Sunday, September 10, 2006 Eric Nassau In such an internet-dependent age, it's not uncommon to have a handful of virtual friends--and once in a while, you're lucky and get to meet them in person. While I was on tour with Dan and Thomas, I heard a number of stories about Eric Nassau--how he instantly becomes your best friend, how his car quickly acquires a hippie smell, how he travels all the time and knows everyone. Eric and I had never met, but I felt like I knew him. And apparently he kept hearing about me from various people, and on Myspace he joked that we were the same person (we tend to play the same venues, and we know many of the same people). So last night I finally got a chance to meet Eric in person; he played at Uncommon Ground with Megan Palmer. It was good to hear both of them live, though I didn't have time to stick around and talk for long afterward. (Yes, he is indeed as cool as people say.) Megan accompanied Eric on violin and vocals during his set, and on hers (she's another singer-songwriter that plays both guitar and piano) he joined in occasionally on guitar and vocals. They'll be touring together for another week or two, so I'm sure audiences at the end will be in for an extra-special treat. Random note: Eric's infamous beard was everything I'd heard it was: two dreads hanging to his waist, and instantly recognizable. ^ Top | 11:50 PM | | |
