I was just thinking the same thing. Can't believe I missed such a rare show. And it'll likely be years before he makes it back to these parts again.

I almost missed it as well. I was flipping through the swerve magazine the sunday before the show and as i turned a page his name caught my eye at the top of the page. Went back to check it out and found out about the show.

Apparently he was in town to play someones birthday party the night before so played a public show the next night. Was a fantastic show, just him and his guitar telling stories. Met him afterwards and he mentioned that he'd be coming back soon. Probably just talk, but hopefully it's true. I'd love to see him with the full band as well.

Here's a shitty picture of him with me after the show.

Good stuff. Thanks for sharing! Hopefully he'll be back in town soon.

He finished his show with a solo version of pancho and lefty which was fantastic. Just saw this link from the other day of him doing this one with some help as well...
