Everybody singin' like somebody else's body. And that's pretty spooky if you think about it. I like the shows where the guy... he's like 18 years and white and he's comin' up on stage before a 90 years old bluesman [pantomimes lurching onto stage, plays really old sounding blues, wails incomprehensibly]... And then the 90 years old bluesman comes on and says, 'OK man, whassup?' Everythin's gotten like kinda spaced if you think about it... - Jerry Ricks, Port Townsend 97

A night of Country Blues guitar at the Fabulous Jalopy Theatre in Red Hook Brooklyn, NY on July 23rd. Music starts at 8PM. You?ll hear music from:

Pat Conte - of the Otis Brothers and curator of the Secret Museum of Mankind


Ari Eisinger - ragtime and blues guitar legend


East River String Band - Country Blues from the 78RPM era


The Little Brothers - music from a time when GIANT BLUESMEN walked the earth


All for a measly 15 bucks!

Holy smokes what a lineup! Book your flights folks! This is a once in a lifetime worth the trip kinda deal! And who can resist Brooklyn in July?! The great Egyptian collection at the Brooklyn Museum, rare Albert Ryder paintings, Williamsburg, ground zero of twentysomething hipsterism , the botanic gardens (better Japanese garden than San Francisco's Golden Gate Park),
the best medium priced eateries in NY. Pizza to die for! My advice book a cheap flight, stay at a hotel at the airport (much, much cheaper), and spend the difference on taxis.

It's definitely looks like it's going to be a great evening of music. There are no excuses for being within striking distance and not making an effort to catch the show. Thanks for the heads up, Frankie!

P.S. Round up some spare mattresses and get ready to put 'em on the floor, Mr. O--the crash pad days may be comin' back to haunt ya!

Nice....

It's gonna be a time, even if we can't all crash at chez O'Muck.  There's gonna be some stuff you couldn't possibly expect, either.  You may SUSpect it, but there's no way anybody in their right mind would EXpect it.
