## Notes

Well tonight was really rewarding, even if the only new tune was Fleck's _Sleeper_; I would attend even if _Lôro_ was the only tune promised! On the other hand, now twice bitten (xref other AC10 shows, like [this one](https://www.funfolks.net/dw/doku.php?id=2019:2019-08:2019-08-03)), I think I'll make sure that the group has an album of new material to promote before seeing them again.
