Barry, Terry and Carter from Carbon Leaf made a quick stop in the Carter Subaru Mountain Music Lounge between arriving at Sea-Tac and heading over to the Showbox Sodo to do a soundcheck for our CD release party. (You can hear that quick session here.) I grabbed Barry for a short chat about the band’s rider — the part of their contract that specifies what foods and beverages the performers require backstage at their shows. The bottom line: Healthy pre-show, not so healthy post-show . . . but a lot more fun.

I hope I see you at the show!
