after a great evening in Raleigh, an interesting evening watching Chris & Dennis start their transfer when we got back to the hotel, and a first post show wrap-up over at livemusicblog, I headed down to Charlotte. i got a later start than planned, and unfortunately met some traffic. i do think i fared better than some folks. i got on lot early, and had some time to wander. the show kicked off as the sun was starting to set. it had to be blinding for the guys, staring into the sun, but they played on, and Fishman ended up in sunglasses all night. to close out two unexpected sets, that were all over the map, the You Enjoy Myself ended the evening with a vocal jam of Proud Mary & Get Back a capella, leading into A Day In The Life. enjoyed the beatles, what can i say. as soon as the show ended, i booked for the car. i made it out of the lot quickly and headed for Alpharetta. it was a long haul and the bacon egg & cheese on wheat at waffle house was necessary, and delicious. i checked into the hampton at 4AM & crashed. until tomorrow…
