June 19 2008: Carrie Rodriguez, Adam Sweeney - Iron Horse, Northampton MA

Went down to the Iron Horse to see Sweeney's last east coast gig before he moves back to Portland. It was pretty good times. He played a few new tunes that I hadn't heard and played the old ones as well as he usually does. Drew and Lisa and Caitlin and Mariah were there, and so was everybody's best friend BBC porter. And so was some lady who kept glaring at me and Caitlin while we were whispering things to each other during the music. I couldn't even hear Caitlin was saying sometimes, I just sat there nodding and then whispering appropriate responses like "that's crazy!" and "uh huh" back to her. But apparently this lady could hear everything. It was impressive.

Carrie Rodriguez and her band played after Sweeney finished. They were alright. It was hard to tell what with all those goddamn people whispering to each other.
