Got my lazy out and played an open mic last night.

When we are in Annapolis I just can't do it. There are a few in town, but they start very late and I'm just to tired after a day of that dreaded four letter word, work.

Back in St. Pete the open mics all seem to start at a sensible hour. 7:00 musician standard time, a'ka 7:30 ish. Usual nerves after a hiatus, but not to awful. I played three relatively easy covers solo, then I was joined by some guys for two more tunes. The "band" consisted of me on acoustic and vocals, then a couple of guys on electric guitar, bass, drummer and a harp player. One of the electric guys is the host who is terrific. His guitar, also terrific, a mid 70's gold top LP with a Bigsby. As is typical with these jams it was a bit chaotic in spots but way fun.

The set list
Tupelo Honey, Long May You Run and Shanty solo
Keep Your Hands to Yourself and Stormy Monday with the band.
