![SEPTEMBER 30 – GABE’S, IOWA CITY, IA [SHOW #91]
Day 113. 26,765 miles. Had a few days off in Iowa City to rehearse and work on some new material. Went to see The Wheelers play at The Mill, got some rest at Don & Tara’s place in Kalona while they were away on their honeymoon. The show at Gabe’s was a blast. Mumford’s played a fantastically wild set. The band is so much tighter after their recent tour, the horns were big, brassy and bold. Utopia Park followed with a huge synth-driven sound. We were quite blown away, and they were terrific and very energetic performers.
The jam in the van: DJ Soul / Loose Lips Sink Ships
The word we heard: “It’s nice to be playing with an American flag behind us” –Patrick, referring to the flag of Iowa hanging at the back of the stage.
Dinner was a winner: The Oasis
Our friend the Bartend: Ashley
We adore the door: Shawn
Sound Tech we respect: Andrew
The lightshow was delightful: Lance
Sticks, strings and broken things: Devin – 1 B string, 1 high E string
The fill of the bill: Mumford’s / Utopia Park
Devin the girls won’t all look like babes when you are sober at Gabe’s
Monument / Calling Card / Pacific Sunrise / Porcelain Brain / Give It A Try / Thousand Colors / Camille Claudel / A Collage Of Impressions / Some Ordinary Vision / Start The Revolution / Friends In The Band / When The World Sleeps / Grab Me An Old Milwaukee](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l9oodcIVB01qahyhxo1_500.jpg)
