So, I’d had last friday marked on my calendar for a while already. Kim Virant was going to play an acoustic show at Piecora’s and I had rediscovered her recently. Where’s she been, anyway? Apparently she’s been playing music and I’ve been missing it. I helped record a demo of Lazy Susan oh so many years ago and have always loved her voice (she does a great cover of The First Cut Is The Deepest). And Jeff Fielder was going to be there as well. I’d seen him with the Jimi Hendrix tribute thing at EMP, and knew he would be worth seeing. THe line up was: Kim Virant, Jeff Fielder, Jared Clifton, Tony Fulgham, Tim Dijulio.
Anyway, it turns out that Radio Free Seattle was hosting this thing, and King Jill just review our CD (Momentum, in case you don’t know) and invited me out.
It was one of those magical evenings where you sort of stumble into something fantastic. The show was that good. I was so happy to be there, and glad that we got there early, because it was packed. I heard that they had to turn people away. The room was filled with great energy – I think everyone was well aware that we were part of a great show.
Thanks to Jill for putting it on!
