Last night the Yacht Rock Revue kicked off a summer concert series at the Park Tavern. My laptop felt like this would be a great time to freak out and not work. I spent an hour and forty-five minutes opening and shutting it, turning it on and off, and popping the battery out and holding down the power button, and praying to Steve Jobs. Eventually I gave up and started lining up sounds with the thought that I would MIDI into my top keyboard (Korg Triton). I even borrowed Nick's laptop (with a newer version of Logic) to try and see if I could work with that.
No luck. I'd given up on it, and as I was packing it up and bitching to another musician, I turned my laptop on one more time and it worked perfectly. I set it up with the EWI and played the gig with no problems.
Space Capone (from Nashville) opened up for us with a great set of 70s inspired funk. Great stuff.
