Cambridge

This morning I walked around Harvard square and stopped in Pinochio's pizza for a slice, then off to soundcheck. After sound check we all met up for a delicious dinner at the hotel where the Regattabar is located. Two shows tonight, didn't look like there was a bad seat in the house, very intimate setting.

Afterwards, back on the bus and into my bunk to watch a movie.

Let's have a look at tonights setup shall we?



Changed my rig around a few nights ago and have been enjoying the new set up.

Today at the Ridgefield Playhouse

Photos I took this morning

Berchmere - Alexandria

Always a great audience at the Berchmere. I really enjoyed the set, some nice moments in the music tonight. No problems with my thumb nail either, I repaired it this morning and it worked fine for the show.

A little technical difficulty During sound check as there was an issue with my keyboard not putting any sound out. However, it turned out to be something other then the keyboard and in about 15 min later we were back on track with the sound check.

Rams Head - Annapolis

Great show at Rams Head, always a warm welcoming audience there. At the end of the set on the very last guitar strum, half of the acrylic on my thumb nail popped off tearing half of the tip of my actual nail. No time to make a repair as I had to walk right back out on stage to play the encore. Trying to play a rumba strum with out getting my nail caught in the strings was a good challange, had to adjust the way I play but still seemed to work out fine. Fortunately there were no more songs after that.

It was great to be back in Annapolis, I've always had a good time in that town.

A word from Stevo

Hello there,

So I've received word the past few days from some fans that they have wanted to yell stuff out or give some hoots during our performance. I want to let everyone know to please feel free to give some hoots or yell out if you're enjoying the show. We enjoy knowing that the audience is having a great time.

Timmy!

TODAY - ECHOES RADIO

Performed on Echoes this morning. We played 4 pieces that turned out really nice. Great bunch of guys down at Echos, they made us feel very welcome.

Sellersville



Two shows tonight in Sellersville. First one at 4 and the second one at 7:30. My strings weren't happy today because it was raining out and very humid. It felt like I spent the entire first set set tuning. By the second set my strings seemed to be somewhat settled but they still needed some tweaking. I have to say that I enjoy playing later in the evening, I'm a night person. 4 is a bit early for me, I think Ottmar feels the same as he performed beautifully in the second set. Overall we had a nice time today and it was great to talk with some of the fans and sign a few CD's after the show. Thanks for coming down tonight!

Special thanks to the fans sending links to their photos from the past few shows!

Today in Buffalo, NY



Saturday Morning: Got out to see the Falls this morning. Haven't been there in years and was great to see it again. Looking forward to the show tonight.



Sound check: When I got on stage, I noticed that every time I got out of my chair I was getting all of these static electricity shocks. It took me a while to figure out that it was the plastic chair they set out for me, or at least it seemed to be some type of plastic. So I asked to have it swapped out for a different chair and I got no more shocks.

Show: Nice show tonight.
