I see Yarn will be at the Pub in Mansfield, CT the night after....but if you can make the trip to Belchertown, it's a cool little club. They have a myspace page if you are interested.
tous, you might drive right by it, I have a couple of times....it's right next to a gas station, you will see the moon on the side of the building....above a Dunkin Donuts....very warm place!
Ok, kids...Yarn on a motherfuckin' boat? No, but how about Yarn on a motherfuckin' roll? They're clearly hitting on all cylinders these days. Long days on the road are paying off as they're about as tight a band right now as you could expect.
A small but appreciative crowd was treated to some rare gems and some acoustic versions of regular songs.
Soundcheck:
Christmas Song Desparate Amy (work-in-progress according to Blake)
Set: Time Burns On Annie (some ripping leads from both Rod and Andrew) Tired of Everything Never Been Much Of A Man Alone on the Weekend (nice new drum intro) NYC Found (great new bass solo) Midnight Rider (um...WOW...Andrew on slide) It Took A Long Time (acoustic) Singing Jim Croce (acoustic) Schenectedy (acoustic) Misery (acoustic) It's All Over Now Bad Bad Man Irish Jig>Woman On The Interstate Pale Blue Eyes Madeline Abilene (new break)> Keep On Rockin In The Free World> (Jealous, ain't ya?) Abilene Don't Break My Heart Again > drum solo > (great guitar duel) Christmas Song
2 1/2 hours
I was reminded a few times tonight of RC's quote from his birthday party..."best goddam band in the land"
Tomorrow night (well, tonight actually) Manchester. Be there.
Okay, who wants to start a database of set lists that can be queried based on any number of parameters (# of times played, 1st time played, covers, etc.)?
I would do it, but I don't have the know-how.
And the Midnight Rider cover for me is probably the first tune I've heard Yarn play, original or cover, that left me thinking, "Meh."
Wow! IIII got nothing. Keep On Rockin In The Free World. I am beyond Jealous. What does Christmas Song & Desparate Amy (work-in-progress according to Blake) sound like?
The Christmas Song you'll hear at the Kenny's show I'm sure. A typically sad song. Desparate Amy went from work-in-progress to full band song tonight at the Main Pub. Thumbs-up all around.
