The party’s over. Time to head home. We played at Tula’s in Seattle the last two nights for the Earshot Festival. The first night we had a little trouble hearing each other so it felt weird. The room was quiet, but something about the acoustics on stage was a little strange. Last night we set up closer together and it was better. The audience seemed to like the music but they were strangely rigid. Every time I made a joke there was utter silence. That has never happened before on tour.
Thanks to Paul DeBarros of the Seattle Times and Tom Conrad of Jazz Times for stopping by to hear us. It was great hanging out with both of you.
I’ll be in Spain and Germany in late November. I’ll keep you posted.
