 Mavis was unusually talkative tonight, but she was also kind of incoherent -- she kept interrupting herself or drifting from one storyline to another. As best as I can tell, she'd spent part of the day participating in some sort of panel discussion regarding popular and folk music of the civil rights era with Chris Strachwitz, Linda Tillery, and other local celebrities. Mavis may have also been awarded an honorary doctorate, but I couldn't tell for sure; the main takeaway was that she was in a good mood and had enjoyed a great day in Berkeley.
-The band and performance were totally awesome, but one weird thing to mention is that it seemed like the guitar and bass weren't directed through the PA. So we got really full, rich sound from the singers, with good fill from the drums, but then relatively small sound from the guitar and bass. During the band's "solo" section when the singers were offstage, this was accentuated by the performance of relatively slow, quiet blues tunes instead of scorching burners. In fact, Rick Holstrom graced us withb what had to be one of the quietest guitar solos ever during his star turn, hamming it up with great facial expressions as he caressed the strings ever the less, diminishing the volume until there was only motion without sound. Interesting, but bound to be somewhat dissatisfying to folks sitting further back in the house!

 So  it was another fun night. Whew! I'm glad we went!
