Hi Friends,

This month, we're going back to the beginning — sort of.

Before Barry officially hit the road on the “Clicker Tour”, in support of the Summer of '78 album, he did what he often did before a major run: a rehearsal concert. A chance to work through the lights, the staging, and new songs. A room to figure things out before the world was watching.

Those shows had a way of becoming something special.

This one is no exception. We're releasing this concert in two parts — Act 1 this month, Act 2 next month. Act 1 includes four songs from Barry's very first album — material from the period he calls "Baby Barry," when he was still finding his footing as a performer. Hearing those songs delivered by the Barry of 1997, confident and in full command of the room, shows just how far he'd come.

Only a few hundred people were in that room. Now you can be too.

Enjoy,
