actually a good friend of mine is opening the show. he is a truly gifted artist. he will probably play until around 8:30pm then andy will probably play a song or two and then i will go on for a short solo set around 8:45 8:50 and play with the band after 3-5 solo songs. if you can come at 8pm please do but if not then i understand. even if you just stop in that would be really cool. it's free admission.
