I fink it was good.

My last show was probably among my best. The acoustic outing at The Sidewalk, where I've played a hundred times but still not enough. (You can hear a smattering of it here - "Suzie Live." I mean, that's just a great song, don't you think? Please just don't tell Suzie about it.)

Suzie Live

I mean, maybe it wasn't as good as THIS show:



(Gosh, will you look at those little guys? Sigh... The Germans made us feel enormous.)

BUT - I mean - I must have been having a good day or something. I don't know. Someone must have told me I was handsome earlier that day, because I was brimming with confidence.

Deb Disbrow, one of my best pals from Philadelphia, sang with me on three tracks, and she sings like a freakin' bird.

I still can't control my monstrous sweating problem while on stage, but I guess if I didn't sweat that would mean I was a little TOO relaxed.
