Half of the band played at a private party in Santa Monica last night. A twenty five year old that like Bluegrass music. We screwed up several times. The mandolin player just can't play if its not in the mechanical time he has written down. We had to start over on a couple of songs with us counting together. The new lady singer wants to emote and sing slow love ballads. They sent someone over to ask us to liven it up. Which we did. Ended with Wagon Wheel which drew everyone over to listen and the the other two decided to do an encore of Summertime which went over like a lead balloon. Interesting experience. We've mostly been playing to our age group. Time to liven up.
