Madison, WI

I am sitting in Mother Fool's Coffehouse, a killer joint in Madison, drinking iced coffee and relaxing after the day's drive from St. Paul. Thanks to everyone at the Collected Sounds House Concert last night for making my solo return to Minneapolis such a total joy. Thanks to Amy and Greg for having me in their incredible movie set of a house. I was exhausted when I arrived at their house after driving 7 hours through construction and gruesome clear-blue-sky auto accident traffic (how does that happen?) from Lincoln, NE (though I did listen to a great book on tape, Miss Wyoming, by the guy who wrote Generation X and whose name is currently escaping me). What was the first thing amy granted to me upon my arrival? She led me to their HUGE bathtub where I promptly melted in for a soak. Now, when I say HUGE, I mean it. This thing could easily sit four and I had it all to myself in which to do laps and wash off the interstate. It could not have been a more wonderful beginning to a great evening.
I have no idea if anyone will come to tonight's show here in Madison, but this has been one hell of an adventure so far.
