Or it seemed like that! Last night at the Iota in Arlington,VA, Eric Brace and Last Train Home with Peter Cooper took the stage for a joyous and triumphant evening of music. Eric told me afterwards that most of the players only had played sets before with some of the others. And by the way they were all A-Listers, including Pete Finney on magnificent pedal steel, soulful Jen Gunderman on accordion and keys, and the ever effervescent Kevin Cordt on trumpet. Our own Music Fogger Ben was having a hard time getting the players in back on camera as the stage was so crowded. After a short intermission, they added one more to their ranks, and brought John Wesley Harding to the stage for this great take of Top of the Bottom.

Webb Wilder "She's Not Romantic"
Our old buddy from our XM days, Webb Wilder, has just released a new music video on YouTube. From the WW website:
Memorial
Day Weekend Greetings, Wilderians! Webb
asked me to let you all know that he and film-maker Steve Mims have completed
their music video for the wonderful, evocative, and very relaxed song
"She's Not Romantic
." This track is part of the just-released
"More Like Me
" CD. The
video is available for your viewing enjoyment on YouTube.
Finally, we'd like to say, have a safe and fun holiday weekend. And of course, be sure to attend your local Memorial Day parades and celebrations. Let's show our appreciation to our service veterans, both past and present! Their courage and personal sacrifices keep us safe, free, and rockin' on!
Sincerely,
Your
pal and WW website wonk,
