Cat Loves Crow

(and everyone loves *them*)

The perfect musical prelude to the whole July 4 musical shenanigans:

• July 2 ~ Karena and Joe Prater "live" at the Pegasus (where they recorded their Feb 19, 2000, Full Moon in February)
• I *knew* I'd get them in the end.
• If Julia Roberts had a cute younger sister who could *sing*, that'd be la bellissima Karena.
• I knew Joe was dangerous even before I heard him play - any man who packs an Epiphone can't be all bad.
  • Zut alors! Tom Rush appears on stage with a half dozen of those honeys.

First off, it was as full a house as I've seen at these excellent Pegasus concerts.

Damn'd distinguished audience, to boot.

Well ... OK ... as evidenced on the right, one or two dubious looking types *did* manage to sneak in ....

Karena and Joe both have wonderful voices and sing *the* most divine harmonies. I always wonder, did they sing that well together the moment they met - and *then* fall in lurve and commit matrimony - or did Cupid's plectrum twang and *then* they found they sang so sweetly together?

A *great* evening - thoroughly enjoyed by all. I'm just sorry I had to leave at the interval and missed Matt P joining them ~ altho' he'll be at Seabold, so don't no one miss him (or anyone else) there. 
(Psst - have you noticed how many guitarists - usually male - who can take tight audible solos seem *in*-capable of announcing the next song without rambling on for 2 minutes in totally *in*audible sotto voce tones? Just wanted to mention)
