    Hello all! Getting pumped for the show Saturday. Hope to see as many of you as possible there! Great venue, great show last time.


    FYI: you need to reserve a table if you want to sit and eat before/during show.

    Reckless and Tous and Mrs. Tous, I have a table reserved for 8:00 and included you guys. RC, let me know if your mrs. will be joining us. Its the table we were at last time as I think that is prime taping spot for you RC. She couldn't guarantee it 100% per policy, but said it shouldn't be a problem. I'll be there by 8. Let me know if you are getting there earlier and we'll work it out.

    Yarn on One More Saturday Night!

    Thanks jgoods! Much appreciated. May not be there that early, though. Probably closer to 9.

    We may look to get there on the early side. Kind of wanna see what happens with the Steelers Raven's game. I'll be in touch as the weekend approaches jgoods. All I really need is that fireplace!

    They're still playing football in the middle of hockey season?!?

    It's ok, they'll be back to your telecast before anybody scores a goal.

    From a friend in the Hartford area (who will be seeing them for the first time):

     I should warn you that the amount of snow being pushed around Hartford is going to make parking, even in the lots across the street, a challenge.

    Tous is 100% correct. I was downtown yesterday putting up a few fliers for the show, and it is a mess. However, they are spending all day clearing it into dump trucks. There are CT Whaler hockey games and UCONN basketball events this weekend, plus a convention in town. While Hartford doesn't get it right many, many times, they seem to be on this and recognize they have to help people who come downtown to spend money.

    The lot directly across the street from the venue is your best bet. Mostly cleared, and big anyway so you should get a spot. $7 if no Civic Center event, $10 if there is an event.

    RC, Tous, some of my party cancelled for reasons I cannot comprehend! Sick kid, blah, blah, blah...I kept the table anyway assuming you guys and any other you know might want a seat spot. Cool?

    Very cool. I'm bringing a couple of newbies so that will work out great...thanks. Again, I'd like to get there by 6:30-7ish.

    When are you planning on arriving?

    I'll be there about 8. They won't seat at the table until then. Its under my name, so tell them when you arrive at 7 and at least make it known we want that specific table. She said she put it down on my request, but couldn't guarantee, so if you reinforce that when you arrive, that would help.

    Well first off, we sure hope all's ok with jgoods. We missed you brother....hopefully it was nothing too distresssing~ Sure was terrific of you to snag that table for us.

    Had the same opening band as last time....Heirlooms. They weren't too bad previously but this go round, things were a little harsh. Nuff said but we were all ready for Yarn by the time they took stage. Brought along a couple of friends who first saw Yarn back at my birthday show. tangled got caught up in some family health issues and had to cancel :(

    Very well played set although a short one by current Yarn standards, the sound was very good as is the recording. Wrote a set list:

    Desperate Amy
    Empty Pockets
    Can't Slow Down
    On The Road......was thinkin' of ya jgoods!
    Christopher St
    More
    Roadhouse
    Alone On The Weekend
    NYC Found
    One More Saturday Night
    Bad Bad Man
    Irish Jam>Woman On The Interstate
    Down On Your Luck
    Don't Break My Heart Again
    Liquor Love
    Thrill Is Gone....with Shane Spaulding
    It's All Over Now

    Short, sweet, riiiipin' and I'll get it mastered as soon as I can. Certainly can't run into the SMACKDOWN of the Patriots tomorrow afternoon!

    Cool. I thought that maybe Rod would get buried in the mix, no?

    ...and, yes, hope jgoods is ok. Missed a great version of "On The Road".

    Good to hear "Liquor Love" and "Thrill Is Gone" is always fun.

    ...and congrats to Shane on his Jets...

    Rod's pretty much never loud enough but he's there pretty well. Very slight balance to the right but great separation with Andrew and Jay left, Rob/Rick center and Blake/Rod to the right so not too bad.

    Fuckin' Jets. They proved me wr wro wron wrong...it's hard for me to type that! I'm just fortunate that Shane's such an upstanding dude, he won't even think of busting my chops when I see him again.

    Thank you SO MUCH RC....I came home from a crappy day at work and it felt like Christmas when I checked my mail box! Thank you so much for the recordings....I'm not that up to speed downloading and uploading and recording.
