The concert was incredible, an absolutely revelatory performance. Carbon Leaf is my favorite band. Wen and I have seen them live four times now. This show was my favorite so far. Interesting show highlight: they began their encore by going completely unplugged. No mics, no amps, just the band (sans drums) projecting “Learn to Fly” to a packed room struggling to remain silent. Other highlights – friggin’ everything.

I’d recently “gone solo” as a singer/songwriter/acoustic guitar slinging performer, playing coffee shops, bars, charity events and the like around the St. Louis area. After awhile, music slid from my first priority project to somewhere around #5, so I pulled down that site and began work on a new one devoted to a broader mix of my activities.
