My flight was delayed, and by the time I got to Chester's place I had to drop bags and hustle right back out to my gig. Not only was Chester a gracious and patient host, he let me borrow one of his mics and stand, gave me a ride to the venue, and helped me figure out the sound system once we got there! Amazingly generous guy. The least I could do was ask him to warm up the audience with a song, which he gladly did, with panache.
As for the apartment itself: clean, warm, quiet, charming, and well-appointed. With ample restaurants / groceries right around the corner. As was Chester!
