Performance Observatory - Ethnography of a Touring Musician: Jeffrey Gaines

This was an effort to see if the changes to his performances were because he was somehow different in his performances, if I was different as a fan/audience member, or if there was a difference in seeing him perform outside of our home area of Philadelphia.
