Oh frak. I managed to kill my window and lose the post.I was almost late, but I was saved by the fact that there was a young lady opening for them. Half the band was gone (the whole string section) but I’ve mentioned before that they do very well with a partial group. This time they did a short set, Owls and Ostriches, Horse Song, and one with a name I missed. It took a moment to get the balance right for playing outside, but they started right after the previous musician, and the whole presentation was awesome. Two in a row means I won’t be mentioning that part again unless something goes either absolutely wrong or stunningly right. (I am going to run out of things to talk about though if my posts end up being “well they were totally professional and I adored the music. I guess now I have to actually figure out how one goes about reviewing music. Oh well, it couldn’t last forever.) I will say, for the larger venue of outside, they do need the whole band, but then to sound their absolute best they need the whole band anyway. This makes up for missing their show during Gencon. (Sorry, but it was my first Gencon in almost a decade. Couldn’t miss it.) Pretty awesome.
Pantree Owl take rather several.
