Six String Cafe & Music Hall

Cary, NC
I am sitting on a couch facing the stage here at The Six String Cafe & Music Hall. I have not been here in almost exactly two years, when Mark Erelli and I did a split show while the baseball playoff raged forward without the Yankees (2002). I feel infused with baseball, happy for all of you Red Sox fans while simultaneously sad to realize that the end of summer is now truly upon us.
Amelia White has just entered the building and I am psyched to get the chance to hear her perform. We shared an afternoon last Spring at WPLN in Nashville and I was floored by her voice and her songs.
I had a great conversation today with the head flight attendent, Frank, on my flight from Houston to Raleigh. There were a gaggle of women on the flight who were traveling to North Carolina as part of a Bush campaign push. They were impeccably coiffed and spackled and when I tried to engage them to find out what had brought them to the conclusion that Bush was the man for the job, they shut me down with infantile insults meant to degrade and foul John Kerry. Here I go on stage...the story will continue...
