What can I say, thanks to everyone who made it – much appreciated.
What can I say? From where I sat (front row center) this was the best performance I’ve seen. Amazing really. Venue – perfect, sound – stellar.
Wow, just wow.

the bangles : hero takes a fall
First chick band that I thought was great. Listen to those harmonies and that lead guitar sound. Before they “sold out” (which they themselves admit) they had a great thing going. In 1985 I hung out pre and post show with them in a bar in Virginia Beach – still a night to remember. Susanna is still doing it with Matthew Sweet – Rain, Different Drum, Cinnamon Girl, You’re So Vain, Maggie May – check out “Under The Covers”.
zooey for the win
“She & Him” video premier of “In The Sun” – Zooey hula hoops! Stick a fork in me.

So I guess that mean you liked it?
Agreed, great venue and sound. Excellent audience. Nice to hear the stripped down versions of songs.
A good time was had by all.
KC, thanks for everything last night and all the hard work that went into making it all possible. Big props! As a taper, it was probably the most relaxed and easiest show I’ve ever taped!
The photos are just BEAUTIFUL! What a nice, intimate setting. Happy for all who were able to make it.
THANK YOU MR. MOJO! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
The night was incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And another new song came out to play. “Colors”
Nancy- Great pics sweetheart!
1st class event! Thanks Mojo! Thanks to all that donated their time – Grace, Matt, Justin, Jr., and Mojo’s family. And the best thing about it is — it benefitted the school and the kids! Wow! Fantastic! Love that posse picture. What a special night!
yay taper!
Congrats to all who got to expierence the show and contribute to the school. life just doesn’t get any better than that!
KC – what can we say, but THANK YOU for making such an incredible evening possible. It couldn’t have been more perfect from the weather, to the setting, to the music itself.
Highlights for me were seeing you enjoying the fruits of your labors with your family right there in that beautiful carriage barn and the debut of the song Colors. What an incredible piece of music that one is, and to have heard it first played on the piano and sung by Grace in that simply beautiful place is something I shall always remember. Moving is to small a word to describe it.
Meet and Greet out in the sunshine was a blast and handing off our cell phone to Grace to surprise Amy – PRICELESS!!
Thank you again, and again.
what beautiful photos of what must have been a very special and memorable evening – thanks for sharing!
I cant add anything else!! I’m still flying high from this one!!
Thanks again Doug!!
Maybe you could do this every year??
Very late to the thread – laptop was being a pain on the road for some reason – but had to add how much I appreciated this small intimate concert to the other comments being made. That the school benefited from our musical pleasure makes it just that much sweeter. Was also nice to hear Grace make it clear she appreciates how much work KC puts into this blog.
Suspect a show like this will be much harder to find after the new album drops.
