Great concert night tonight at Hooper's Cafe in Washago. John Ashe and I entertained the audience with our eclectic mix of songs. I only played 2 Dylan songs tonight! The rest were mostly my own songs, plus "Pancho & Lefty" by Townes Van Zandt, "Goodnight Irene" by Leadbelly, and one other cover tune (Spoon River). John did his usual mix of old country, various trad tunes the UK and Ireland, old murder ballads, stories about tragic death, and the odd truly unexpected gem like his recitation of "The Ballad of the Harp Weaver", a wonderful poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay.
