Good find. I may have to go two nights. The Les Paul one definitely.

EDIT: Looks like I'll go the Sunday and Monday to catch both different shows. The question is both shows the Les Paul night or just one and also the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra who I've also been trying to see for years.

wow, that sucks... Could it be he's heading to the wrong venue? Maybe Tommy should focus more on a place where Bluegrass is more mainstream. Seems like this is something that'd work well in Nashville. A Jazz Club though? I dunno... The other thing is, his album isn't out, so why would people buy tickets to this unless they're expecting Blue Collar Man? Maybe the ticket buyers and promoters are confused about what they're actually selling here.

Tommy- release your album. Promote it to death on radio, etc. THEN do the live shows. OR, just show up at unexpected places, bring your BG band and do surprise gigs. Build a buzz...

#1 you can NOT believe Froy at all. His mind is warped. He even believes that Cutler should have been the Super Bowl MVP even though the Bears LOST to Pittsburgh in the Super Bowl.
#2 he may be taking his wife to prom.
#3 what in the hell is bluegrass music? Is it like polka or country line dancing??

Be careful telling Tommy to "Build a buzz..", he may get the wrong idea. 8)

Um ... the Bears lost to the Packers and didn't even make it to the Super Bowl. :lol: :? So, that begs the question, whose "mind is warped"? :wink:
