Photos (iPhone) from the Howie Day concert at the Hobart Art Theatre on Sat. Nov 22, 2025 in Hobart, Indiana. Great show by an incredibly talented singer/songwriter. To say that I leave his shows inspired is an understatement.

I've been listening to Howie and playing his music since 2002 during my college days at Indiana University. Rose and I 'collided' with him after the show behind the theater briefly where we chatted about his performance, music, having kids, being in our 40s, reverb pedals, and more. We ended the night with a group hug and well wishes and it couldn't have been a more perfect evening. Thanks Howie - see you in Chicago.
