Live and in person with the Bob Dylan Ensemble

Spread the word far and wide, I'll be singing and playing this Saturday at the Hidden Cove with the Old Town School of Folk Music's Bob Dylan Ensemble. For those of you around Chicago, come on out. Here are some of the reasons you should:
  • We'll be mining some pretty obscure material--great Dylan songs that you've likely never heard.
  • It's at the Hidden Cove on Lincoln Ave. north of Foster. Have you seen their sign? Come on, that's reason enough right there.
  • It's early, 7pm!
  • It's FREE. No Cover!
  • We'll be followed by Crustz, featuring Jimmy Tomasello and Steve Levitt. (No, I haven't heard Crustz, either, but I'll bet they'll be worth a listen.)
  • You know you want to.
Here's all the relevant info:

Not Dark Yet

A cover of a Dylan song that appeared on his 1997 album, Time Out of Mind:

The Cubs are down 0-2, have looked terrible against the Dodgers so far in the series, and now would have to win two in L.A. and one more at Wrigley. Game three is about to start... "It's not dark yet, but it's getting there."

I actually recorded this several weeks back but hadn't gotten around to mixing and posting it. It seemed appropriate to do so today.

Next up I want to get back to some more old timey songs. And hopefully at least a couple a month. We'll see.
