Last evening, Tom Rush was scheduled as the opening musical performer for the Prescott Park Arts Festival. The rain and fog conspired to make the stage inhospitable for valuable guitars and electronics. Tom could have elected to cancel or postpone the concert, but instead invited the soggy audience to join him in the dressing room tent where he planned to perform a few songs to make our trip worthwhile. We squeezed in, and were treated to an intimate concert lasting about 1 1/4 hour. There was no lighting and a minimal one speaker sound system, but Tom sounded great and delighted the crowd with his music and good humor. It is always a treat to see Tom, and we look forward to his next visit.
