. we love that place a lot.
also interesting: we played a haunted house in kentucky over the weekend. it was called the southgate house, and the inventor of the tommy gun grew up there. we heard all sorts of amazing ghost stories from the bartender, sharon, who has worked there for 15 years. she has had countless experiences that could convince even the most devout of disbelievers (talk about an oxymoron). here we are sitting on some ghostly pillars outside the venue:
tonight we are playing in annapolis at the ram's head tavern. after the show we are sleeping on the bus with glenn and co. after sleeping on the bus we are going to new jersey. after new jersey we are going to new york, for our final show with this amazing group of people. then we will cry. then it will be heather's birthday and all hell will break loose.this is a lot of driving:

Awesome melodicas :)
Just wanted to say that I had a fabulous time at World Cafe last night! You sounded lovely as always, and watching you perform makes me smile. Hopefully I will catch your show in Cleveland in May, which I'm hoping is a full set?!
Hey Gang! Speaking of WV: The Spring Standards were on Mountain Stage back in February. Most stations will carry that show during the weekend of May 15-17. A list of stations that carry Mountain Stage can be found here: http://www.mountainstage.org/mtnstageaffiliates.aspx
The following week their set will be posted at npr.org/mountainstage and archived for continued access. E-mail me and I'll send you some pics from the evening.
