Let's see -- Reels & 9th Street Billy -- awesome -- Patsy Cline -- more  
awesome -- Ray Mason on bass and Eric Lee on fiddle -- even more awesome!
 
Ah yes.  I knew there was something additionally awesome that I forgot  to 
mention.  TK new CD "Better Dreams" was available at the merch table at  PACE, 
right alongside the Stringbusters CD.  This preceded the official  release of 
"Better Dreams" by about a month.  CDs are often available at  shows before 
release dates.
 
In '03 I was able to nab the first copy of "Stand" sold at a show at the  
Grey Goose in Londonderry, now Tupelo Music Hall.  No such luck this time,  but I 
did cop CD #1 (at a show) in the state of Massachusetts.  "Better  Dreams" 
had been available the night before, at the Red Molly - Kennedys show in  
Irvington NY.
 
I had heard the whole album during the break of TK's show 10/14/07 in  
Medfield, when they played it over the sound system while almost everyone was  
downstairs in the fellowship hall of the church.
 
"Better Dreams" features a star-studded supporting cast of musicians  --
 
All of the Strangelings --
 
Pete & Maura Kennedy
Chris Thompson
Rebecca Hall
Ken Anderson
Eric Lee
Cheryl Prashker
 
In addition --
 
Sloan Wainwright
John Kirk
David Jacobs-Strain
Cadence Carroll
Rachel (sic?) Davis
Dan Navarro
Radoslav Lorkovic
 
"Better Dreams" is something of a concept album, featuring twelve original  
songs inspired by their dreams.
