Sorry for getting this out late. This show was a bit disjointed, but a fun one. Started out playing a few tracks from some artists who will be in town soon. Most of them will be with the Hotel Cafe Tour (Jesca Hoop, William Fitzsimmons & Ingrid Michaelson, Meiko) which will be at the Wonder Ballroom April 9. Gonna be a great show. These guys are rejuvenating the singer/songwriter genre. I will be interviewing at least two of them for my April 4th show, so tune in!

Played Post Harbor, who will be down here for an in-studio performance and interview this next Friday, in support of their show the following night at Kelly's Olympian. Real excited about that one.

Check all these guys out as soon as possible. All great songwriters in their own respective elements.

The second half consisted of a crazy, jammy segment from a 1968 Grateful Dead performance. I just acquired from a friend all their known recorded concerts from 1968. Insane stuff. This was jamming back when it was jamming, pure musical experimentation. Take a listen.
