Last show of the tour tonight in Saratoga Springs

Last night I played to a wonderful crowd at the Barking Spider Tavern in Cleveland. It was a cold, rainy night but inside it couldn't have been warmer. I'm always so amazed when people are willing to travel just to see me play. We had a couple from Canton OH (about 2 hours away) and another couple from Detroit MI (3 hours). With the Celtics game on behind the bar, which was a wonderful surprise, I played for about an hour and a half.

Tonight I'm playing at Caffe Lena in Saratoga Springs. Caffe Lena is an amazing folk club and has been around for over 40 years. If you live anywhere near Saratoga Springs you should come, if only to see this amazing venue.

I'll be opening for Mary Gautier, which is a great honor for me. I've known Mary's music since I was in high school. Her record "Drag Queens and Limousines" was literally in my car CD player for 6 months my senior year. She's also the first person I ever saw at Club Passim, which has since become my home.

I'm really looking forward to it and then I REALLY looking forward to going home after :)
