    Well, what do you know...Yarn at the infamous Cafe Nine, "the Musician's Living Room".

    Great sound in this place but it is one of the smaller clubs around. Probably could fit inside the Tin Angel in Philly.

    Don't know how they're all going to fit on that small stage but we'll be there to find out!

    Cool, I've never been here--is it a "listening room" type place?

    I would call it a neighborhood dive bar with an owner that loves music. It's a very tough room to get booked into.

    If tapers are going, there's like one table in the middle that would be good for mic stands...other than that, a tough room to tape in due to the size.

    Happy Yarn Eve everyone.

    It's looking like I'm facing a choice between this show and the festival weekend. I can't miss work on Friday so it might be too much to try to do both. I will likely have to skip this one. I can jump out of work a little early and make Yarn's set in Greenfield on Friday.

    Bring your taping rig tousky!

    Yup, they rocked. Good to see ya, cd.

    Andrew was en fuego, Chemre and Ricky B were in the pocket, Rod was picking faster than usual and Blake was having a blast as were the rest of us.

    Notable highlights were:

    - Lucky Man has morphed into a faster tempo
    - Christopher Street - first indication Andrew was ready to rock
    - the extended Salt Creek jam
    - guitar interplay on I'm So Tired
    - drunk sing-alongs that were actually not that bad (excluding myself of course)

    This Thursday night crowd had the weekend Hungry Tiger crowds beat. Hopefully their first time at Cafe Nine won't be the last.

    Thanks guys. I'll just catch an hour and fifteen set this afternoon but the crowd, whatever sized, will be amped up the first day of the fest.

    ...sorry I missed you all~
