[tangledupinblue]

Hey Jazzy, we are doing Garage A Trois for sure but it is on a Wednesday. Jude is off on Wednesdays so that works well for us.
That is going to be a great one!
Will most likely go to Kimock and George as well.

[NYMAMA]

Anyone planning on going to see JohnCleary and the Absolute Monster Gentelmen on Sept. 15 at The Lions Den?

[mangoon]

Not going to miss the Tab show at the Lions Den. The place is not very immpressive to look at, but the sound is great, the place is pretty wide open, and the bartenders are prety attentive so its easy to get a cocktail when crowded.

[Freakwinox]

Believe the Grace Potter date is an opener for Govt Mule.

Sonny Landreth headlines the Knowlton (NJ) River Fest this Friday at 10 pm. Knowlton is just off Rt 80 near the Delaware River. $10.

Anyone planning on going to see JohnCleary and the Absolute Monster Gentelmen on Sept. 15 at The Lions Den?

[linza22]

[NYMAMA]

We actually plan on doing that show as well.

AW RIGHT we may finally meet! We plan on going to Maras(of Crawfish Fest fame) for diner if you care to join us

Linz I guess you would fly into JFK or Laguardia.

[steeleye]

I am considering Sonny at the Knowlton festival this Friday. Anyone else?

[jazzykeb]

I'm going to be up in Cape Cod this weekend, or else I would be there. If you go, get there early enough for Gandalf Murphy, just before Sonny. They are a lot of fun....hard to describe...self described as "hill billy Floyd". Check them out....great guitarist.

Yep -- I got to hear her at Old Point Bar along with the Campbell Brothers and a little bit at Ingrids. Very impressed with her voice.

Also, she visited my MySpace and wished me Happy Birthday and commented on my choice of John Boutte as music -- how cool is that! :cool:

Anyone planning on going to see JohnCleary and the Absolute Monster Gentelmen on Sept. 15 at The Lions Den?

Jordan;
Scrapomatic is also opening for Rebirth at Highline.

[Freakwinox]

Heard that the Lion's Den is fully renovated...including new floor, stage, bar, and bathrooms. Haven't seen it first-hand yet.

Also a new music venue opening on 56th St - Terminal 5 - run by the same folks as Bowery Ballroom and Mercury Lounge. Supposedly will hold 3000. Was formerly a dance club. Luv it when that happens.

TONIGHT, FREE

The Dixie Hummingbirds (fantastic gospel) and Sleepy LaBeef's Rip Roarin' Jumpin' Jamboree w/Charlie Gracie, Dale Hawkins, Roy Head and Larry Johnson.
WOO HOO!!!

I'm particularly interested in Charlie Gracie, looked at his web sight and he has a load admirers......George Harrison, McCartney, Van Morrison, Graham Nash

Venue Information
Damrosch Park
Southwest corner of the Lincoln Center Plaza (62nd Street near Amsterdam Avenue)
24th Annual Roots of American Music Festival

Saturday, August 18, 2007 7:00 PM
Damrosch Park Bandshell
Lincoln Center Out of Doors
FREE and open to the public!


A program that illustrates the influence of gospel music on country, rockabilly, and rock n’ roll.

It was the 1960s generation that rediscovered gospel harmonies through groups like The Dixie Hummingbirds;

One of the founding fathers of rockabilly, Sleepy LaBeef, leads a rare coming together of early rockabilly/rock n’roll/blues performers.

Rocker Charlie Gracie topped the charts in the U.S. and Great Britain with his smash “Butterfly” in 1957. Fifty years later, with a successful recording and performing career, he’s still rolling.

Taking the music world by storm a half century ago, the “Rock and Roll Tornado,” Dale Hawkins, is still raising a stir with his rockabilly style.

One of the most versatile R&B/rock entertainers of the 1960s, Roy Head proved he was a music chameleon when he started singing soulful country in the mid-1970s.

With his expressive voice and his “Stride Guitar” style (a two-finger pick style using thumb and first finger), blues man Larry Johnson is at his best when he’s playing live, acoustic blues.
