    Too cool.

    Even cooler if AE was to record a Morning Song. They're right up his alley as far as style.

    Here is another one... nice seeing Blake show off his skills a bit.

    WOW--love it.

    I had to jump in on this discussion, the show I got to be a part of last night was just an amazing experience. Caitlin, Alejandro, Skillet, Lynn, Tonya, our host Finch, our soundman Hill, and every last person in the audience we're just a pleasure to be surrounded by, I feel so honored. Here are some videos we took, one of Caitlin and I doing "5 Guitars" and a couple more of Alejandro and I doing Everybody Loves Me and Chelsea Hotel '78. Enjoy...

    I probably should have tried to come and tape this, but I was worn from following a band around all weekend.

    "...but I was worn from following a band around all weekend. "

    Slacker! Lol~

    Wow, thanks for posting those. Of course the 5guitars only took an hour to come in on my dial-up! That sure looks like it was a good time.

    All I would have needed was an invite!! After the 5 Yarn shows in 3 days I still had energy to make it to Dinosaur Jr. last night.

    Once again great videos. Someday people are going to dream of getting to play with Yarn.

    Well, I didn't have an invite, but I'm pretty sure Blake said something about possibly getting me in to tape. But that was Friday and the details of Friday night are a bit fuzzy.

    And I needed Monday off because I was taping Little Feat last night, Zoogma tonight, maybe Big Daddy Love on Thursday, Dex Romweber Duo on Friday, American Aquarium on Saturday, etc.

    Back on topic, these videos are great. Blake is a pickin' machine.

    Dex Romweber Duo?

    Take the night off and rest. You won't be missing much, IMO. :-)

    Saw him once in Philly and it was one time too many.
