University of Oregon

Eugene - January 22nd

we played on campus at the University of Oregon in the Fishbowl around noon. for those not familiar with the fishbowl its a cafeteria pretty much - but not in the converted gym type of way. you never know what you are gonna get when you play these kind of shows. There were a lot of people hanging around though and we definitely had attentive listeners which was awesome.

One super cool thing about this band is how each member brings their own influences and abilities to the songs - which has given all the tunes this "Folk/Rock/Jazz/Funk" sound. The bummer though is that our cds don't reflect this sound because of how new of an ensemble this is. Even though we are playing songs from the last 3 albums its a completely different experience and i hope that doesn't disappoint people when listening to the albums.

We are looking into dates as to when we can record these tunes with the full band and release somewhat of a live album with songs from & we hope, Unfold and It Seems So Long Since Yesterday.

Without a show tonight, We had a quiet night back at Rob's house where we watched a little of Jim Henson's Dark Crystal and got ourselves some mongolian barbecue.

We got some good news tonight - our guitarist, backup vocalist, ladies man and beat boxer Eric Frank will be with us for the Sacramento and Berkeley shows to wrap up the trip. Eric not only provides much to the music but is an awesome guy to have around as his personality and humor bring a lot to the group energy.
