Friday night was fantastic. Pick A Cup Coffee Club in Evanston is a wonderfully warm place to play music. You hardly need a PA as the natural acoustics of voice and guitar fill the room sufficiently. The audience has big plushy sofas and couches to sit in and the only distractions are the occasional sloshing of the espresso machine steaming milk (sin-e anyone?). It's a sweet reprieve from the cacophany and haze that accompanies playing in bars and I'm able to dust off some songs that I haven't been able to play out with in a while and arrangements of others that suit the songs far better than what I've been using to force them through. I only wish I had sat down to play because it's been a while since I've played an hour-and-a-half-plus show and I felt pretty exhausted by the end of it.

Thanks to Carol for having me and thanks to the awesome folks who came out to listen. I can't wait to go back in June.
