Part of the California weekend bash with The Donkeys, here is the second-to-last Casiotone for the Painfully Alone show ever!  My audience recording was unusable, but thankfully the board feed was decent.

Owen Ashworth is hanging up the Casiotone for the Painfully Alone moniker after 13 years to pursue other musical outlets, but he’s closing things out properly with an expansive tour across the US and Europe.  Your last chance to catch CFTPA in Denver is two weeks away, Saturday 9/11 at the Hi-Dive.  Last year’s Hi-Dive show is still available for streaming, but here’s yet another set I recorded during Owen’s Summer 2009 tour.

Here’s a Jeff Tweedy solo show I taped a few years back at the Folks Festival in Lyons.  I know this recording has made the rounds before, but every time it gets posted, there seem to be people interested in grabbing it.
