Hot. 102 yesterday & we're 7000+ feet above sea level. Humidity is around 10%. Total rainfall here for the year is .7 of an inch. Many forest fires in the state.
How was the show? I'd love to see them again, after having seen Ely a few times solo since the last Flatlanders show here.
Very nice. Great stories & excellent music.
Ely told a story about driving across Texas many years ago & picking up a hitchiker who turned out to be Townes Van Zandt carrying a sackful of vinyl LPs.
He did play with Paul Butterfield's band.
and Little Milton, IIRC, v. early on.
And in a different vein - Gil Evans.
Also for those who are old enough to remember, he had a lot to do with the TV show Night Music.
