Three in one

2/26/2017

Second time to play at the Stompin Grounds open mic. Met Bobbie (McKenzie?), a fiddle player, who was excellent. He and I managed an Austin rehearsal, and we played so well together that a girl named Zee asked afterward how long we'd been playing together. I laughed and told her, "You've seen our entire career!"

Had to pop by Rovers after the Stompin Ground. Once again, it was "hostless," but fortunately, somebody else stepped up to do it, so I only played a few songs, then went on my merry way to Twin Creeks, where Bobby and I played again.

Three open mics in one evening is too much for me. Must be a sign of old age.

Clyde's live CD recording

I thought Lynette & Lefty were the best at setting the stage, but then Douglas Clyde Martin put this scene together for Clyde's live CD recording at Twin Creeks Hall. Great set (on stage), great set (of music), and great fun for all.

Is it the third Sunday of the month? Yes! That means I'm hosting at the B.B. Rover's open mic again. Lotsa fun.

Lots of acts at the Four Bullets Brewery in Richardson yesterday. The Happy Hour Ukes (with Ashley) kicked off the show, followed by Bevvy, a solo guitarist. Next up was Thickety Creek, followed by more Happy Hour Ukes, and wrapping up with a reunion of sorts of Drinks on the House.

Austin Ukes invade Rattle Inn

A few times a year, the Austin Ukulele Society hosts a special uke-centric open mic at the Rattle Inn. They just seem to keep getting better.

Great acts all evening long! Helen and I performed "Let's Talk Dirty in Hawaiian" and my new song, "Destroy the Earth for Profit," both of which went over great.

BBR as Kaye Pasa Duo

2/15/2017

Kaye and I had a great night playing and singing at Rovers. I think it was our best performance as a duo so far. Too bad it happened in front of our smallest audience so far.

After our 7-9 gig, we drove to Twin Creeks Hall to catch the end of Lynette & Lefty's show there. They were fun as always, and it was a great way to end the evening.

Half of The Better Halves at BBR

2/12/2017

0 Comments

 
According to Jimmy Joe, his better half stayed home because she had sung her voice out earlier today at a regular nursing home gig. Apparently, cedar fever got to her.

She missed a great open mic at Rovers, including a few acts that followed me over from The Stomping Grounds, which now hosts a Sunday open mic from 4 to 7 nearby.

KPT at The Legacy again

Paul, Kaye and I performed at the Legacy again. We always enjoy playing there because the audience is so attentive and appreciative (in a non-monetary kind of way).

The second Thursday of the month is always my favorite Thursday thanks to the regular Austin Ukulele Society meeting. In honor of Valentine's Day this month, Bob chose the song "Love Hurts."
