an outburst of the soul

So, this unapologetic Yankee is back from a visit from below the Mason-Dixon line. Having enjoyed touring as groupie with the aforementioned band, on the magical mystery Southern tour in the Carolinas (North & South). And a fabulous time was had in Columbia, the hometown of Mr. McGregor's bass player, Dennis. The band played one of their best sets ever, and enjoyed a guest appearance by old buddy Vic, keyboardist for (another terrific indie band) at the super music venue, . And in the up-and-coming hipster town of Winston-Salem they stumped the crowd at , offering up a gig the likes of which had apparently never been seen before by the locals ... heh. Both shows were a rip-roaring blast as usual, and the guest appearances by friends and former bandmates added to the trio's already joyful sound and presence on stage.

And thanks to cheap digital cameras and the power of the internet, you can be a part of it now, too ... Enjoy. We all did ... and the hens didn't seem to mind either ...



You can see more from the shows now that on YouTube.
