Little belated post here. I took my son Will, who’s developing into a good guitar player (he and a bunch of guys have a band they’re calling Young’uns), for his first visit to New York. If you’re ever there on Monday night, catch Les Paul at his regular gig at Iridium. At 90 years old, he has a great band, still plays some really interesting stuff and he’s just as funny as hell.
Friday before we left, Big’uns played our happy hour gig at George’s. As I’ve mentioned here before, Brian Crowne, George’s proprietor has done a great job of building the consummate live music venue. They have an excellent sound system and good sound guys. They’re bringing in some class touring acts from around the country. Many of us recently got to see one of our favorites there, Tower of Power, without a doubt the tightest R&B ensemble in the world today.
We’re looking forward to playing again at George’s on Saturday, September 10, after the Arkansas-Vanderbilt football game, when we’ll be in the front room.
