Folsom St’s web site (not online right now for some reason) makes it look larger and snazzier than it is, but it’s still a decent place. The good: The staff is friendly. The fare isn’t bad. Some big, comfy looking chairs. The large windows are behind the stage so they don’t make the music sound like it’s in a bathroom. The bad: The table was sticky. The stage is tiny, without enough room for a whole band. There was almost nobody there on a Friday night. It felt more like late Tuesday afternoon.
Jon Sousa’s guitar and banjo playing was excellent as always. He played Portuguese, Hungarian, and Irish (and probably other peoples’) folk songs and lullabies. I could have done with some vocals, though.
