I'm pretty sure unless the locals in Woodstock spoke with very heavy Cajun French accents. Thank you for the kind words. I'm so glad I was able to get the Cajun Mardi Gras experience before everything went nuts.

I have no idea. The venue is named the Red Dragon Listening Room. It's a very unique place (in a good way). I hope to attend more shows there in the future.

I had a few more pics to share, but I can't figure out how to do so. I keep getting a message indicating I'm only allowed to share a certain amount of bytes. Oh, well. There have been a few highlights in an otherwise "meh" year. I'm very appreciative for them. And for everyone here. Hope everyone's enjoyed a wonderful, safe holiday.

Happy Thanksgiving to you, our fearless leader, and to everyone at Via Chicago! It's certainly been a trying year. Before all hell broke loose I managed to squeeze in a few concerts, including a Bottle Rockets/Robbie Fulks show at a very cool venue in Baton Rouge. Although the annual barbecue cookoff/festival benefitting pediatric brain cancer in which I participate didn't happen, we did meet for the plot draft. That meant free beer and a brewery tour which led to an interesting discovery. I was also fortunate enough to experience my first Cajun Mardi Gras with family. I had so much fun I orde

Hear, hear.

The people have spoken. .

I'm sure I'll fail to recall some but off the top of my head: Mavis Neko Case Courtney Barnett St. Vincent Rhiannon Giddens Loretta Lynn Caroline Rose

I don't have a lot of funds to spare at the moment, but I made small donations to the campaigns of Warnock and Ossoff. This Mississippi native (who grew up with Stacey Abrams and her sister Leslie, who's a federal judge) is very proud of Georgia.

Thank you kindly.

I can't think of a better birthday gift for my 46th (Nov. 5) than news of the election of our 46th president. I've been feeling equal heaps of joy and relief all day.

If Biden wins Georgia it would pretty much make up for my Braves collapsing again in the playoffs.

Extremely concerned at this point. It's looking like a possible repeat of 2016, which is nauseating.

In 1942 both Citizen Kane and The Maltese Falcon were Best Picture nominees. Neither won. Last night I watched the movie that beat out both to win the big prize.

Comfort is a great word to describe the album. After one listen it's right up there with Warm and Warmer for me.

Today's the ninth anniversary of R.E.M.'s retirement.

Just finished this excellent book tonight. Highly recommended for fans of Erik Larson or anyone interested in history (specifically World War II).
