Must see show Thursday

Hi There

I know we all are being festive and what not. But, I would be remiss to not mention that Grace Potter and the Nocturnals will be playing the Magic Bag on Thursday.

I first saw Grace at the Langerado Music Festival this past spring. I took them in while hanging out with members of Railroad Earth, their crew and mgmt. I was impressed with her energy. She can play a mean piano and guitar. I felt a bit of Janis Joplin in her, sans the booze and drugs.

I then saw Grace at Dunegrass. Upfront and in the flesh. I am telling you there were many converts that day.

Here is a link to a very recent show. www.archive.org/details/gpn2008-12-06.km184.flac16

Let's show support for her here in Ferndale

And Stayed tuned . . . . I am putting on a New Years Show in Pontiac with my Partner Ben Rosenzweig. Photos by up and coming photographer Drew Bender and a live audio visual extraganza that will blow your socks off. Just working out the final details with licenses and what not
