december the first
woke to snow on the ground this morning....smiled.... but damn its december....had the show at double door the other night with peter himmelman and minnie driver....got there for soundcheck and was quickly introduced to minnie who said ,..." i've heard so many great things about you" we talked a bit about the world cafe place in philly ( which i'm playing in a couple weeks, she said, its amazing) anyway...talked a bit and i saw himmelman come in...a man i'd be aware of for some time....i watched him walk around the room while minnie was soundchecking and i approached him for an introduction....wel chatted a bit and he seemed like a great fella....
my set was fine...played 20 minutes....so it was over before it really began but i played...arm, hellfire, wall, long way to heaven, 20 miles....
peter apparently said to my manger, " he's way too good to opening for us" which was nice....
had many friends there and it was a great time.....
peter and i ended up talking about religion and life for about an hour after his set...and was such a wonderful conversation for a very intuitive and insightful man....we talked about doing some shows together in the future...i would be very happy about that....
when i was leaving i went to say goodbye to minnie and give her a hug and though she was about to do a shot of what appeared to be jagermeister....we hugged and she said to me, " amazing set"...i replied, " what are you talking about? you werent' even back from the hotel when i got off stage "...she appeared suprised and in her english accent said, " i know...but i got your cd now "...i then said...." i'm just teasing you...good meetin ya"
my manager also informed me that the european label wants me over there doing some shows....so i was thrilled to hear that....that will be a dream come true.....
little else to report...oh the barn of barrington was a great night....sound was weird in the place but i enjoyed the performance....was kinda fun to do some stuff i hadnt' played in a while...upside down, belong, smoke.etc.
hope everybody is safe and healthy....God bless.
