07:37 pm - Reminder: HCB this Sunday in Greenbelt
It was a lovely day weather-wise for an outdoor performance yesterday at Bostwick in Bladensburg, though the ground was a little squishy for chairs and I was nervous about jumping around much. Other than getting my guitar tangled in the rafters of the pop-up shade thingie we were under when I went to play behind my head, some wind-versus-music issues, and too much of the audience thinking the whole event didn't start until we were halfway done performing, I think it went pretty well. A small event, just as the organizers had described it, on a pretty day. And I petted a sheep so that Perrine would have something interesting to smell sniffing my hand when I came home.
This coming Sunday (11 May, Mothers Day) we're performing at the 10th annual Green Man Festival in Greenbelt, MD, at 4:00 PM. The festival starts at 11:00 that day and ends around 5:00, so come out much earlier than 4:00 so you can see more of it than just our set. (I think other FB users can invite people to the FB event page for our performance there -- I hope so -- if you want to spread the word that way. There's also an event-page for the festival as a whole.) I may be a little biased here, but in past years the Green Man Festival has struck me as both a good place to bring your kids, and a perfectly nice place to bring your mother for Mothers Day afternoon. :-)
