Friday's gig at the Bistro

Yesterday, Donny called me to do a Duet at Bistro 221. It's an interesting gig because I play solo for about 1/2 the gig. Donny is very nice, but has a rather "rubato" style of singing which keeps me on my toes. I'm not quite sure what kind of feel his usual player uses for many tunes, but I'm pretty sure that it's different from mine.

I also enjoy the challange of reading through the tunes I don't know, and not having a train wreck.

One thing: I don't really feel comfortable playing solo gigs on my XP-80. I would really prefer to have weighted keys. I'm going to start looking into lower-end digital pianos.
