Groove

The Groove is a smaller venue with a very small stage. They didn't allow Joe to use his drum kit, just his snare and cymbals. The toms and bass drum were house equipment as were (at least some) of the amps. Despite these handicaps, the band played an amazing set. There were no tapes, laptops, and click tracks. The band is super tight and they don't phone it in. While there were only about 30 people in the place, they played as if it was a packed house. They played what was close to a greatest hits set and threw in 2 covers. The first was Sway, which is a nod to The Rolling Stones who were also playing in the area that night. The second was Positively 4th by Bob Dylan. While they were rushed out by the Groove management because another artist was coming in, they managed to maintain composure getting their gear stored back in their van while navigating the narrows between the tables and bar. Very friendly and humble guys. If you ever get a chance to see them, please do. You won't be disappointed. On a different note, the food and drink at the venue were very good. The service could've been a little more attentive, but was otherwise fine.

Intimate show. Tinsley playing some deep blues songs and sharing stories.
