Valentine's Day 2009

For those not attending the Brian Vander Ark concert in Grand Rapids on Valentine's Day, Groove Solution will be performing at the Lakeshore Tavern. Also, Revolutionary Road starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet is showing at the nearby Harbor theater, which looks like it might be a good movie to take a date!

Brian Vander Ark & Griff @ Charlie Foster's

I expected this to be an interesting show and was not dissapointed. Brian started out performing solo, and then Griff would join him off and on through the set to accompany on harmonica and vocals. Here is the setlist- I hope I've got most of the titles correct!

Little Man
Fit to be Tied
I Went with the Road (With Griff)
I Want All of You (With Griff)
Medicate Myself
1229 Sheffield
Lilly White Way
Cup of Tea
Penny is Poison
Mississippi Moon - cover (With Griff)
Surivival (with Griff)
What Happiness Is (With Griff)

Who Do You Love - cover (With Griff)
The Freshmen

Martyr Material
Out like a Lamb

Never Let You Down (with Griff)
Veneer
Ice Cream Man - cover (with Griff)

I know he played Hero somewhere in there too (Don't remember when,) and Griff joined him on the as well.
