It Takes A Lot to Know a Man (loop, clarinet, electric guitar, percussion)
Really, really good show this evening. He sounded great, mixed the delicate with the rock, told some good (new) stories. No ear infection.
The highlight for me was most definitely Trusty and True. Damien, and the harmonium. Had this great mix of Irish and Indian sounds. Slow, paced. Gave me goosebumps. Long Long Way was quite good. And then the closing It Takes A Lot was just over the top, with Damien picking up instrument after instrument. First time seeing him on Clarinet in 13 years of seeing him . . .
Great stuff. We were two from the front to the right of the middle rail/walkway, on the pavement.
