The room was packed, and the iced tea was flowing freely. Bob was cooking up his usual tasty fare in the kitchen, and Dace was providing excellent service. That was the setting at Boulevard Place Cafe last night, so Rick, Holly and I tried to do our part. We rared back and let fly with the best acoustic, folk and gospel music we could muster.
Rick and Holly are the Indianapolis folk duo Patchwork, and it was my honor to share the stage with them at Boulevard Place. The evening had been set up through Robin Coleman and Segment of Society Promotions, and what a fun evening it was!
We played it “in the round”, sharing songs back and forth, occasionally jumping in with a harmony part or a fiddle or lead lick. The energy in the room was great, and when it came time to stop, I could have played on for another hour.
Many thanks to Robin for setting the evening up, and to Patchwork for allowing me the opporunity to be part of such a delightful evening. On March 8, it will be my pleasure to appear with Patchwork again, as well as with Cliff Snyder, for the Westside Club Benefit Concert. See the calendar on my web site for more information on this March 8 show.
Dean, thanks for letting us play with you. We had a ball, too, and all of our friends are saying that they hope we’ll make this type of event happen more than once or twice a year.
Looking forward to March 8th…and some wonderful 3 part harmony!
