Re: Jim Carrol comes to Massachusetts
Thanks Arlene :) While we were backing Jim up it dawned on me how cool it was that he was even in Worcester. To have him play a couple songs just put it all over the top. He said that he would like to come back and do a whole set with us. Our fingers are crossed.
Re: Jim Carrol comes to Massachusetts
Thanks Arlene. What a great night. I really enjoyed everyone's set, but Jim was something special. His books were a big inspiration for me when I was in high school and to be able to share the stage with him was almost too much. There was a fantastic crowd last night. I'm really glad that there was an audience that could appreciate his work in Worcester. Very impressive night.
