Excellent music this evening at the Triple Door: Vasen
A milestone event on many levels and a completely inspiring evening. Completed the evening by listening to "Tales from Topographic Oceans" end to end. This music still completely brings me to life and informs me in ways I can barely even hope to articulate.
Thanks to DonH and PaulO for help with Sketch Box song counts. Considering whether 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15 pieces on each CD makes for the right balance between flow and structure? Not sure without carving out a block of time this weekend to feel what is needed.
Also considering possibility for an Electric Gauchos encore show at Town Hall for June or July. Heard from MarkP that DerekD may be in town in a couple of weeks... Many potentials in the air right now. On top of all of this, I cannot remember feeling as much pure and freely flowing joy as I've felt over this past week or so.
A very creative period in process right now. Some exciting splashes beginning to fly in from England via RF and DS, and some splashes also being initiated now by PatM in Austin. Question to answer between now and June 30: what would you say (musically) if you only had a 2-6 second window in which to say it?

So where is this energy coming from? Maybe spring and the end of allergy season? Or maybe a completion of a seven year cycle drawing near? June 11 seems like a good target release date for the new SB Sketch Box.
