After a quick car ride from Chicago to Kalamazoo, which included a piece of the car falling off and a Starbucks Barista who didn’t know what time zone she lived in, we were ready for the second gig at The Strutt.
This show went so smooth. The crowd was great, as was the sound at the venue. I felt very comfortable from the start. The very beautiful and talented Mechele Peters opened the show. Her gorgeous vocals and heart-wrenching lyrics were moving and mood setting. I thoroughly enjoyed her set. Then, my good friend and old band mate, Chris Schleuder, made an appearance with his new band The Rumors Are True. They have beautiful songs with awesome harmonies. I also enjoyed their set and the great vibe they have on stage.
My set went really well, complete with a special appearance by Nick Davio on a couple songs on a piano that was at The Strutt. I picked up some new fans, sold a bunch of T-Shirts. Overall, a very successful second show.
