Doughtyed

Went to the Mike Doughty show tonight at Schubas.  The simple (comforting even) set up of Mike on acoustic guitar and Scrap on chello was fantastic.  On this tour they've brought along a "question jar" to each show where people are allowed to write down and put questions into said question jar.  I threw a couple in there and they actually answered one of them.  I asked, "On Grey Ghost what do you picture the person listening to on the 'boombox nodding out?"  Mike quickly answered "Highway Stars" by Deep Purple.  Upon coming home and looking up the song right away I'm suspecting that his answer was fubar, nonetheless awesome.

One person asked how much money he made.  He was very hesitant to say, but eventually told us how much he made last year.  Even later he said not to go home and blog about it, so this is me not blogging the actual amount.  It's the least I can do for him putting on a great show.

The photo is of me with my promotional poster in front of Doughty's rental car.  I also have a video of a couple questions being answered followed by "Ossining."
