It's been a while since I've been out to the desert, and I figured I'd better make my move before the heat really sets in. Jane's acquaintaince, Steve Lester's, variable combo the Shadow Mountain Band was playing at my favorite venue, Pappy & Harriet's and we had to go check them out. The Earth Day line-up was Steve Lester (Guitar/Vocals), Damian Lester (Acoustic Bass/Vocals), Gar Robertson (Mando, Dobro, Guitar, Vocals), and Johnny Ray Martin (Autoharp/Vocals). Played some old standards and some originals.
Had a fantastic time, made even better by the fact that we ran into my old friend Vincent Devlahovich who is now Department Chair of Earth Space and Environmental Sciences at College of the Canyons – congrats. I can say from first-hand experience that a geology field trip with Vince is an experience not to be missed. He's a total Earth Guy. Down below is me holdin' up the wall and getting recovering from a big day of visitin.'
