Day 7, Wednesday. This is when we hang out in Northampton, and stay out way too late watching Beau's band (the Beau Sasser trio) jamming away at Bishop's Lounge.I met Jeanne at her place, and off we went. First to Target, then off to 'Hamp. We wandered about taking a few pics, deciding where to go for supper. A local bar/restaurant has half price appetizers during the week, so it was decided we'd go there. I got a couple sliders, and stuffed mushroom caps. Jeanne had some Chicken Ravioli and Scallops wrapped in bacon. All was delicious. It was actually pretty busy for a wednesday night, which made for some interesting people watching.
After more wandering and picture taking we sat in Starbucks for awhile enjoying a coffee and people watching. It had started to rain lightly, but as long as it stayed light we were good. The band doesn't usually start until about 10-ish, so we get there about 9 or so and start getting our drink on, making jokes with the band and bartender as they set up. 
Started out with a Nut Brown Ale. I forget the brand, but was quite tasty, if not a tad heavy. I usually get Sam Adams, but the local microbrew ale's are just as good a choice.
I really thought I could fit more than one day per post, but that's not happening! Onward....

People watching is so much fun. Sounds like a great time!
Jeanne: at that price, why not? Yummy for sure!
Lynn: it sure is. And as eclectic as Northampton is it makes it even more interesting. hehe
Sounds like you had a good time.
Was the group that you were watching a jazz combo?
G: Sort of, kind of a jazz/funk/r&b mashup. they play whatever strikes their fancy. The link to their myspace has some tunes you can check out if interested.
