Alexandria VA



The Birchmere in Alexandria VA is a cool place for a show.  All good gear, Vertec array with subs and fills, Midas Legend 3000 out front, a little monitor board, and a great crew.  There was something funky with the mains that was difficult to nail down (I'm guessing a phase problem somewhere) but aside from that we had a great time.  This was the first show with a co-bill singer/songwriter, and it was great to see them in action.
From here, I flew home for a couple of days, voted, and had an election night party at our house.  Great to be home, great to see friends.  Thanks to the lovely Kim for setting that up.  I didn't feel like blogging much while I was home, so now I've got some catching up to do.  I'm actually waiting for a flight from Portland OR to San Francisco CA, and taking advantage of the free wifi in the airport.  I guess I'm cheap, but paying $10 a night at the hotels for internet is not my cup of tea.

More later, on travels in Portland, Eugene, and San Francisco.
