Mike Gordon: TLA [Scott Murawski's Blog]

Last night was a great gig! We had some folks from The Chieftains sit-in with us during the first set, and that was cool but I thought that second set raged!

It was a rainy day in Philadelphia but I walked to a coffee shop anyway and skyped with Cheryl for a bit. South street is a pretty cool neighborhood.

Mike Gordon Tour: Stroudsburg [Scott Murawski's Blog]

Probably the best example of it was in Morphing Again. There’s an intricate little warp in the middle of the song that’s supposed to be a call and answer between the drums and percussion while Mike, Tom and I support it, but we never really fell into it totally, and at the end of it there’s supposed to be a cue into this counting thing that takes us to the jam part. Well, we missed the counting thing pretty seriously. We did recover and get there, but by then the door was open and the jam was off the hook.

Mike Gordon: I Can See Your House From Here [Scott Murawski's Blog]

The State Theater in Falls Church was the fifth show of a five show run.  Things are very relaxed now and fun, and we had a blast last night.  I ended up sitting in with Reid for one song in his opening set, Honest Hour, one of my favorites by him.  Mike sat in on the next tune in his set, Back In Time by Gillian Welch.  Mike played guitar, and he killed it.  He’s a great player!
