Sober Enough

Friday night ended at the crack of dawn. It started at Elijah's in Fort Green where there were just about as many stringed instruments as people kicking back on the couches. It ended with a long walk through Williamsburg back up to Greenpoint just before the sun came up. At Elijah's we were drinking whiskey and jugs of wine to celebrate his birthday, passing the guitars, basses and mandolins around to anyone who was feeling a song. Drew Nix and Elijah are in a band called Elephant Army, they got an album coming out soon that they recorded down at Sun Studios. Drew wrote this song, and, like he tells me at the end of the recording, it's the first track on their upcoming album.
