Another good weekend of shows. This time a wedding on Saturday and Pies and Pints on Sunday. Though it surely feels like we’re getting to the end of summer and ready to hunker down for the winter.

The wedding was on the south end of Whidbey Island at Fireseed Farm. Creeping Time played it with the original lineup (Ken, Dave, Kjell, and myself). As soon as we showed up we knew it was going to be good. Lots of young single folks in the middle of that part of life where everybody’s getting married. They were itching to dance before we even started. Though I was super happy with how we played and all, I’m pretty sure we would have had to screw up pretty bad to tame the party spirit that was in that place.

Sunday Pies and Pints started off really strange. We played a couple tunes and the sound was bad and the timing was off and tuning and shit… We started one song, stopped suddenly after just a few measures, everybody started tuning, and then we just walked off stage. I thought we were in trouble… But by the end of the night we pulled it together and folks were coming in off the street to dance and even add some percussion to the jams.
