Last night I went to see Nina Violet, Kahoots, Chris Brokaw and TCD play at the Grange Hall. It was part of Kahoot Island Tour -- 7 towns in 7 nights. Nina Violet is becoming one of my faves despite being local. She toured with Willy Mason and opened for Beth Orton. The thing I partly love about the local music here is an unabashed love for nature ("plant tiny seeds and water them") and the 3-year-olds screeching in the middle of songs. I was lucky enough to record it all on my minidisc, though I fucked up enough with the recording that it's only for personal consumption.

TCD is three guys who haven't played together for 20 years. They do crazy shit, like playing a song then playing the song backwards. I've known one of them since 1989 so it was cool to see them.

i keep expecting nina violet to break through to the folk stations. There's a bit of representation at her myspace but it only is the tip of the iceberg plus she's got betty davis eyes

I'm here! We just got home from Joanie's 60th birthday party at the Gay Head lighthouse. There were fireworks, and an awesome singing of Happy Birthday, and then Bob projected movies onto the side of the lighthouse.
Then we had to pick our nephew up from the Aquinnah Kahoots show. Fat Tony's band was opening. They sounded pretty good.
Tomorrow Bob's going to project movies onto the side of our house.

Anyway, this was all TONIGHT, not last night as stipulated. Who can remember last night?
OH YEAH!!!! Fireworks last night, too!
