May 28 good friday at OTSOFM

Erin and I saw Bela Fleck (with Bryan Sutton & Casey Driessen) tonight at the Old Town School of Folk Music. We were both really amazed at the level of communication and understanding between the three artists. Although they spoke between songs, not a word was said while playing. The sounds were playful and curious, with lots of quick tempo shifts; the timing was measured and precise. Really cool stuff..

May 20 have any book recommendations?

Just finished ‘Wilco: Learning How To Die’ by Greg Kot. It’s an interesting read for me since I’m a big fan of Wilco and didn’t know a lot of the history behind the band.

I’m looking for recommendations for my next few reads, please post a comment if you have one.
