Finally I am getting to posting this. his was the night before, and the actual cross over into Robyn's birthday, the first of a two night swing through Oregon. Sam Bond's is a kick-ass neighborhood bar that has a healthy music calendar. It also is a favorite spot for some better known "rock stars" to have a good impromptu intimate gig, or just get back in touch with their bar band roots. Lemme tell ya, everyone was getting in touch with the bar this night. Sound is good, though my usual complaints about asshats paying $15 bucks to talk through a show are in order here. You may here me shushing some prattling dimwits at one point, but hey.

So yeah, a bit chattery at points, but well worth grabbing. If not because Robyn graciously played I feel beautiful for me and my wife, as we drove down from Portland for the show, we had some friends play the song at our wedding and it was a couple days prior to my birthday. Yay.

Cheers, enjoy, don't do bad things with good recordings.
