Sorry about the flood of entries, but last night, i couldn’t keep a connection actve for very long and i ended up just shelving a bunch of entries before i finally turned in for bed… just one of those nights, i guess, which started with, yes, missing Robert Randolph and the Family Band… they didn’t show up and Jars of Clay played instead which is fine, but, since i’ve seen them before, i finished up my chicken fingers and headed out to try and catch the INO acoustic showcase that featured Sara Groves, Caedmon’s Call and The Afters among others…

The Bourbon Street Blues is a club that happens to be on a rather seedy alley… i actually walked past it, because i didn’t see their sign behind all the signs for showgirls and, believe it or not, nude karaoke… even if i were into visiting those types of places, i’m not sure that even sounds like a good idea… anyway… moving past that i came to the club as Sara was clearing out and heading over to her other performance… Despite missing her, though, i did get to see Derek Webb with Caedmon’s Call sing a few tunes and i saw The Afters play their mini-set… both were quite good…

After that, i headed back over to the Wildhorse Saloon and got there in time to catch the Switchfoot portion of the Music Builds show in its entirety and i must say, the’ve come a long way sing the last itme i saw them… when they were done, we decided to take off and get out of the sweaty, packed club, bypassing the Third Day set… i got back to the hotel pretty early (11-ish) and struggled to get some work done while the connection kept dying out… i’ve just noticed that the pictures did in fact upload last night and you can see them all at Flickr… hopefully, i’ll be able to add some descriptions and such later, but at least you can see them… off to another set of interviews… more on today, later…

peace… love… bdg…
