Old Town School – On The Road

Dispatches from the road from our wayfaring travelers.

Rock Camp, Day Three

The band rehearsed today in preparation for an acoustic performance at the Gibson Guitar Showroom in Beverly Hills. As we were deciding what song to perform, Rami suggested “No Rain” by Blind Melon. When the song came out in 1992, I listened to it thousands of times in my car until the cassette wore out. The choice of song was certainly a good one as Rami got on the phone and asked some of his friends to join us on stage that night – Christopher Thorn (bass) and Brad Smith (mandolin) from Blind Melon, and Jesse Greene (violin), who recently toured with the Foo Fighters and now with Pink. Rami broke out his accordion and the extended jam version of the popular song went over big with the crowd. The band is really coming together this week and ready for more.
