One of the bloggers at DailyKos had some extra tickets to the Ani DiFranco concert in Hyannis for Sunday night.  Their car was out of commission and they were looking for a ride in trade.  Hyannis is two hours away, but the tickets were free, they were right on the way, and it was practically a good deed.  So we left the boys with Alberto and hit the road.

Kimya Dawson put on a beautiful opening act -- a great sweet woman full of shyness and steel.  She played her stuff, including a few of her songs from the movie Juno, and the crowd was in love with her.

And Ani DiFranco is 95 pounds of guitar-pounding charisma.  She and her band had 'em on their feet.
