0 Blues you ough’ta know with Big Charlie: T-Bone Walker

a.k.a. Oak Cliff T-Bone

T-Bone walker is the reason the Blues is what it is today. Legend has it he was the first ever blues performer to use an electric guitar. He roamed the streets of dallas at age 15 opening for national acts and String bands. By the time he was in his twenties he was in Los Angeles headlinging on Central Avenue.

I know you’ve heard this one

Inspiring a generation of Bluesmen

Walker was the childhood hero of many many musicians. B.B. King bought his first electric after he heard “Stormy Monday”, and where do you think Jimi Hendrix learned to play with his teeth? Chuck Berry always listed T-Bone and bandleader Louis Jordan as his first influences.

Albert Collins and Jimmy Vaughn (Stevie’s older brother) talk about T-Bone’s effect on the Texas Blues

Wednesday in Austin at the Nomad Bar was amazing, thanks to everyone who came out and danced to our diddys and showed support.

Tonight we’ve got ourselves a five band bill crazy ass Friday Night Throwdown with Webbed, Lindby, and Like Burning Glass. It should be an epic night in Fort Worth at the Connection, located at 3177-c Alta Mere Drive. Things will be kicking off at about 8 so be sure to not lollygag and get your booty down there.

In case you didn’t catch it: The Connection 3177-c Alta Mere Drive, Fort Worth TX

As a sidenote, The Mitchells, (Wayne’s fam) has been more than kind enough to let us hooligans stay with them. Since we arrived we have all taken turns on the go-kart. Bootsy’s turn was a touch more eventful as he was not able to avoid a cow pattie and got splattered by dung. Turns out getting poop on your face is funny to everyone else, and Dane learned that the hard way. Here’s a picture of him cleaning up.

Til next time fam

PS- Now we’re even Bootsy

Hello! As I type these words, the caravan is barrelling towards Austin (ah technology!). Last night at SuperHappyFunLand was a lot of fun, makes sense since they have a super happy land with which to encapsulate said fun in Houston. Many thanks to those who came out and jammed with us. We had a great time and we hope to come back real real soon.

If you’re in Austin, check us out at the Nomad Bar on Wednesday, (you may even catch us sooner if you hang out on Sixth Street at the right time tonight) til then be well y’all!

Man, were those some good times.

And speaking of time, it appears spring break is a mere hours away – I can feel the itchy restlessness brewing on the college campuses – just make sure you’re not headed to Acapulco, ’cause my MGMT teacher says their cutting heads off like crazy over there.

And so, another Friday is upon us. Some good shows to check out:

Noah’s Pick – Booty Trove, New Grass & Revivalists – Tipitina’s – 10pm

Others: Smiley w/ a Knife – Cafe Prytania – 10pm

Blue Party – Republic – 10pm

Sun Hotel – Here Today Gone Tomorrow Thrift Store (Baton Rouge) 8pm

Also, Sun Hotel is headed off for their spring break tour, follow them here: http://www.sunhotelsounds.com/

Well, it’s noon now in New Orleans – in a couple of hours, I’ll have a daiquiri in hand…

Wanna join me?

Last but not least, check out this sweet post our friends Holy Ghost Tent Revival did on SXSW & their journey to New Orleans (whick includes a funny moment when Bill Murray throws their drummer into a trashcan:

SXSW was a huge success! We 2nd lined all up and down 6th street all weekend – played a slammin’ showcase at the Agave Thursday night – and managed to busk enough cash to get back home (thanks to Best Buy for the per diem too!). The Austin Statesmen did a great video featurette on the whole occasion. Check it out here:

Yessir!!! Next up: Greensboro, NC band Holy Tent Ghost Revival will be joining Dirty Bourbon & New Grass at Cafe Prytania this Tuesday (March 23rd) at 9pm! Check the facebook event here.

Rollin’ down that river. Yessir indeed.

After driving all through the night we awoke to a beautiful morning in Austin. After loading in at Agave Bar (512 Sixth Street if you find yourself attending SXSW and you’re looking for something to do at 8 tonight. But really you should come at 6 because 27 Lights go on then, followed by New Grass Country Club) we started wandering. Our adventure took us to a place called Mi Casa where we were enticed by free tamales. These free tamales led us to the music of Suzanna Choffel, and just as quickly were made fans of the music of Suzanna Choffel. Right now we are resting by the river enjoying the sunshine.

More updates as they are deemed necessary
