Comment:

I recently had the privilege of atte.nding two concerts - one in a cafe, the other in a living room. Folk music was performed on both nights. I went to the living room gig because Beatbeat Whisper had performed so magically at the Salem CoffeHouse Cafe the previous night. A modestly sized living room in deep SE Portland, dimmed lights, and two acoustic guitars made the night memorable. After experiencing such a great grass-roots event, I wanted to capture some of what I was feeling on a mixtape. Three of the bands are represented here: Beatbeat Whisper, Firs of Prey, and Whiskey Priest.

Well that's what inspired the creation of this one, thank you to all who made it happen on St. Paddy's Day. Cheers.

Third Eye Blind was good live, but didn't really blow me away. I mean, they had the crowd going and all but were all business from what I remember. They didn't play "Semi Cha.rmed Life"- their most well known song. I felt for sure that they were gonna play it and they didn't- oh well. At least I could say I saw them.

Very interesting tale as to how the mix came about, and I'll be listening to the results later.
