Great set at Iota Saturday. Georgia Avenue was good, but I was waiting to see Erik and Todd play together (it's only been six years since I've seen an acoustic show of theirs). In contrast to Dana's report from the Iota show in March, the crowd seemed very pro emmet - not much talking, and a lot of singing along. "So Lonely" was a crowd request, and went over well. "All Fun And Games" was a song (cover?) that Erik and Todd used to do before Erik joined emmet. When I talked to Todd, he wasn't sure about new dates for emmet or Quitter, but did hint that you might want to keep New Year's Eve free.
