Michael Roe (with Michael Miller) July 22, 2009

We kicked off our House Concerts with Michael Roe, who began the afternoon with a Master Class, at which he discussed songwriting and production, told some stories behind the songs and how they developed, and explored some of the guitar techniques he uses to craft his songs.

Michael Miller opened the show with a fine set, with Michael (Roe) joining him for the final song, "Carolina Skyline".

Michael Roe's outstanding 90-minute set featured a wide range of material spanning his career, including some 77's and Lost Dogs classics and a mini-set from his new album "We All Gonna Face The Rising Sun". Interesting personal notes were added as Michael shared some pictures from earlier days fans had given him along the tour. As it turned out this provided an opportunity for one of our neighbors (who'd gone to grade school with him) to bring out and pass around her scrapbooks with pictures of them from 3rd through 6th grades.
