Drew's Odds and Sods: Saturday Night Videos

As I was on my way off to to attended my girlfriend's youngest daughter's graduation party in Elkhorn, I found myself listening to Back Door Slam's first album, Roll Away. As I was explaining my girlfriend about what a phenomenal guitar player Davy Knowles was, I finding myself molding into that blues/jam band frame of mind. Yet, I wanted to do Davy Knowles justice with his live music.

ow, I don't make any Second Door Slam live materiel in my collection, just remembrance of beholding him in concert back in the summer of '09 at Summerfest.

After I returned home, I dug through YouTube on a look for some excellent live Knowles. Guess what I launch? The very point I saw at Summerfest almost two days ago! Reeling back memories and getting stoked here, I was totally amazed to even Find a picture that I've been to. As I was watching the video, I noticed whomever was recording this point was seated behind me and off to the right. (We were in the first row on the left) So, I didn't myself nor my company in the vid, yet I did some familiar faces.

We DID get to meet Davy Knowles and his manager after show, thanks to our friend, Joe Heuer, the Rock and Roll Guru. Davy Knowles seems like a very modest young kid, unaffected by his recent fame. Really pleasant to flow with. My comrade and I were thought of staying to see Buddy Guy, who playing after wards, but we had to provide early to get an early flight to California.



On the way home, I was in the humour for some Rolling Stones. This time, something off their mysterious classic Exile on Main Street. The Stone's most druggist and creative effort ever! Recorded in a dirty basement in France and smacked up on heroin, the Stones pulled off an album that was considered among the better in stone and roll per say.



As I was sifting through videos, I came across a local band I used to get into back in the '90's-Zoot Suit Boogie. Their guitarist Robert Allen Jr, held me captivate with his impressive hollowed bodied Eliphone guitar flowing through a tiny Fender amp playing the blues....
