Columns: Poor Sunday turnout for great band; more on Buster B. Jones
Here's this week's column, about a rough Sunday night for a great band. We've already got a good conversation going about this topic at http://blogs.roanoke.com/rtblogs/cutnscratch/2009/02/23/question-of-the-week-deadest-show-ever/, so jump over there and tell us about killer shows that didn't get the audience they deserved.
Here's another column, in which I revisit my news obit of phenomenal fingerpicking guitarist Buster B. Jones. I meant to post this link sooner, but other work just ate up my time.
It was a busy week. I sold my Willie tickets to go to Dark Star Orchestra. Great show, but smaller crowd than last year. Having two good bands in town on one night was unfortunate. Looking forward to the Dead in Greensboro in April and Dan Tyminski at the Jefferson Center in March.
