hey, i went to his show with my friend/roommate. it's been 7 years since i've seen him last, so i didn't recognize him. he didn't play any FS or Subrosa, but at the end of his set he played house of the rising sun (cover of course) as he was walking outside, with his guitars, shortly after his set, i walked up to him and introduced myself. shook hands and all as i complimented him and told him about the last show i was able to see him play. i couldn't find my NBTDYH CD in my truck i thought i brought it, i felt dumb, i wanted him to sign it. but he was happy to sign his set list that he had in his pocket. he drew a smiley face with some creative structure using the letters of his name. and then thought he'd say something to personalize it "i can't think of anything to say" he said as he wrote "brain cramp" then dithered to write something else. i said "i don't care" i knew what ever he would write would be words of gold, or golden words or, well you get my point. well he heard what i said, and decided to write "i care".  well that was awesome enough. i asked him about the songs he played and about recordings and about him being married and having children. i wanted to ask more, but two other people had walked out and had been standing there quietly patient, waiting for the attention of "Great Travis Tooke" i said good night and told him i would love to come to his next show, he asked if i was going to stay for the next bands and i told him i couldn't, for i have a long 2½ hour drive back to Tampa ahead of me, and it was already 11pm so i said good night as i drove away listening to Subrosa from my MP3 player. it was a good night indeed.

Anyone make it to the show? Let us know how it was if you did. I recently moved to Orlando and I traveled toSouth Florida for the weekend and couldn't make it.

 

Hope all is well with everyone.

Travis will be playing at Common Grounds on Saturday, November 26. He
has a lot of new songs and has been practicing some of the old. Hope
to see you there!
