I just got in from an hour of moonwatching with Brian Clough, where we counted 62 birds between 8:55pm and 10:25pm (we counted over six ten-minute periods between those two times). There were many birds calling overhead, but neither of us could get beyond "sparrow-like" and "warbler-like". No thrushes were heard (again, untrained ears could be to blame).
Activity is still hot and heavy in the NE and Mid-Atlantic... so get out there if you've got the time/motivation!
