I had some time off from work so I was able to roadtrip from NJ to winston-salem for Friday night's Ramkat show. I was not even planning to go but i got my hands on some extra cash, thanks to red 21 on the wheel of death (also known as the roulette wheel). I drove down friday morning and got to the Ramkat at exactly 8pm. Luckily that place has crazy security protocols and everyone had to get searched so the show started a little late.
Got to see both sets, which included some amazing songs (even a cover of Townes - snowing on raton!). Plus every time i hear revelator and down along the dixie line live, i feel like i am having a religious experience.
After the show, i sprinted to my car, which was parked pretty far away and drove back into the Ramkat lot. I waited like 10 mins and was lucky enough to meet Gillian and Dave. I was kind of delirious, maybe because i only ate a few cliff bars all day, or maybe because i was meeting my musical heroes. They both were so nice to me and even signed my Alvarez guitar that i just bought off of craigslist a few months back. Just an amazing few days and i still cant believe i had the amazing privilege to meet them.
Special thanks to Brent for taking these pics. And also to the woman who helped me meet Gillian as i was a little shy and my usual awkward self. I forget her name but it was her birthday so happy birthday to you if you ever see this. less
