Music Report for Mar. 21, 2005

Well, it's been a quiet week at Lake Wobegon... no, wait, that's a different report.

First, my congratulations to Kid Brothers, an excellent Atlanta corporate band, on the occasion of their 20th Anniversary. The official date was last Saturday, and in celebration they put on an excellent rare public appearance at Poor Richard's in Norcross. The music was great, the house was packed and responsive. Videos and a slide show between sets covered the years of world travels. I had the honor of playing a couple songs with them too. Best wishes for your next 20 years, guys!

Sunday night at the North End Pub & Grill was fun too. How could it not be with Greg High, Andrew Black, Tommy Vickery, Keith Barnhart, Mike Hinton, Brad Jeter and other great players? This time we wound up doing fun old covers from Zep, Sabbath, Edgar Winter, Steely Dan and more. I highly recommend the Sunday jams at the North End, directions will be included later in this message.

TONIGHT (3/21) I will be filling in with Larry Griffith, Jon Schwenke and Ricky Fargo at the Monday jams at Crystal's in Marietta. That's a great crew that always makes great music. I also play with them regularly at Kennesaw Billiards on Wednesday nights (listed below).
