Langhorne Slim at The Summit in Columbus, Ohio – Images by Will Godfrey
Well, all good things have to come to an end sometime and the Winter 2010 Langhorne Slim tour is no exception. After narrowly escaping a mini blizzard that blew into Atlanta on Friday afternoon, I spent a relaxing evening in downtown Knoxville listening to some sweet tunes at Barley’s before getting a nice long rest to help with the second leg of my journey to Columbus, Ohio.
What a strange occurrence my drive North was. I ran North to get away from the snow (this is just strange to me) and it all disappeared until I hit Ohio where I saw about a foot of snow packed on the ground that looked like it wasn’t going to go away until Spring. I even managed to test a few laws of Physics specifically relating to friction while loading gear in and out of The Summit that evening. Let’s just say the Looney Toon’s ain’t got nothing on my slipping abilities.
Oh! I almost forgot! We also got to push and pull the band’s van out of a snow packed parking spot before Langhorne played on Saturday and it was stuck pretty good. But we managed to win out. Only downside was that Slim interrupted a nice little backstage recording session where Justin Glanville and David Moore were improving on two acoustic guitars while making Mia Krout laugh out loud numerous times.
And on to the final show of this incredible tour. The space at the Summit was packed. The show sold out before April Smith and the Great Picture Show started and the crowd was ready to party. April got the room grooving and Langhorne got them jumping.
The energy in the room fueled Langhorne Slim to play a 10, yes I said TEN, song encore that extended the show past 1 a.m. Boy did it feel great. The crowd loved it and so did I. A couple times I found myself just listening and enjoying the show instead of photographing it. Whenever this happens, I know that I am a party to a night of rock ‘n roll that I won’t long forget.
As I mentioned in an earlier post, Justin Glanville and I have started a new business venture called Live And Breathing where we focus on audio recording that makes the sound alive as well as multimedia promotional pieces for Artist’s websites. So Justin recorded the entire tour so that Live And Breathing can make its first live album. Look for sample tracks on our website in the near future.
