Sad News

On Friday, Oct 21 at 6:15pm, Pat Quinn of the Unreal Band died of liver failure.

Pat has been mentioned on this Blog several times; he was a musical cohort, Telegraph Avenue's Santa Claus, and a very dear friend.

He will be sorely missed.

Portland days

On Wednesday Night, I played at the Melody Ballroom for the Cascade Blues Association's monthly meeting; a great old hall. I opened the ceremonies; the Inner City Bluez Band played the later set, and they busted the joint up.

Sunday Night, I'll be back at the Mock Crest Tavern, 3435 N. Lombard St. Portland, Oregon 97217 - show starts at 8 pm.


I'll also be back at SLABTOWN, 16 NW Marshall, on Thursday October 19 and Thursday October 26 to host the Open Mic - so grab an instrument or just bring your voice on down and have a great time - signup starts at 8 pm.
