Opening Jam from Thomas Grogan on Vimeo.
First and foremost, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to everyone who came out Friday night. I speak on behalf of Chris and Garrett when I say we had a great time and hope you enjoyed our first performance together in 2 years as much as we did. Traveling and playing shows would not be possible without your support, and we appreciate every ounce of it.
When I first booked this gig back in December, I had no idea if I’d be doing it solo or with a band; I didn’t know if the rhythm section would even want to do the gig or be able to make it. Having played as a solo performer for a while, its little things you take for granted when you play in a band, and that’s why I chose the opening jam above as my first video post documenting the return of the force that is ‘The Grogan Social Scene ‘Power’ Trio.’ We never rehearsed this at all. It was just time to start the set, and Chris was locked in on this beat, so we went with it.
We decided to leave Baltimore earlier then our original plan on Friday to avoid any run-ins with Snowmagedden. We ended up having some time to kill and decided to swing by and say hello to our friend Lee and the rest of the gang at Electric Lady Studios before our show.
Here is Garrett’s version of the setlist he drew on the bus ride up (I was actually doing homework. I wish I was making this up). 
This is the version I drew at Grassroots where we kicked it with our defacto photographer for the night, Reuben Chess.
I’ll post pics as soon as we go through and censor them. I have to also thank Ron Vagit and The Baby for handling videographer duties. There’s plenty of footage I’ll be posting as soon as possible, so come back often. For now, I leave you with this clip from rehearsal earlier in the week. Chris and Garrett don’t seem too concerned with my heartfelt performance. I’m not sure what I was thinking.
