Seattle, WA: Musicquarium Lounge at The Triple Door

In three full-band appearances at the MQ thus far this year we've had the fourth wall broken rather demonstrably, fended off a would-be pinch-hit drummer, and now been flashed.  And now that we've accepted a once-a-month residency here, who knows what else will follow?

Seattle, WA: Slim's Last Chance (Bushwick Book Club - Lonesome Dove)

I've wondered how an outdoor Bushwick show would go, given the importance of words at these events contrasted with the potential for sound to dissipate into the great wide open, but then you couldn't pick a better environment for Lonesome Dove than Slim's, either.  Turns out it works fine.

Glad to offer a little born-at-the-wrong-time cowboy waltz, join Nancy K. Dillon as part of her cowboy-/railway-rap work crew, and coordinate this show's audience quiz: cattle breed or marijuana strain?  Jamaica Red, anyone...?
