Hmmm...

Best live shows:

1. Strangefolk, The Big Easy, Portland, ME. First and only show in '05
for Strangefolk, first show back for Jon Trafton who has been fighting
rectal cancer <insert heiney sex joke here>. Packed, sweaty, mosh
pit-like room full of FolkFreaks, like a private party with great,
emotion filled music and loads of friends.
2. The Big Summer Classic, Great Woods. A gorgeous summer day, half
full shed, loads of fine bands, and hangin' out with Neil. X and the
Mrs. X. Perfect.
3. Phil and Friends, HOB Atlantic City. Great venue, great seats,
great brownie, great show.
