One band is enough sometimes. Two or three can make for a pretty good show. For the rest of the tour we played with 4 other bands every night except one when there was a sixth band thrown on at the last minute. We played each night with Rachel Brooke, Those Poor Bastards, High Lonesome, and .357 Stringband. At the Filling Station, Trampled by Turtles joined the set. This is something like a hundred musicians - not really, a promoter - sort of, and one awesome sound guy, Dean. (Big props to Dean.)

For the whole scoop, and there definitely is one, talk to us in person. But suffice it to say this last week was a carnival. Trying to maintain energy (after everything else we had done) was the main challenge. Every night was the same in that it was completely different… Again, if this seems cryptic, it is deliberately so.

The good parts; we met so many interesting musicians and played in some really great spaces.

Notes:
Hey Dean, where are those last 2 discs, man?
Wyatt, after those 5 nights, I really understand that first song on your set.
Derek, next time I would try the 5-iron. Heavy enough to get the job done, light enough to swing.
I hope some of you didn’t get arrested.

over.
