East Coast Tour off to a fun start

This is the first tour I've done without a trusty vehicle, and so far so good. Amtrak, MTA and my converse have worked well so far. I'll rent a car for the upstate NY and VT shows, but for now it's nice to not be driving for a change, although navigating the NY subway system with all my gear is a challenge!
Flew in on Fri. the 24th into JFK, played my first show in Bryn Mawr, PA on Sat. Tripped around NY for a couple days-always surprised at the intoxicating energy of that city!!
Now I'm in Philly after a show here last nite at The Grape Room, fun times were had. Spent the day exploring Philly and refreshing my American history knowledge, and 2morrow it's off to Harrisburg, PA for the last stop in PA.
It's been in the 80's, and I've been walking a couple miles a day. Hopefully that'll counteract my cheesesteak intake (nice band name). Might try and catch a Phillies game here tonight.
More soon!
