I was producing my first concert in the town of Mendocino. Tom was driving south on Highway 1 and had added up the miles on the map. What he didn't know was that it was a slow, winding road for hours, a much longer time than he had planned on . He called to say he would be there in time but would meet me at the venue. He managed to make it just a few minutes after start time. None of the people had ever heard Tom; they were there because they were fans of the song "Delicate Balance" which Steve Seskin always sang. They were all sitting there in rows of chairs waiting quietly when Tom walked in. Apparently he was used to about 25 people coming to house concerts and there were twice as many. He looked at me in surprise and said quietly, "I hope I'm good."
