Some nights only a few tables are occupied, often by family and friends of the musicians. Furthermore, the food is quite good and a fair part of the crowd is their to dine, not to listen. Ask Stan Kessler about that.the unthinking lemminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10474976634853731048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-694480735393172006.post-87722815774620600162011-09-20T11:45:05.576-05:002011-09-20T11:45:05.576-05:00Heard Dan Deluca and Jim Mair at Cafe Augusta in L...Heard Dan Deluca and Jim Mair at Cafe Augusta in Lenexa Friday night and they had a full house.

Gerald Dunn are you reading this???<br /><br />I couldn't agree more that Cambron, Spaits and Otto played great, but I didn't think AW was comping too loud. At least from where I sat, I could hear everyone just fine. At some points, Wilson would strum loudly, but it wasn't constant. I thought his dynamics were great. Aggressive? Sure, but not obnoxious.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
