Dan Zanes

Dan_Zanes-20090718We enjoyed the Dan Zanes and Friends show at the North Carolina Museum of Art this evening. I’d been looking forward to it for so long (four years!) and Dan and the band didn’t disappoint. Their smiles becoming as infectious as the music.

Highlights were a cover of Wabash Cannonball, a whirling dervish end to The Monkey’s Wedding, and guest appearances by Raleigh’s Martin Luther King, Jr. Children’s Choir and the Durham Ukulele Jam Band.

Dan stayed after the show to sign autographs, which is very classy. But then again he’s just a great guy.

It was DZ and Friends’s first visit to the Triangle. We’re already looking forward to the next one!
