Open Mic (1/18/09)

So I had to solo it at Conor Byrne this week, which was a little bummerish after playing so well together last week.  I made the best of it, though I think last week sounded ten times better.

Song list:

  • Album of the Year (Good Life cover)
  • Reasons to Disappear (Luke Messimer cover)
  • Creep (Radiohead cover)

I was not feeling it, hence the entirely uninspired and lacking original material song list.  Hehe, I played Album of the Year really fast and upbeat and then the rest of the set just dragged on from there.  Also had maybe too many beers before hand (bad idea).

On the upside, I just hung out all night there and made friends with several guys that I’ve seen the two times I’ve been there so far.  One who plays banjo (with whom I’ve made tentative plans to jam with soon) and one who’s more of a comedian/writer who just happens to be a whiz at banjo and the uke.  The latter plays with one of his friends, who’s more the songwriter type, and they just cracked me up last week.  Anyways, this week we closed down the bar.  I talked to Alana the bartender some, and I thought she was cool as well.  I like the people there.  Good stuff.  I hope this community-building continues.
