Lotta weather this past week, but it didn’t freeze, didn’t flood and nothing important fell over. Thought about getting a hair cut, but I filled up the tank instead and fed the cat a few times. Life is good. See you tomorrow, some time around porch o’clock.

Saturday Matinee – Alastair Greene, Eric Johanson & Katarina Pejak; Nikki Hill Band, Anthony Rosano & The Conqueroos, and Cam Cole
Ruf’s Blues Caravan 2024 featured Alastair Greene, Eric Johanson & Katarina Pejak.
Nikki Hill Band:
“If Tina Turner and Little Richard had a daughter and raised her with the help of uncles James Brown and Chuck Berry, she’d be like Nikki Hill.”
— Minneapolis Star Tribune
Anthony Rosano & The Conqueroos mixes Delta blues, NOLA second line funk and 60’s jams with classic rock. No self-indulgent wheedly-wheedly solos with these guys.
Cam Cole, busker, bluesman, rocker, recording artist, and the most impressive one-man band you will ever see.
Looks like the west coast is in for rain, the midwest is in for winter, and the porch has a roof with a live weather watch. See you tomorrow, rain, mud, sleet or snow.
