Tonight we got to play another full-band show. Out under the slowly darkening sky at the Columbia Lake Front for one of Joe Isaacs' "Music that Matters" showcases. We got to share the stage with Symbiont and Dan Sheer... both of which played in formats that I hadn't seen before.

Dan Sheer had brought along a guitarist/bass player who I'd met before at the Thai Gour Cafe. Great blues player... really good night of a lot of great music.. Awesome
