On Tour with Madison Greene
Summer 2001: I was able to spend some road time with Madison Greene- an amazing tribe of friends and siblings from Detroit, MI who create aggressive folk/world beat music. These photos are a small sampling of three separate trips we took together over the last two years.

The long-haired clan preps for an intense game of cards in the RV. |
Early morning at a hotel somewhere in the mid west with Erin, Mike and Kevin. |

|
The boys hang out in one of the unique establishments where we played. Tucked into the back kitchen, they sampled the home-brew. |
Jason (drums/percussion) and Erin Beck (vocals/violin/mandolin/percussion) spend some quality time in bed. |

Fine Arts centre, Calvin college (Grand Rapids, MI) Our sound-guy Kenny, (who was traveling with the band) takes a moment of rest at the piano, during load-in. |
On stage between sound-check and dinner, Erin spends some time writing. |

. At the Nerad home in Michigan, Kenny (sleep deprived) Nicky (who helps with the merchandise table) and Erin- on the sofa after dinner. |
You and what army: Bone (bass) on ukulele at the Nerad house. The look? "Don't mess, an pass the grits, ya'all" |
|
|
Trouble Brewing: Jason uses a tail pipe he found as a Didgeridoo. It worked. It also had come straight off of a car. "O those kiss-able lips" is probably not what Erin was thinking right about then. Jason's lips were black. |
Bone makes friends with the local cockatiel�"Hey let's see if it tries to grab my tongue ring!" �It did. (Bone didn't try that again) |
|
|
Kevin (who runs the Merchandise table) and his infamous dirty feet. |
Jason Beck is the most tribal of all the Madison Greeners, pictured here at Inside Out Soul festival in 2001. Smell ya later! |
