I had never been to the Sugarfactory before. It&#8217;s a cute little club venue just across the street from Melkweg. For a laid-back, folk-y afternoon show, there were small tables and chairs on the floor in front of the stage. I guess there were around a hundred people there. We got something to drink, and tucked ourselves away near the stairs in the back right corner.<\/p>\n<p>First Paul Freeman came on for half an hour, then Glen Phillips did half an hour. Then after a break they both came on stage, and traded songs for another hour or so before finishing with a once-rehearsed duet of the Traveling Wilburys &#8220;Handle With Care&#8221;. It was a sweet, relaxed, neat little gig.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sunpig.com\/martin\/images\/2015\/paul-freeman-sugar-factory.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"575\" alt=\"Paul Freeman at Sugarfactory\" class \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Paul Freeman at Sugarfactory<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sunpig.com\/martin\/images\/2015\/glen-phillips-sugarfactory.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" alt=\"Glen Phillips at Sugarfactory\" class \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Glen Phillips at Sugarfactory<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At very short notice I got tickets for Glen Phillips and Paul Freeman.
