Blues @ the VFW

Writing from Tulsa, OK - here to record with dear friends Little Joe McLerran and his dad, Robbie Mac. Joe won the International Blues Challenge solo/duo competition in Memphis this year. Since then he has been busy playing blues festivals from Portland, OR to Milan, Italy (and a brief tour in CO).

When they invited me to be part of the next CD, I hopped on the first freight train to Tulsa. Things went great in the studio (Mi Casa Recording, the domain of Mike Peace) ... and then the venue we were booked to play at closed earlier this week.

But the stars are shining on us - we will play tonight (FRI) at the Tulsa VFW Uptown Lounge to warm up the grill for tomorrow's Barbeque Cook-Off. Come on down, y'all! The VFW has their own serious barbeque and Joe and the band have been working hard in the studio - it's high time we got down with the folks! Music will be cookin about 7pm...

FRI Aug 21, 7pm. Little Joe Blues
VFW 1109 E. Sixth Street Tulsa, OK 74120
