## Notes

Another fine gig out in Walnut Creek. 5 PM is pretty early for a jazz show -- nearly every performer comments about it -- but I like it for a bit of a change. Sitting inside in a dark theater, listening to cool jazz while the AC blasts, then getting out into the warm gloaming afterwards... very nice!

Today's set was fun: I'm glad I made it out!
