Another memorable night at Brennan’s Pub, with Jeff from Cowspace not only graciously inviting me to open for him, but also joining me onstage playing a mean harmonica on the very first tune of the night: Dylan’s “Just Like Tom Thumb’s Blues” - what a thrill.  I was also graced by help from the amazing Son on a classic song by the Band that I just learned and David Bowick on BGV’s for our favorite Monster Magnet tune.  Special audience appearances were made by the incomparable Mike “MixBotler” Butler and the director of all directors, Jay Lee - thanks for comin’ out dudes.  Let’s do it all again soon! Check out the setlist, with a preview of some new songs coming up in future setlist blogs…
