Rundown
Sunday, May 24, 2009

Things of note this past week: Played an open mic in Washington DC on Tuesday night and my rendition of Lawyers, Guns & Money (accompanied by Tom Holl of the Road Sodas) prompted a conversation with a guy in the bar who knew Warren Zevon. "Hell of a nice guy," he told me.

Wednesday I sang "It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry," at a Bob Dylan birthday bash in Hell's Kitchen accompanied by Gordon Gano of the Violent Femmes on fiddle.

Thursday Butch did a gig with his new band Buck Up Butch and the Dregs.

Saturday went briefly to a party at Banjo Lisa's house with a whole bunch of cool musicians including Boo & Elena from the Demolition String Band, Drina Seay, Lil' Mo and others. Had to split early to blow harp in Williamsburg with my favorite NYC band, The Izzys.
