Notes:
This performance was on a Thursday night, the day before Halloween. Jason and band didn't have many people in the seats. You'll hear him say the three of you. I was at one table. A couple of happy dancing girls were at another table, and VERY happy to see Shawn. But it was a barren night for JRNB this night. The economy is down, the restaurant and entertainment business is slow. But road warriors like these guys are still bringin' it, even if there are just few of us in the chairs. Don't worry guys it will turn around for all of us. Hang in there.
They got a bit off the totally smoking hard charging sets that I've heard before, so you'll hear some softer stuff and some great dynamics. Gotta say I love the new drummer who keeps great time, plays a great shuffle, can make the cymbals ring and keep great dynamics in the lighter passages. Don't get me wrong, they really smoke at times, they just didn't kick the afterburners for a three hour set this night. It was still GREAT, just for other reasons.
I was worried about Buckweed's bass overdriving the recording, but my old settings held out really well and I'm pleased with the dynamics. Love his playing and speed. Rock solid for sure.
The new addition on "southern tours" on congas adds depth and augmentation of the rhythm section and his vocals are really cool, adding a jazz/jam band vibe.
The set presented here is the completed set. They played a full set followed by a break. The owner said just two more songs and they were shutting down for the night and heading home. The band did three songs. And on one of the last songs, Shawn's stomp box board began to fail, so there are some weird vibes in between his guitar and the amp that the recording captures. He unplugs and goes straight into the black Super Reverb, so you may hear a slightly different tone after that. I kept the tape running to catch Shawn playing back in through the pedal board where it seems it was back working again. It must have been the Halloween Spirits visiting a day early.
Enjoy this one. I think it catches the band having a good time on a slow night, but playing with great heart and skill. There weren't many there, but we certainly enjoyed it.
I'll quote Chuck Berry, from a rock and roll "revival" show in the late mid 70's where he played with a slew of vintage GREATS and only three rows of people showed up."Never have so few seen so much for so little". It was true that night and this one as well.
And to Jason, thanks for taking the time to talk. Hope the new, er old, mic makes it to the new CD. I'll be in touch. It is the morning of election day and I'm hopeful like I've not been in decades.
