Next week, and I'm in. Saw him there before and he was great, really looking forward to going again. Small place, was able to greet and get a CD signed last time. What an interesting person he is too.

Enjoy if you go.

Hint: You should go!

I'm in!  Row G.

Great artist in a fantastic theater.  Really glad to have the chance to see David again.  Thanks for the heads up.

Nice.  Hope he hits NY on w/e.

Eh.  Lawn Guy Land on Sunday (Thanks for the heads-up, NYCEd).

Not out of the question; but, damn, I hate LI.

Fun venue, heard Pat Martino there. Good beers at the hotel next door when I was there.

 

Cool little place for his act. Great player. That guy really loves stringed instruments.

2 tickets $56.00 with fees FOR BOTH!!! 

Go see this amazing man even if you don't know who he is.

Cheap night out to see a true American treasure.

 

Wish he was playing there Friday. The hour and a half trek home on a work night is kinda tough.

Damn just missed him @ the Iron Horse.  Saw him there a bunch of times in the '80's/'90's.  Even got him on tape ranting about how much he hated tapers.

Put that shit in a Dropbox link and hook us up.

Thanks for the heads-up!

I see Commander Cody plays tomorrow (Thursday) night. Always wanted to see that guy live.

Hey Thom2, I'm in row D on the right, see you there!

Glad to see some more peeps interested, looks like the 2nd half of the theater is mostly unsold so far, and it's only about 350 seats total. Funny I never see much promotion for this place, always have to poke around to see what's coming up. Caught Charlie Musselwhite last year here, great night of solid harp blowing blues right there. 

Don't know what time I'll get there with my lady but hope to see ya'll freaks there. 

Looking forward to meeting you.  And seeing David of course.

Sweet, this is in my neck o' 

Enjoy, kids!

Bump 

Be looking for you tonight, might get there after the opening act has started.

I'll be doing a little pre game next door at the Washington House, hope to be there around 5:30, dinner with the lady, then over to the show. 

See you there, maybe catch you between sets?

 

That's the plan, although we might get there before the show starts.  Depends on how traffic is coming up from Delaware.

Looking forward to a good night.

Where are you at in row G?

Yep.  Seats 2 & 3.

Ha! I'm 3 & 4 in D.

Easy to find.  See you there.

A great time in what is one of the best sounding rooms I've ever been in.  Just love that little theater.  David was in fine form, lots of funny stories and a great selection of songs including "Poor Poor Pitiful Me", "He Would Have Loved You More than Eva Braun", "Mr. Snakehead", the ever present "Mercury Blues" and "Tiki Torches at Twilight" as a sing along encore.   Would have loved to stick and shake the mans hand at the record table but we had an 80 minute drive home and it was getting late.

Nice meeting you Rock, thanks for the heads up on this one.

Good stuff here. Nice review.

Thom, it was nice meeting you and your lady there, and yes, Mr. Dave is a true American original still out the doing it in fine form. After the show I got to shake hands and thank the man for the fine show and even get a CD autographed. He spent lots of time talking and answering questions after the show and I loved him even more for being a warm and friendly humble human being. It shows in his performance but shines when you talk to him. 

Did you get to see any of the thunderstorm on your drive home? It was spectacular! 

Until next time..............

Also a great version of "Pretty Polly" on cistern (I think), that was just about the best song all night.  Dave knows how to go dark.  That was preceded by a great a story about him being a middle class kid in the CA suburbs growing up that was fascinated with banjo and his mother getting upset because he was going to become a hillbilly. But his grandmother encouraged him ("just be the best you can be") and told him about how one of his aunts played 5 string when she was younger and had a beautiful pearl inlayed banjo with brass fittings, etc.  Dave's reaction, even as a kid, was (of course)  "where's that banjo?"

The man is a unique American treasure. 

Oh yea, we got pounded by the rain, mostly on the back roads cutting over to 476.
