I’ll be live on KPIG at 1:45 tomorrow (Saturday) with Gayle Lynn to promote our show at the Starry Plough later in the night. Please tune in on the radio or on the web to the HAM JAM. Gayle will do three or four songs and I’ll play a special, long distance dedication of “These Bars” in memory of my passed away parakeet Mr. Tweetfeather.

First, this Friday Cree, me and Jimmy Sweetwater debut our new group “The Mission Three” at the Red Devil lounge this Saturday, [Yes, Saturday] April 25. Jimmy adds some Levon Helms, I add some Dixieland, and Cree adds some blue eyed blues. We made an ep and it sounds real nice. We go on AT NINE PM SHARP, and we play one half hour exactly. Also playing (and, well, hell, this is the real meat of the whole deal) is 77 El Deora and Diego’s Umbrella. Now that is a show. Please come out for our world debut!

Sunday afternoon Misisipi Rider makes our debut at Thee Parkside Afternoon Roots Sundays. Just like the good ol’ Drifters days. We go on at 4:30 SHARP. They have to kick us out for a night show at seven, and there is another band, so we have to go on at 4:30. This show is FREE. The Country Squires/Starlene played it last Sunday, and the sound is really good in the place. Boom (the booker/sound guy) is really attentive, the bartender was real nice,  the patio was clean and peaceful and the food is good. They also have a Jim Beam/beer back special just for you! Please come see us, we are getting the songs down real nice! (I should mention that our friend Eric Reedy’s band the B Stars are playing later that night at Thee Parkside)
