Get drinks at the restaurant bar, getting served once in the venue takes a long time.

boozy la belle
Wonderful acoustic set from masterful singer / songwriter Mason Jennings. Mason jumped from instrument to instrument while chatting up the crowd about his life and the reasons behind his songs (true or clearly total fabrication). Very touching and warm show with well selected set list from the entire Mason Jennings repertoire in an intimate setting.Written on Sep 13 2010

Description
Singer/songwriter Mason Jennings blends the personal insights of a poet, the political broadsides of a protest singer, and the broad musical eclecticism of a jazz musician with a rock & roller's passion. The result made him one of the most talked-about new artists on the acoustic music scene and earned him a loyal cult following, as he moved over 30,000 copies of his first two albums and sold out shows around the country without the benefit of a major-label publicity department.
Featuring just Jennings and his guitar, "Mason Jennings" was also produced and released solely by the artist himself. The album proved to be a potent calling card for Jennings; it received significant airplay on local radio stations, and the songwriter began playing a Thursday night residency at Minneapolis' 400 Bar, which soon won him a potent local fan base. Jennings' continued roadwork added to the enthusiasm of his fans and the positive press he received for his first two albums.
For his third release, 2002's Century Spring, he finally found a proper record company to release his product (Architect Records) and signed a distribution deal with established East Coast indie label Bar/None Records, which also issued Use Your Voice in 2004. The next year, Jennings joined as the first artist on Modest Mouse frontman Isaac Brock's Epic imprint, Glacial Pace, who then released Boneclouds in 2006. His relationship with Glacial Pace soured, however, and Jennings made yet another jump -- this time to Jack Johnson's Brushfire Records -- for the release of 2008's In the Ever. He remained with the label for Blood of Man, which was recorded in a woodside studio and released in 2009.
