this monday at the hideout

By Robbie on June 20, 2010

Sorry I've been away for a bit. 2 kids out of school + 0 wife at home = infinitely distracted dad. Tomorrow night's show is a duo with Eric Noden. I've admired Eric's skill with country blues for many years before he was part of the fantastic group called the Sanctified Grumblers, since way back when we both taught at the Old Town School of Folk Music. From the number of successful Chicago musicians who play nasal twangy music, or who tilt their heads and grumble hoarsely when they speak, I'd say neither of us had a very widespread effect as pedagogues. Be that as it may, both of us are good at making a stringed instrument go doink in a sexy manner, and that's what we'll be doing at 7P Monday on harmonica, banjo, guitar, and banjo-guitar. See you there!
