Thanks to everyone who made the john prine 5th annual tribute/ benefit a rollicking success. The wheel house folks; who have steadily supported these fundraisers and getting people out to enjoy live local music; the musicians who really put their soul into their work; the sound guys who toil tirelessly (well maybe they DO get tired) and have a cheery attitude all the way through, the audience who show sparks of appreciation and enthusiasm that keeps it going- the supporters who came, bought raffle tickets, won door prizes enthusiastically. I think the crowd might have been down from some years, but there seemed to be lots of satisfied patrons throughout the night; some new folks. I'm wrapping up the details; all my crazy stuff to unload, re-distribute, etc. so I am still reeling from the details, but thanks to everyone.
We, as always, carry some momentum on to the next event- I like that people seem to be always boosted up and looking forward to the next event!
The greens halloween show in two weeks; the neil young show in less than a month- I need some more musicians by the way! more later
