    I'm supposed to work the night of Yarn @ Roy's Hall ~ Blairstown, NJ - 5/12/18, but I think I feel a sick day coming on strong...


    Who else is going?

    I second Bob’s sentiment. Wow. Blairstown is a great theatre with an orchestra pit area below the stage, making it perfect for both dancers and people who choose to sit, because the seated area is raised so you can see over the people standing below. The perfect recipe for a good time... HOWEVER, someone chose to put seats in the pit. It was fun to see people double taking when they walked in due to those seats- obviously disappointed. In the recording during Musics Only Outlaw you may hear a bit of a commotion, as our friend Bob lead the charge to remove those damn seats so the dancing could commence— good job taking charge Bob! Much appreciated by ALL. Overheard some people talking before the show telling their friends “wait to you hear this band live, you can’t imagine how great they are, etc. etc.”. Made me smile knowing that others feel the same way we do. Spotted lots of people singing along to songs old and new... knowing ever word. After a couple of emotional shitty weeks in my life, two weekends of live yarn was all I needed to rejuvenate my soul. Can’t thank these boys enough for the sacrifices they make to do what they do for all of us. No one in the room wanted that show to end. Hence the double encore.... here it is folks— many thanks to our taper friend Tom for his capture. Enjoy.

    Thanks for filling in the blanks Stoney. I would have just kept gushing on and on. Always great to see you and any member of your family. Thank you for you continued love and support of Yarn.
    A dose or two of Yarn should be all you need after shitty weeks, here's to Blue Skies, Better Times & Roses.

    Spread the word, share the music, these guys deserve so much more (we all know it, and feel the same way)

    It was a killer show. The entire band was "on" from start to finish. Blake made a comment before the second encore that the crowd got something extra.

    I recorded from the top of the theater below the soundboard and I'm very happy with the result. Mark & the staff at Roy's Hall deserve credit because the room always sounds great.

    I found the seats in the orchestra pit a bit strange but the audience took care of it by removing the chairs.
