The Lover in Philly

Saturday night we played the Rotunda, located in the middle of the University of Pennsylvania.  It’s an old building that looks like an auditorium inside.  There were plenty of bands playing including The Absinthe Drinkers, Nicki Jaine, This Ambitious Orchestra, and the Oscuro Quintet, whose songs reminded me of Evan Lurie’s first record, Selling Water by the Side of the River.  I really like that record.

It was incredibly hot inside.  I was soaked by the beginning of the set.  To the precious people who came to the show and endured the heat for through our set, I am very grateful.  I enjoyed playing to them.

I drove back to NYC jacked up on coffee and Necco wafers.  My head hit the pillow like a bowling ball dropped by my four-year-old niece.  I sleep well after shows.
