## Notes

It's a surprisingly stress free drive over to the Presidio today: just a little slowdown over the last fraction of the Bay bridge, then scattered spots of congestion as we cross SF. Having left extra early, I'm in no hurry, and that helps too! We arrive to get the last close-in parking spot across the street, beating the next car by under a minute. Saves us at least 30 steps!

The guys put on terrific show for us: nearly two hours of virtuosic interplay. I like it! Hopefully they'll see fit to get together for another album and tour in the future!
