i dont know if any of you are familiar with ed hamell, aka hamell on trial. he's a really unique and incredibly energetic performer from upstate new york who made a name for himself in austin. moved to new york city a couple of years ago and for some odd reason did a show at this little unknown place in the middle of nowhere, three hours from the city. how many people in the audience? myself and one other person. ed took it all in stride and did a full 2 hour show for us, complete with converstaion in between songs. i felt bad for him, travelling all that way, but wow. what a performance, and private too!!
