Tin Cat has two shows this week. Wednesday from 6:30 to 7:30 (PDT) we're doing a live webcast. We've been working hard with drummer Mike Brilliot, and among other things this will be the full-band debut of "Over Ilsa," a new song I started writing one night at the movies. It may be a while before we get another chance to be heard outside the bay area, so if you'd like to see the webcast, you can tune into the low- or high-bandwidth streams.

Friday from 8 to 10 we're playing a terrestrial show at Barefoot Coffee, with Cameron DePalma opening. Then next Friday, Altamont Pass is there, with Colin Carthen and Philip Rodriguez, who have been performing as a duo, to marvelous effect. I'm really looking forward to hearing a full set from them.

Further off, I've just volunteered to book a weekly acoustic music series for the summer. Weekly! More details on that soon.

I heard on that radio that George W. Bush is the first U.S. president ever to visit Georgia. Is there a joke in there somewhere? Maybe not.

the audio was spotty, but "over ilsa" was fantastic. i saw the last 15 minutes of "indiscreet" on amc or bravo or something yesterday.

also, "head over heels" was awesome, and you should totally go into "broken" afterward. i dunno if you've tried it, but i'd like to hear "head over heels" with the men doing octave-below backing vox where there's the falsetto octave-above in the original.

Thanks! I'm unusually happy with "Over Ilsa".

Hm, "Broken". Why do I not listen to this album more?

Not sure what you mean about the falsetto... guess I'll ask you elsewhere.
