After me and them Long Beds finished up at Phoenix Park the other night, we set up and played loud at the Mousetrap. Mike O’Brien shot some photos and now they’re viewable over on the Volume One site.
Man, it was hot in there. Thank goodness I brought not one but two New Auburn Area Fire Department sleeveless t-shirts!
As the photo below reveals, I am a singer of great sensitivity:
Here’s another album of photos from the recent Mabel Tainter show. Two of my favorites:
Billy crushes me with his guitar.
Big finish with “After Waymore’s Blues.”
Volume One has put up an album of photos from the Long Beds show at the gorgeous Mabel Tainter.
The official Tiny Pilot world tour (“tour” because it’s four stops in one week) (“world tour” because we’re doing one show in Minnesota) is set:
March 16 – Washburn, Wisconsin.
March 18 – Spring Green, Wisconsin.
March 19 – Winona, Minnesota.
March 20 – Menomonie, Wisconsin.
(We’re already booking more Long Beds shows for the fall and early 2011.)
The Tiny Pilot album is available for pre-order (including free digital download).
And of course Mike and/or Mike and the Long Beds are already booked for many additional 2010 appearances.
You never know who’s going to show up backstage (this was at the theater in Alma).
Much more normal audience members in Spencer, Wisconsin:
Thanks to photographer Glenn.
Up the road from here is Chippewa Falls, home of many fine things including Leinenkugel’s beer (which I have never tasted but can spell) and the Freaks & Geeks blog, which very kindly reviewed the show we did recently with QuinnElizabeth. I’m happy to say the post includes video footage of both QuinnElizabeth and us Long Beds (for the Long Beds clip, look for the highlighted text…the QE video is right up front). QuinnElizabeth consists of three sisters, and one of the highlights of the evening for me was getting to sign a book for their Dad!
Photographer Mike O’Brien shot the QuinnElizabeth/Long Beds concert the other night. You can see the rest of the photos (at much higher resolution) here.
The Volume One Backstage Concert Series will be broadcast by live webcam tonight. It’ll show up on the Volume One homepage. QuinnElizabeth on at about 7 p.m. CST, Long Beds at about 8 p.m. CST. More details here.
Getting ready for the show Thursday night. Working up a set list, re-memorizing lyrics, trying to grow my hair. Info (about the show, not my hair) here. We’ll be pleased to share the stage with QuinnElizabeth.
It’s so fun to be just plain proud of someone.
