COMMENTS:

Sixteen year old Ruby Jane was teamed up with Tucson musicians Peter McLaughlin and
Evan Dain for this one show by Jonathan Holden of Rhythm & Roots Concert Series
(www.rhythmandroots.org). Peter is a former National Guitar Flat Picking Champion
from 1988 in Winfield, Kansas. He was featured in and sang lead vocals on the
John Anderson song, Seminole Wind. Ruby Jane has a great stage presence well beyond
her years and was very gracious to the musicians who accompanied her. She would
sometimes switch between her fiddle and 12-string guitar during the same song,
sliding her guitar to her back while she played fiddle. Her mother was in the audience
this night.

This relatively small indoor venue is somewhat long and narrow. The show was recorded
from approx. 2\3 back in the crowd, near the center and only 2 or 3 rows behind the
soundboard, which was located off to the side, stage left. The on-stage interview of
Ruby Jane by Jonathan Holden took place after the set break and just before the start
of the second set. For those burning onto CDs this interview track can be placed at
the end of disc one. There was no encore.

Fiddle Jokes told this night:

Q: What’s the difference between a violin and a fiddle?

A: The cost of the lessons

A: A violin has strings and a fiddle has strangs

A: You carry a violin and you tote a fiddle
