Small room last night, very wide but very shallow, maybe 40 between stage and back wall, sounded pretty good considering the small PA system, much better than The Scout Bar in Houston. No covers played last night, the band had a shorter set, over an hour but I can't remember how long exactly, all I can tell you is that they came on at 1:30am, played a bunch from the WC and had BobC, ABAC, 100th, Grace, and M@W in there as well, maybe more. After the show markslog and I drove BornALion to the Austin Airport, then Markslog drove me to the Dallas airport and I probably got a bit of sleep in the car but never for more than 10min at a time. This concludes my US trip following the Hip, I saw 7 shows with many highlights, now it's boarding time, maybe I'll get a few hours on the plane.

They came on at 1:30am? Was it scheduled this way?
Glad you had a great trip Steve! Can't wait to hear/see some of your material!

I can't say when they'll be available but I've got about a month without hip shows now so I should get some of them up before the next batch starts

You and me both. I'm impressed that you guys manage to do all this touring. It must be great fun - if not a little expensive. :thumb:

KWS was good, I'm not a big fan but they were really great blues musicians, they brought up all kinds of guests as well which was cool, I was just too tired to really enjoy them
