Name Droppings

In case you weren't in the know, the Abbey contains a handful of incredibly skilled musicians. In the past month, por exemplo, Evan toured the West coast with the Polyphonic Spree, sat in with Okkervil River at ACL and continues to gig with David Chenu and Tacks the Boy Disaster. Andy is playing at Stubb's tonight with Wide Awake, the band who recorded the Live Strong theme song (Andy plays string pads on it), and then gets on a tour bus at midnight to play keys for Chris Tomlin for the next couple of months supporting his new album. Last night, Tucker Roundtree was in town and played at the Elephant Room (the local jazz venue). Jason and Andy played with him and Evan sat in on a song. Roscoe Beck played bass (he has his own Fender signature electric bass). Eric Johnson showed up and had a "guitar wanking" session with Tucker for a couple of tunes! For an aging picker like myself that's some serious *#%!
