Summary:
Our final Barnstormer tour of 2011 got ambitious. We took it out of the
Midwest for the first time and began the run of 8 dates on the east coast.
Little did we know that
Hurricane Irene wanted to pay a visit. The tour was originally supposed to be nine days, but
Irene hit the area we were going right at the worst possible time. We played the first show in
Maine, just across the
New Hampshire border to a receptive crowd, though the night was full of oddities that we couldn't wait to never think about or have to deal with again. We performed in a
Dance Hall there after some last minute shuffling. Doug Paisley,
We Are Augustines,
Deer Tick and
Guards all performed, but the night was soured with strange power outages and menacing cops that caused a shut down of the show before
White Rabbits could play. We were all steamed and this was the day that we got the call that our show the following night at the
Brooklyn Bowl was canceled because that part of the city was located in a mandatory evacuation zone.
We were riding low at this
point, but we drove on to
Burlington, Vermont, on a beautiful day. We slept there and awoke in the morning to Irene ripping the city and -- we would learn the following day-- the state a new one
. In the teeth of the hurricane we had one of those shows that you couldn't possibly dream of. It was magic.
Huge crowd, beautiful barn called the Old
Lantern, bending trees, unbelievable wind and rain and the bands all killing it.
Paisley got trapped in New Hampshire and didn't make the show so it was a four-band bill of White Rabbits, Guards, We Are Augustines and Deer Tick.
Watch these videos for the shenanigans.
It's the only thing we can tell you. We headed to
NYC for a club show at
The Living Room the next night, joined by
Princeton for the first time. It was the last night for Guards and We Are Augustines.
We then made the long haul to
New Wilmington, PA, where Chaseland treated most of us really well. Princeton,
Wildlife (after getting sorted out at the
Canadian border), White Rabbits, Doug Paisley and
Hacienda played before a crowd of
Slippery Rock folks in a gorgeous old barn in
Amish Country, with horses and buggies literally driving past while the show was happening 10-feet away. There was a beautiful outdoor pool, pool house and mansion here and we felt very welcome. The next night took the rolling tour to
Akron, Ohio, which was a killer barn in the middle of a
National Forest. We then got to familiar territory where we stopped in
Dexter, MI, where
Jack's apples were right and the mosquitoes were hungry. It was warm night and the barn once again treated us well.
On to
Monticello,
Ill. where the night got crazy. We added
Psychic Twin and
Hundred Visions for the night and the Kalyx
Center went
NUTS. The springy floor got bent out of shape during Princeton and Wildlife sets and we had to partition off the center of the dance floor less someone should crack through the center. The show turned out to be amazing though and we all got sleep before the grand finale at Codfish
Hollow, where we had the largest bill we've ever had there, adding
Madi Diaz,
Keegan DeWitt and
Nona Marie & Her
Choir. It was a wet day and wet night, with everything but the inside of the barn covered in mud. We had a dedication of some
Neil Young to the patriarch of the farm, who passed away earlier in the week and the bands were tremendous to end the tour once again. These 8 days of recordings are as fine as any Barnstormer collections go.
