Well, this was actually a pretty nice weekend, despite the sometimes rainy weather. On Friday night, we went to the Barns at Wolf Trap for the first time. We've been to the Filene Center there several times but never to the Barns. The acoustics were actually incredibly good and it was a nice, intimate setting. The show was great and definitely better than I expected it to be, as it wasn't an artist I was especially interested in. The opening act was rather good, too.
On Saturday, we went to the new CD Cellar in Leesburg. Though it was smaller than the Falls Church location, we actually found quite a bit of stuff to buy. Sarah bought more than I did, but I made some great buys, including finally getting The Who's Tommy on CD, the single for Trey Anastasio's first solo album, a freaky CD in the slightly scratched section by The Sisterhood of Convoluted Thinkers, and a pretty good cover album of Bob Marley by Ijahman Levi. We'll be going back for sure.

I was there on Friday with my sister -- and I almost bought the Ijahman Levi CD. :)

Well, at least *I* was nice enough to give the CD a home. ;) Actually had the guy stick it in the CD player to see if it was any good first. You never know with them CDs...

Ijahman Levi's pretty good... I have one or two of his albums. What year was the one you got done in?

It says 1995. And man, on the cover, he looks PISSED at you for not buying the CD.
