## Notes

Ben introduced most (all?) of the tunes today, sometimes in advance, other times afterwards.

The hall was packed tight. Good thing that it was a cool afternoon!

Myra's solo during _Small Thoughts_ was especially unhinged: lots of palm swipes and knuckle rolls. Not too many folks play piano like that!

At one point, Ben mentioned that the band is scheduled to hit the studio to record an album tomorrow. Should be worth tracking down, once it's ready.
