We had our first show of the tour last night. As promised, the set was long. The crowd seemed pretty into it, which was helpful, and was very forgiving of our few mistakes. All in all, though, it went much more smoothly than I had expected.
My set was really fun. I feel honored to get to sing the songs I do in this set, and to have such a great group of musicians backing me up. It felt like we were on the same page and it let us be free to spend a little bit of time exploring.
We've been driving for a good long while, it's almost noon and it looks like we're just pulling off the interstate here in Nebraska.
Thanks to everybody who came to last night's show. I'd love to hear your thoughts about it, what you liked, what could have been better. Oh, and if you have any good photos of the show, send them here and I'll post them.
I think we've sold out, or close to it, tonight, so I'm looking forward to that. After the Caedmon's show I'll also be doing a short solo set at Grace Chapel, 4000 Sheridan Blvd. here in Lincoln. Love to see you there! Thanks again everybody, and I'll try to get some pictures up soon.

Hey man, be grateful. Today's actually pretty warm comparatively. And the sun is shining and the snow is melting. And we're excited to have y'all here in Lincoln! Looking forward to the show! You're at Grace Chapel tonight after the concert at Berean?
Great show last night man. I wasn't very familiar with your music, but now I'm a fan. It was cool to see all of you on the same stage. Good luck and God Bless with the rest of the tour.
So what was your set, Poopsenga?
I loved "hold the light" LONGER GUITAR SOLO..... JIMMY PAGE STYLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man ... I hope Mike's recording came out!
hold the light was definitely the highlight for me. and the guitar you were throwin down on thankful.
musically anything Jimmy Page style is a good thing...
It's killing me that there aren't in shows in Ohio . . .
Great show last night. I wish the crown would have been better for you but the ones that were there will never forget how great a show it was. I will be sure to get you a Toad Suck shirt when they come out in May.
I agree with Jonathan, It was a great show. I think your boy should have played the organ on "New Beginning", but it as well as Hold the light were still amazing. Great Tone out of that New Guitar, btw
Friday night's show was awesome!!! I'm so glad I got to be there to hear the band live and that y'all played so many songs.
