A garden of earthy delights and delightful people.
It’s the late afternoon of March 2 at the Bash, and it has been wonderful and promises to continue. So far, I’ve heard Carl Sonny Leyland, Marty Eggers, Jeff Hamilton, Brian Holland, Marc Caparone, Jacob Zimmerman, Steve Pikal, Danny Coots, Dawn Lambeth, Paolo Alderighi, Sam Rocha, Danny Tobias, Jim Lawlor, and I’ve swapped hellos, stories, and hugs with Clint Baker, Riley Baker, Stephanie Trick, Paul Hagglund, Katie Cavera, Jeff and Anne Barnhart, Amy Holland, Rae Ann Berry, Barbara Sully, Bill Reinhart, and more. Tonight, if the stars align, I’ll meet the Crescent Katz with Jacob Zimmerman, Holland-Coots again (they blew the roof off yesterday and construction crews have been called in), GROOVUS, and Dawn Lambeth with Clint and Riley Baker, Jerry Krahn, and Ike Harris. Sunday . . . . more Carl Sonny Leyland, Jacob Zimmerman, and GROOVUS.
There are, of course, many other bands and itinerant musicians . . . but these are the people I’ve flown across the continent to see. And I’ll be smiling all the way home. Videos to come, if the Tech Goddess smiles on my efforts. Next year is the Bash’s fortieth anniversary — about fifty-one weeks from now. Make plans!
May your happiness increase!
I am kicking myself that I am not there with you to hear all these wonderful musicians.
Don’t kick: it leaves ugly bruises. Come here in 2020!
Some great swingin’ on in there….Girish
