Cafe Nine
New Haven, CT
April 12, 2012
Cafe Nine, located in New Haven Connecticut, provided the perfect setting for a show during this tour for Sam in support of Marcus Foster.
Having never been to the venue before, we weren't quite sure we were at the right place when we approached it. And then we saw "The Trio". Sam, Marcus and Jack were all outside as we walked up to the door, and they all said hello, big smiles... a warm welcome. We were in the right place :)
Sam took the stage about 7:30 pm and performed a selection of songs including "Science Prevents Me", "Passport", "Little Sister", "Details", "Woman You Crazy", "Soho Whores" and his most recent "Not Your Kind".
Sam delivered his set with his usual charm, amazing talent, and endearing humor. Whether he is singing one of his own songs, such as "Too Far Gone" or singing a cover of "That's How Strong My Love Is" Sam never fails to grab the audience and take them on his journey.
I think it's a special treat for the audience, to get to see Sam perform in a smaller venue like Cafe Nine. A couple of drinks, some great music, a few laughs, more great music, a couple more drinks, a few more laughs, a selection of photos being taken and in the end of the evening, hugs all around.... It was, simply, an evening among friends. Not much more one can ask for on a Thursday evening.
There is nothing more I can say about Sam's performance that hasn't already been said in previous show reports. He is meant to be there..... on stage, doing what he does, exactly the way he does it. And it's because of these facts that I will always be there, in the audience, listening, with a smile, whenever and wherever I can be.
Thank you Sam, for once again sharing your amazing heart and talent with me.
Come back soon! You are missed, truly.
