Saw the show.  It was raining cats and dogs that night but the trip from central Jersey to Brooklyn was well worth it!  Ari is amazing.  He played a National and a beautiful Stella - every tune was mesmerizing.

Do you remember what songs he played?

[pete12string]

Oh boy - it was a few weeks ago.  He took requests from the audience (of about 20 - 25 people) for every single song he did.  Some of them were "Frankie", "Piney Woods Money Mama", "Meat Shakin' Woman", "Rope Stretchin' Blues",...  He played for about 2 hours.

There's nothing quite like Ari in "jukebox" mode.  Hoo boy!  Things got complicated at home and Kim and I had to miss out on that concert - maybe next time.

Pete,
Is it possible to park near Brooklyn Ethical Culture?  I've been meaning to get out to the Good Coffeehouse, but am not sure if I should drive or take the train.
