Happy Groundhog's Day.
6 more weeks of winter are coming according to a little varmint... oh well. I guess its good timing, as i am sitting in the airport in Denver (50 degrees out) and about to head back to Kzoo via Chicago (30 degrees out). Its like that little bastard is taunting me with his shadow-seeing prediction.
Weather aside, im psyched to get back to the Midwest and play some shows. there are a bunch of cool ones coming up... i've always dug the Mirimar Theatre in Milwaukee for some reason. It reminds me of the kind of place the Grateful Dead would play.... if it were still 1966. Funky, Old, Weird... All in a good way. One of the first nights i met Greensky was there 3 or 4 years ago. the promoter or the opening band or someone brought a keg backstage as i guess that was easier than trying to fulfill the beer rider of GSBG and The Wayword Sons at the time. We picked a bunch of tunes backstage and got to know each other. good times. keg killed, fyi.
Im also psyched for a two night run at Papa Pete's in Kalamazoo. I've never played there though the band used to all the time back in the day. Im excited to go back to the old school days for a few nights.... No, we will not be crowding around a single mic or anything silly like that! It will be a great chance for all the long time kzoo based fans of the band to see the progress that has been made musically over the last 5 or 6 years. Its not the kind of thing that the band has done around home for a long time. Im thinking there's gonna be a bunch of people having flashbacks. be safe out there!
Well alright... its time to end this blog as i have to get on this plane.
Good talk, folks. thanks for listening to my ramblings. Drop us a line on facebook or twitter or send smoke signals or something.
Keep it Real... or Keep it Reel?
Much Love, Anders |
