Great evening with Powers/Rolin Duo and Rose City Band last night. Barry Walker Jr pulling some double duty was an added bonus.

Now playing: Matthew J Rolin - The Dreaming Bridge on Feeding Tube. An incredible album from one of my favourite guitarists. I overdid the guitar soli stuff for a while and had to step away from it but this one’s a keeper
