My friend and former bandmate Edward Burch and his girlfriend Rachel Leibowitz are moving to Austin, Texas. Edward is having a final shindig at the Hideout before he goes.

Edward’s announcement follows:

The rumours are true. Rachel and I are moving to Austin, Texas.

I felt it fitting to have one final Monday night at The
Hideout–and I’ve asked a lot of friends to help me out. They’re
coming from all over–including LeRoy Bach, who booked his train
ticket from the West Coast the moment I called.

So here’s your chance to come out for some fun music, a
post-birthday toast, and to wish us well as we prepare to mess
with Texas.

Among those threatening to appear:

LeRoy Bach
Nate Bakkum
Jay Bennett
Steve Dawson & Diane Christiansen
Steve Frisbie
Andy Leach
John Peacock
Quartet Parapluie
Kenneth PW Rainey
John Stirratt
and others

We would love to see you. Show starts at 8pm (and ends…oh God
Almighty, you know how it ends).
