Just another Friday night?

Okay, so last Friday I got to Green Plow around 6:45, a bit later than I wanted. As I drove down the alley I saw Jason Jackson, one half of our evening's duo, packing some equipment into the shop. Or at least it was a guy with a hat that in the dark looked a little like one that Jason wears, even if the guy was maybe a little shorter and stockier than Jason.

When I got inside I realized, of course, that it wasn't Jason. "Strange, I thought Robin and Jason only played as a duo." Then I realized that there was only one musician. It turns out that Robin and Jason had a family emergency and were unable to perform that evening, but they made numerous phone calls and were finally able to find someone to take their place. That was Leif James, the guy with the hat. Among the phone calls they made were one or two to Mandy, which we didn't get because the phone was in the car. I guess you just never know quite what to expect. This week I expect to hear Allan Byer on Friday night, and I am really looking forward to it, but you just never know.
