Diane, the excellent cook, is in the kitchen getting things ready, but she takes time to make me a double espresso. When I'm done I go home and learn a new song. Having a weekly gig forces me to learn new songs to keep things interesting for regulars who come in every Sunday. We start by playing quiet, slow blues. It's a different vibe from playing at a bar and we really enjoy it.
People clap after every song.
They start to realize that this is special and table by table we win them over. By the end of the night there are people dancing around the restaurant and out on the porch. What a great site. It's a good place to have friends sit in. Christine, the waitress with the beautiful voice, sings a few songs.
