I just saw Destry in New Hampshire with The Narrative and was impressed.

And I'll be at the Hoboken show for John's solo project. I hope someone puts up videos from the midwest dates, though.

I'm excited, it's actually part of my vacation so it should be a good time all around.

[carkey]

someone who goes to one of these shows should post about it, because i wont be able to make it to any but want to know how they are

I wish I was going! I bought one of John's new t-shirts from the webstore, it's awesome.

I went to the New Jersey show a little over a week ago and it was pretty damn amazing. The set list, at least that me and my friend can remember was 'til it's done to death, screamin into the wind, ten ton shoes, waltz #2, it's for the best, I Don't Believe You, Not to Let Go, This is How, It Takes A Long Time, Keep Calm Carry On. Ten ton and It's for the best were both done acoustically.

My friend Tommy went to the Tallahassee show the other night and he said John played Hands in the Sky with just an electric guitar, so that should be interesting to see/hear whenever he uploads that video.

I really enjoyed mansions, but I was a fan of theirs before this tour. Pablo was pretty good as well, though I was unfamiliar with them beforehand. Maxwell's, itself, was freezing cold the entire way through and I told John if they had hoodies at the merch stand they probably would have made a killing that night. Also, his cover of Waltz #2 is fantastic and I know someone uploaded it on youtube so people should go check that out if they haven't yet.

Aw, sounds great, I wish I could have seen it

maybe he'll be back through the area again before the summer ends
