Australian guitar slinger slider Dave Hole is living proof that there’s a Mississippi Delta somwhere in Oz.

So many things to pay attention to these days, and watching the fireworks of the internet go off in unpredictably absurd directions makes me grin. Tomorrow is a good day to do the porch thing, see you when the time is right.

Saturday Matinee – BluesBeaten Redshaw, Dave Hole & Ruf’s Blues Caravan

BluesBeaten Redshaw on cigar box banister rail & tea spoon diddley bow (via @bluesharp). Not a lot can be found about this BB Redshaw guy, other than he hails from Yorkshire, has been performing since he was 14, and drove a 1948 Fergusen tractor from northern England to Switzerland, playing gigs along the way.

Ruf’s Blues Caravan /Blues Got Soul revue brought together Si Cranstoun, Big Daddy Wilson and Vanessa Collier to perform Sam Cooke‘s classic righteously.

Don’t know about you, but these days are flying by for me. I must be doing something wrong, or maybe something right. Have a great weekend and we’ll trash talk whoever doesn’t show

Saturday Matinee – Big Daddy, Big Daddy and Big Daddy

Big Daddy‘s take on Springsteen’s “Dancing in the Dark” is pure awesome. Check out their mashup of the Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band – you’ll love it. You might even be able to find a clean download somewhere before it’s gone (hint hint nudge nudge).

Then there’s this Big Daddy I never heard of. Pure brilliance happens within the first 60 seconds. See how long you can stand it before you click on

this. The Big Bad Voodoo Daddy Mugs mug too much, but their music is retrohot.

Nice drivin’ acoustic blues by Big Daddy Wilson, live at the Bluesmoose Café 14 March 2012, featuring

Whoa Mama! There’s a long weekend coming up. Have a great one, and be back here tomorrow if only because we told you to.
