with Joe Craven!

Both those shows will be great. I saw them with Joe and Keith together a few weeks ago, it was fantastic. Have fun, I will be seeing them Sat. at the Fairgrounds for a benefit for the Yuba River Charter School. 

^^^ Guess I can catch AW at the Mateel tomorrow night........

Mark, you should drive up for Friday's Mateel show no matter what you did on Thursday night

3, maybe 4, of us from Petrolia will be at the Mateel -- me, Maureen, & Charlie Solo for sure, & maybe Rob Y.

Hwy 101 is currently open, there's a couple spots north of Willits with one-way controlled traffic, but no substantial delays are anticipated

GREAT to hear you're coming up to Humboldt! ... safe travels Mark

Buckle Up Guys, because Joe Craven puts this band over the top. 

Bump

Just seeing how the show was last night. I am seeing Achilles Wheel later today. 

Hope you all had fun!

GREAT show at the Mateel, but woefully underattended... only about 60 in the audience (and Mark D was not among them) 

hard to figure why the attendance was so low... perhaps competing parties on Cinco de Mayo, but more likely a lack of name recognition amongst the Humboldt hippie crowd

Joe Craven did in fact contribute substantially to the enjoyment factor... and Keith Greeninger is an amazing performer in his own right

I talked to somebody who had attended the AW show the previous night, at the Mystic in Petaluma... they estimated only 70 peeps at that gig

BUMP for Bart & MarkD to check in

Hi Gary, glad you had fun. Keith is one of my favorites, I use to see him all the time in City Folk. Joe Craven came out first did a few songs then a few with his daughter when I saw them together. I still like my AW solo with no guests. I just love when the two drummers get locked in and rolling. My show was a bit short because it was a benefit show, plus Paul's voice was a bit tired but still a great show. Not sure why these guys don't draw more of a crowd, they have great skills, good original songs and always lay it on the line every show. I was hoping since they have been playing at TXR they would get a bigger crowd, They are playing more and more out of town so hope they get a break before they burn out. 

everybody at the 5/5 Mateel show was totally into the music... it's just that the crowd was pretty sparse

I gotta figure that, at some point, the positive word of mouth about AW will kick in and the band will develop a strong following here
