7 PM: A pretty easy set. Two factors were in play here: 1. Nick was sick with a cold, so we avoided a few songs that were too difficult or would have shredded his voice for the later set; 2. the "unplugged" nature of the show allows us to take a few more liberties, so things like the EWI solo in Hey Nineteen could be fudged to make it fit on a saxophone. No gear problems for me in this one.

10: PM: Again, nothing scary or unusual about this one, and no gear problems either. We had a drinking crowd this evening, which bumped up the energy in the room quite a bit. The regular set ended with a really exemplary drum solo by Mark Cobb on Lido Shuffle.
We've got two gigs in Louisiana this week:
Thursday night, we're at the House of Blues in New Orleans
Friday night, we're at The Varsity in Baton Rouge
