Seattle

What a lovely evening. We braved Seattle traffic (ouch! 1 hour + for 14 miles) and dropped Pax off with some friends (where we'd come back to stay for the next 2 nights). We then drove back across the City to get to Mars Hill Graduate School, down near the water.

It was a beautiful evening...one of our better performances in a while. And, as Bryan Maz pointed out, it was fun to hear/see/feel/play our music in a larger-ish venue. I love house shows, but it's fun to bust out of that from time to time...perhaps in the future, even more? We'll see.

Aurora, et al came out for the evening, John, Adam, and several other good folks joined. Some of us wandered 1st and 2nd streets, looking for a place to whet our whistle after the show. After several blocks, we settled into a swell little Italian Bistro. Had some Tuscan Sangeovese and a local beer called Manny's.

Today, we're going into town after Pax's nap, meet some friends, drink some coffee and then head over to set up for our show tonight @ the Purple Door with Scandrettes and Adam.

Should be a fun night.

Oh, and what seems like the first time in weeks, Pax slept in 'til 7am. Wow.
