Dallas is polishing up his chops, sittin in with The Flat Five Blues Band. And keepin it simple. I know some of you know him well, or a little. Nice chap, too. We do this every week,(for free). And for that very reason. You simply never know when the call will come in, for a gig, eh? Free is good. We do pretty good on tips. That is, if that is what you're looking for. Stan " The Man" (Strat) Downtown Del (bass) James "Shuffle King" Ganeko (drums) We just got a gig for December 15th, (if we're all still around), to have some fun with Chicago's own, Liz Mandeville. Dig it. She'll be in town, with her sweetheaart, for an AIDS/HIV marathon. Nice to have her come by OnStage and strut her stuff. And boy does have "it". We don't see hardly any mainlander's round here much. Hey! Joe Bonamasa is coming in October...THAT'S gonna be cooool. And there were rumours Rod and Honey might show up someday, too. Oh well, when it happens, it'll happen. It's a tough haul out here.
