This was a road trip that I did my best to prepare for. Given all that I was going through in retrospect, I did fairly well. Looking back weeks later, I would say we were lucky. We being our saxophonist Anton and our keyboardist for the night, the multi-talented Allen Cook. They rode with me in the Odyssey. It has it's inherent noises and issues but we made it there and back just fine. Allen commented on a pull to the left, which I had noted as well. It turns out that I had a hole in the front left tire (for quite some time, actually). I think it took a very cold morning and a long drive to Norcross to bring it to my attention with a swift reduction of tire pressure. At least I was not travelling per se with others in a time-sensitive situation.
We got to the venue a bit early, but better early than late. I set my gear up and waited for soundcheck. No worries. Glad we could have as few minutes to chill. Early is so much better. We were outdoors in an open-air tent that was very nice but chilly in the evening. The view of the golf course and lake behind us was spectacular.
