The humidity was still with us today, but the temperature was only in the seventies… a blessing for sure. It’s been a while since we’ve been up in these parts and we sure had a great time. While waiting for the boys to set up our gear, Phil, Jack, G.E. and I found a Japanese restaurant in town and it was delicious. Sadly, I didn’t get the name or I would have put a link in here. it was great. Anyway, it was right around the corner from the Paramount Theater so it should be easy to find. I’m still trying to figure out how to do this photo stuff so bear with me. We’ll see what happens. Anyway, here is our set list:

There we go. Now let me get to the pictures. Before I do, we had one of our best nights tonight, I thought. Lots of grins before, during and after the show.
Caught the show at Purchase on Sat night, and it was outstanding. Clearly you guys feed off of G.E. and vice versa. You all keep touring and I will keep coming. Thanks for doing what you do.
I love the pictures from the road….
Jorma, how do you come up with your set lists each evening? Do you write them out ahead of time? Wing it? Have a rotation?
I imagine you worked up a book with GE prior to the tour. How many songs? Can you guys reach outside of that on stage or would you need to work it up prior to the show?
I’ve always been enamored with how bands approach this.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts from the road.
