here it is 8 AM and guess who hasn't been to sleep yet? you got it.
saw Mule last night and they brought the house down. I'm still not all that familiar with their stuff, but I can give a meager attempt at some of what was played: lay your burden down, while my guitar gently weeps, thorazine shuffle, into the mystic, this land is your land > rockin' in the free world > watchtower (tease) > rockin' in the free world, 30 days in the hole, soulshine, and fallen down. I'll stop there and let you all wait for the official set in order to keep me from making a complete jackass of myself. oh yeah.. Kevin Kinney (see: Drivin' N' Cryin') came out for the encore..
and that this land > rockin' > watchtower tease > rockin'? WHEW.
then I headed down to the 40 Watt to see my buddies' mom, Moe Tucker (see: The Velvet Underground). unfortunately, she shared the bill with a couple of other folks and she took first spot. so I missed her set.
but I saw the Mule. so it's OK.
fortunately, I was on the guestlist, so I got to waltz in like I owned the place. also fortunate, I got there just in time to see Jonathan Richman (see: Something About Mary) start his set. just a guy with a little gut-string acoustic and another guy standing playing a 4-piece drum set. and they fuckin' rocked. reminded me of seeing warren haynes and matt abts open for ben & the criminals. it says a lot when two guys can break it down to basics and still capture an entire room.
ultimately ended up at someone's house watching JAWS. yes, the first one. the BEST one.
now it's almost 9 AM. I've been walking about the house and talking to folks while putting this post together. looks like I've got an epic on my hands. I think I should get some sleep soon or I'm going to pass out standing. I could pack this one-hitter a few times, too.. so yeah, GREAT night. feel like I've been up an entire weekend and it's only Friday morning. should be a time..
go see Gov't Mule sometime. Moe Tucker, too. AND Jonathan Richman. see 'em all.
