last night jon and his band rocked the house at jazzbones in tacoma. i snuck a couple photos and a video during the soundcheck. i loved the quiet anticipation in the vacant space. today while reading in the bath i came across these lines in my *book by kate braverman. they made me pause and consider jon and this new musical adventure that he is dipping his toes into.
"i realized that our lives are not static, passive, but rather a dance. it is not enough that you choose it. it must also choose you."
*i may be pulling more words from this amazing little book as i read it, yet once again.
jon and his band "after zion " will be playing on friday the 19th at nectar in seattle. have a listen at some of their tunes over here. the show will start at nine, come dance with me!
i could listen to that sound check all day. that was beautiful.
and what a contagious smile when he's playing! (from your most recent post)

PLEASE - let us know when his next Friday show is. We had so much fun at Jazzbones but can't make it to Seattle tonight. And a Friday night show would be so great!!

Heather - what a beautiful quote! I must agree...I've got to check out this "Kate Braverman."
Also, loving the sound of the guitar. Wish I could be there!
Wishing him great success!
