Killing Me Softly

I had such a great time at the Fleetwood Mac's Rumours cover show that when I heard that Dwayne Gretzky was having playing again Tuesday night at The Dakota I had to go down for a song or two. You couldn't actually fit 600 people into this basement venue, but the room was nevertheless packed.

The increasingly sweaty and vocal crowd sang along to every song. Dwayne Gretzky ran through a fair number of the same songs as last show but at 3 sets, there were also lots of other tunes. 3 sets? Yes. I don't usually stay for more than a set or two. But it turns out that tonight was a special occasion for a friend so I hung around. It turned into a wonderful late night (show ended at 2 am) but I'm definitely paying for it today.
