    Hello Northeast Yarn family
    Look forward to seeing some of you folks this weekend
    The old crystal ball says they probably won't be up this way again until July
    See you out on the road...safe travels

    Alright think I’m gonna make the trip solo. Been. Seeing yarn since 2009 and know they worth the drive. Anyone know a cheap place to stay near the venue? Looks like Bennington VT the closest

    It was fantastic to see a sold out Roy’s Hall show and a lively Unihog gathering this weekend. Great hanging as always Bob, thanks for everything you do. jgoods, I still think we’ve yet to formally meet! I captured audio both nights, I’ll try to get to to them sooner than later…

    I am so glad DJ Easy Wind & cd2go got to witness and be a part of this leg of the tour
    It was, for lack of a better word incredible
    I have been on many a "tour"and seen many shows
    This experience was truly different
    5 shows in 4 days
    It was emotional and moving in so many ways, and in all honesty probably the best stretch I have ever spent with these gentlemen
    With the addition of keys (temporarily) it changes the feel and heartbeat of every song
    Damian Calcagne is an incredibly talented musician and has proven to be a great and positive influence on this band
    Joey Recchio (temporarily) on lead guitar and background vocals knocked it out of the park
    They are in a great place right now and there is a lot to be excited for in the coming months...seriously
    The current catalog includes many new tunes
    Blake's is writing new music like never before
    As a longtime fan and admirer of his music, I think the new stuff is some of his best work AND it just keeps on coming
    The make up of the band this weekend produced an inferno!!!
    I cannot wait to hear it again and hope that the rest of you enjoy it as much
    DJ Easy & cd2go captured the Blairstown show and cd2go grabbed Hoosick Falls
    Don't know what the band make up will be when they return to these parts in the summer
    What I do know is it will not disappoint even the most die hard fans
    I really am on cloud nine

    Hi All. Its been a while since Ive posted and after witnessing Friday's Roy’s Hall show, I needed to reactivate my 5Guitar's involvement.

    To say the show was amazing does not illustrate the excitement in the room. From wall to wall, there was energy.
    The keys (Damian Calcagne) and guitar (Joey Recchio) allowed songs to explore new avenues.

    If recordings exist, I cannot wait to get a second listen.
    Get to a show! Bring your friends and your friends friends!

    Damian always brings up the level. Having spoken to him, he is as enthusiastic about this Tour as you are Bob! And one thing must be said. Even above Dam's unreal Hammond B3 and Keys chops, and his dynamic Production abilities, he is one sweet Soul!

    Jah Bless Yarn & all the Yarniacs!!!

    Caught Blake and Joey acoustic Friday night at a small joint in Salisbury, NC. Was a great show. I've been seeing Joey with BDL since 2010 or so. He is pretty damn good.

    Going to see Yarn with Brock from P-Groove on the 15th right here in Greensboro, NC. I'm pretty much out of the taping game, but Greensboro's most prolific taper is a huge P-Groove fan so the show will probably be up on archive right after. The venue also does a multitrack recording of every show and video.

    Hope everyone is doing well!

    Hey hoppedup, good to hear from you. I will second that vote for Joey being pretty damn good.
    I like what the band is doing with "rotating" guitarists. Truth be told many of these folks have reached out to the band saying how much they would love to play with them
    Pretty nice position to be in and says a lot about Yarn in general
    Hope you are doing well also. Might I catch you at Rooster Walk?
