And what is a show without a selfie in the hotel?!?
So we headed down to the city and got a cab to the venue, Schubas Tavern. We got there a few minutes before the doors opened, I believe that was 9pm. 9pm central. Yeah - kind of a late night for us - but so worth it.
We found spots on the floor - then changed as there were spots along the wall with coat hooks and seats if we wanted. First up for the night was Casey Shea. Honestly, hadn't heard of him - but I always love finding new artists.
Casey took the stage - and we just started laughing. The first bit of his set he spent chatting, telling stories, and was even sitting on the stage.
Yeah - that's him in plaid....
It was a great start to the night. We then got the opportunity to hear his music. He is extremely talented and for some strange reason I haven't ordered his music yet - but I will. Trust me on that.
For his final song of the night, he brought some guests out on stage. And honestly - I do not know that anybody recognized them - for there was far less excitement than I would have predicted.
Yeah - that's Jillette Johnson (next on deck for the night) and Michael Grubbs (aka Wakey!Wakey!) and their bands.
Beautiful music by wonderful musicians.
I do have to say that the highlight of Casey's show was a song that he played called "I Don't Wanna Wait." It was a riot. We loved it!
So, in honor of a long awaited evening - I give you "I Don't Wanna Wait" by Casey Shea
Sounds like a great trip with great music - loved that song!
