Great time at Pies and Pints last night. The Pie Float was just me, Tom, and Colin Klein. I love how the lineup changes and so does the rotation of songs. Best part is that it always sounds good and have yet to not have a great time playing.

Gus Clark and Katie “McMuffin” played some nice swingy/blues with resonator and saw, yes, musical saw. I threw a small diaphragm condenser underneath and pointing up at the blade and it actually picked up the saw really well.

The night ended with a great dance party. Susie(?), who’s become a regular, showed up early and one by one her friends joined in. By the end they were dancing up a storm to all the ballads, hot-picking bluegrass numbers, and even our bastardization of “Blister in the sun” / “Purple Rain”.

Here’s to more like it in 2010!
