Fiddleworms Atlanta 5/7/2006

> Hey Y'All,

> We spent the entire afternoon at the house as we had Charles and Mindie, DP and Kelly, my son, and a few other folks over. Lots of home brewed beer(brown ale and red ale, yummy Sequoia). With 2 Panic shows right around the corner, this was the right call to make as I could see 5 shows, in 5 nights. I saw these guys open for the Colonel and the Codetalkers back in January at Smith's Olde Bar. With Donna Jean Godchaux McKay on the bill, I felt compelled to wander down to Smith's. I also dragged Zee and Tim, what kind of host would I be to leave them at the house! We arrived and headed upstairs. Ran into my favorite local crew, Parrish, Dillon, and Jimbo! Great guys to hang with, and they know what they are doing. They really enjoyed meeting Tim. I set up in the sweet spot, dead center about 15 feet out. There were only about 40 people at the show. I was hoping the number would be 41 thinking that we could celebrate Tracy Frank's milestone birthday! Thirty I think!

> They came out just after 9:00 and opened with Poor Man's Devices. I enjoyed the Florence as it had a very nice twang to it. Someone playing washboard joined the band for a good version of Slide on Down the Road. They closed the first set with Tension. We had 27 minutes to unwind and hit the back room. Parish and Dillon were fun to hang out with as always! They had the room sounding very good. The second set opened with Let it Pass By. The third song of the set was a song written by Donna's son. It was a short second set, followed by a 2 song encore. Donna Jean STILL looks good to me. She was lightly dancing as she sang on most of the songs. She had a bit of trouble stepping down off the stage a couple of times. Someone was supplying them with shots during the night. Ted C. and his buddy who was celebrating his birthday were on hand, and trashed by the end. We hung in the back with Russell and Wolf Fiddle after the show. Back home to reheat some stuffed shells, chicken wings, and various other goodies.
