A Very Enjoyable Day with Jason Wilber

We hosted Jason to Rubi's on 7th St. for lunch/dinner yesterday before his evening show. He is a great guy, with many interests and he's gracious, and all those good qualities. He is very deliberate in his sound check and preparation for a performance; its impressive to observe.
He put on a second night in a row of a great song selection, good story telling in between, great delivery of his music. He mixed up the songs from the previous show, adding more, probably a little more on the introspective side. He connects with the audience in this intimate setting, and responded to the exchanges of questions, comments, friendly banter. He left a good impression on all he came in contact with on this little foray into the Mid Ohio Valley. He ended with Steve Goodman's City of New Orleans, a very classy version. He headed off to get a little start on the road back to Indiana. He has some local shows coming up, before a trip later in the month down in North Carolina, playing with Iris DeMent.
This is not a complete list of songs but some of the ones he did:
Satellite, in her veins, pay bo diddley, king for a day, lost in your hometown, my great uncle jim, goin' fishin', the ballad of amazing grace and sideshow dan, the galway waltz, its not saturday (my request), indian summer, lazy afternoon, lay down when you're done, the great twenty eight, watching picasso, indigo, down in russell square, (a Gillian Welch song). Sorry that's not complete.
I got positive comments again this time, on the set up of the venue, for listening to a singer songwriter. Stay tuned for announcements about upcoming events.
