The Jelly Doughnuts- The Baltic Room, Seattle, October 14, 2000

by Neil Sherk


Mark Lanegan, Mike Johnson, and Ben Shepherd played at the Baltic Room last night (billed as The Jelly Doughnuts). It turned out to be an early show: Mike began his solo set at 7:30, and after a break, he came back with Mark and Ben at 9. It was a shorter show than the previous night, but every bit as enjoyable. I don't remember exactly what they played, but there was one song they hadn't played Friday, which was listed as Deep Purple. Mark chain-smoked the whole time, and there was less chatter and clowning around than the night before. But they sounded great, and it was nice to see them in a small place.
