WEGO: July 2012 Show!

Set 1 (45 megs)
Set 2 (44 megs)

Here are the recordings from WEGO's late-July makeup show at the Enlighten Cafe. The orchestra for the evening was Woody Frank (guitar and voice), Dennis Jolin (uke, percussion, theremin-thingy), Ian McKagan (guitar and voice), Jesse Silvertrees (djembe and voice), Evan Strauss (bass and voice), and Me Woods (percussion, trumpet, glockenspiel, voice).

With Evan heading off to graduate school before our next show, this was the last show with the entire recent 6-piece lineup for the foreseeable future. And so, with two strong, chaotic, and celebratory sets, it was a fitting closing to a certain mini-era of the band!

(There are two small edits in the first set: right at the beginning, to remove a bunch of sound-checking-in-progress, and again at the very end of the set to move the applause for Evan a bit closer to where we stopped playing.)
