I made it to the show (Thanks to a knight in
shining armor who arrived early enought to get me a
ticket!)since I think they sold out. I KNOW for sure all the
seats were taken, and they sold SRO
tickets.<br><br>This is only my 2nd time seeing them (first time was
at NEARFest on Saturday night) - and I dragged a
friend with me who'd never heard them before. She was
blown away.<br><br>I cannot say enough about this
amazing performance! If the only complaint at NEARFest
was that they were too loud - problem solved - there
was no such problem at the Bottom Line.<br><br>If
you've never been to the Bottom Line, you should know
that this venue has always had personality of it's own
- where the people in audience always manage to
interact with the performers. It ends up adding to the
performance - as I've seen many of the performers have a good
laugh onstage. Last night was no exception. That little
banter back and forth makes me feel like the band had a
connection with us and it makes shows there sound and feel
different from ones you'll see anywhere else.<br><br>After
the show, the band made themselves available for
signings, and all were extremely gracious. They signed tons
of stuff, stood for photos (and I got a hug from
Chris Maitland I'm sorry to hear there was trouble
getting them a drink at the bar.... had I known, I would
have bought them a round before the show ended and had
it waiting for them. *LOL*! <br><br>Here's to hoping
that they will be back MUCH sooner than
later!<br><br>janie<br>(and 3 little girls *LOL*)
