EASY are doing a show tonight down at what I'd call a temporary bar - they are calling it an \"al fresco arts and music garden\". First set at 5pm, second set at 7:30pm, free entry.<\/p>\n

Then I triple booked myself somehow and got 2 gigs in one day, plus I'm gonna try checkout soul legend Sharon Jones in between the two gigs. Lets talk about Sharon for a bit. She is one of the wickest black soul singers of the past 20 years. They rocked it super hard down at WOMAD back in 2009, and its a pity this pic doesn't quite have a shot of the drummer, but checkout the bassplayer he looks classic. Sharon too is looking mean as. Anyhow, looking forward to seeing that.<\/p>\n

I've popped some good upcoming shows into the gig list: Mos Def and Aloe Blacc in Jan, Splore City, and then in April: The Funky Meters (yes some of the founding members of The Meters are coming to do a show).<\/p>\n
