Big'uns This Week

There will be a couple of Big’uns appearances this week in NW AR, beginning on Thursday night, when a pared-down version of the band, Slim Big’uns, plays on the deck at Herman’s from 7:00-10:00. This group is an “unplugged” combo, consisting of the hardest working man in northwest Arkansas show business, Darren Ray, along with Sterling and Ed, all on acoustic guitars and vocals. It’s a lot of the music people give the big tips to hear, and then some…other stuff. Wow. Can’t you feel the electricity in the air already? I can. Come on out. It’ll be fun. It’s a great venue, quite possibly the most perfect place in the whole world to spend a Thursday night. And you can get a big ole slag of red meat, cooked as you like it. Or crackers and salsa if you're a vegetarian.


Then on Friday, the band returns to one of our favorite spots, the garden at George’s, for happy hour (or as we like to think of it, adult hour), from 6-8. George’s has a great sound system, good sound guys, and it’s an opportunity to hear the band play some of the stuff we don’t play at other gigs. Plus Friday afternoon at George's almost always presents a dazzling display of dancing diversity. Oh the humanity! All that for only a two buck (I think) cover.

Come on out, and you might just find your picture here.
