Last nights Santa Cruz show was great. Each night has seen a smaller venue. First a 1000 seat theater, followed by a 300 capacity bar, and last night a 200 seat space. Late night revelry followed. Bleary eyed, I leave for the airport shortly. The bands final show is tonight in Los Gatos but I will be home, horizontal. 8)
Apparently Bob was in Mexico with his band, Lefty.
A mid tour report will be inflicted on you. The Redwood City show Thursday and the show last night in Mill Valley were both awesome. Exuberant crowds, mostly comprised of San Francisco fans. I pity them, they had a shitty year but they were happy to see Tim and his band. 2 hour shows. Stuff auctioned off for Brian Stow. Tim’s band consists of a guitarist banjo player named Sean, a fiddle player who played with Eric Clapton, the bass player Dean Smith played guitar with Captain Beefheart, no drummer, 2 singers one of whom named Barbara Nesbitt who has sung with Willie Nelson, and Doug. Doug spends most of the night on pedal steel and lap slide, but plays lead guitar on a couple songs.
After 2 days driving the streets of San Francisco and one day in Sausolito, and 2 trips across the Golden Gate Bridge, I don’t need to do that again any time soon. Tonight’s show is in Santa Cruz and so far the day has been tension free. News bulletins will be posted as needed. 😀
Don’t think so Lafayette. I’ll be in downtown LA and Pomona is about an hour east. Amos visits rarely and I bought my tix long ago.

I’m going to see David Crosby at the Troubadour the night of the Echoplex show. I expect to see most of the other shows.
P.S. Now I see that I am going to see Amos Lee at the Wiltern on the night of the Pomona show. 😳
