This weekend's events in Charleston
It's Kathleen again, and these the weekend's events in Charleston.
Jeff Norwood will be playing this afternoon, Thursday, May 28, at the Mad River Grille, starting at 4pm.
Friday, May 29th, is full of activity, in any part of town. A Dough Re Mi features Campfield at 9:30pm, with a $5 cover.
Dan Wright, our Jam Master, will be playing at Abe's Oyster House in an acoustic duo with Tim Hodson.
Skye Paige will be on the Bridge 105.5 on Friday afternoon, May 29th, with Smoky Weiner. That night, she will be performing in another project, Bizarro Burlesque, with the HellBlinki Sextet at the Tin Roof, at 9pm.
In my last post, I mentioned Shrimp City Slim has a Blues n' BBQ cruise on the Carolina Belle, with food provided by HomeTeam BBQ, tonight as well. The boat casts off around 6:30pm.
Lastly, Jeff Norwood is playing at the Blind Tiger Pub, starting at 7:30pm. Blind Tiger is on Broad Street, between where East Bay and Meeting intersect.
On Saturday, May 30th, Shrimp City Slim reunites with Blue Light Special for the first time in 20 years. The cover for that show is $15, it starts at 8pm and runs until 11. Click the following link to go to the Piccolo site for tickets.
That same night, Jojo Wall will be performing solo at the Blind Tiger Pub, the show starts at 7:30. Jeff Norwood is playing at the Dockside Lounge on Edisto Beach, starting at 9pm.
On Sunday, May 31, as part Mudcat n' Mama, Skye will be performing with Mudcat at Bowen's Island. Admission is $15, the show runs 4-7pm. For tickets, click Piccolo Spoleto, go to the Gailliard Box office, or pay the day of the show at Bowens.
Looking into next week, there is our Jam on Tuesday, the Bowens jam Wednesday, and the TWS Jam in Summerville on Thursday. Also on Thursday, June 4th, Dan will be playing with Tim Hodson at Henry's.
On a sidenote, I stumbled on an awesome web application called groover, spelled phonetically: gruvr, with an umlaut (aka "those dots") over the u. If you go there, the site can tell you shows happening in your town, superimposed on a map. Type in a band name in the user field, it can tell you when, and where, a few clicks will show you how to get there.
Until next time, whatever you do this weekend, have fun and be safe...

Upcoming Shows - 17 October 2008
Got another great week of music ahead.
Kicking things off on Friday night is Hitman at A Dough Re Mi. If you haven't seen Hitman before, then you are missing one of the best blues guitar players in the Southeast. Think Hendrix, Think Clapton, Think Johnson, and roll them all up into one dynamo and you have Hitman.
Then on Saturday, the Lowcountry Blues Club songwriting competition takes place at A Dough Re Mi. If you haven't signed up already, please get in touch with Tommy Thunderfoot (www.tommythunderfoot.net) and let him know that you to compete. The winners this week will play a paid gig next week at A Dough Re Mi.
Also this weekend is Rockoberfest at Awendaw Green on Saturday and Sunday. Among the few dozen acts scheduled to play, at least three acts that are blues club veterans will be taking the festival by storm - Allnightkungfu, Jeff Norwood, and Slanguage.
In addition, if you just happen to be in Macau, China this weekend, stop by and say hi to Shrimp City Slim at the MacauSoul.
Then next week, the Lowcountry Blues Club has their weekly meeting and jam at A Dough Re Mi on Tuesday. Always a good time and some of the best music in the states is played every Tuesday on the Big Slice - aka the A Dough Re Mi stage.

Upcoming Shows - 10 October 2008
We've got another great week of music lined up around the lowcountry, around the state, and even around the world.
Kicking things off locally is the Wyatt Garey Band at A Dough Re Mi on Friday. Wyatt is one the great younger musicians that we have playing with us on Tuesday nights and his band has toured all up and down the East Coast. In addition to the blues stylings that we know Wyatt for, he and his father are well respected musicians in the Gospel community and toured extensively in that area as well.
Also on Friday, our fearless band leader, Tommy Thunderfoot, will be taking his amazing bad, The Accelerators to Sumter, SC. Last time they played there, they packed the house with a few hundred fans. Needless to say, our best kept secret is finally getting out and Tommy and the band will be in great demand in the years to come. Just so I show proper love to our members, the Accelerators lineup also includes other Lowcountry Blues Club jam faithfuls: Dave Jones on Bass, Stone Cold Sarah Cole on guitar, and Sammy Derrick on drums.
And just because we're who we are, we'd thought we let you know that Shrimp City Slim will be playing the MacauSoul festival in Macaue, China, tonight, and all through the weekend and next week too. So if you just happen to be in that part of the world, stop and say hi to Shrimp. And I have to admit, I think its very cool that he's playing internationally. Shrimp, show our Asian friends how we deliver blues and soul from the Lowcountry.
The bad news is that on Saturday, the Lowcountry Blues Club was planning to have a preliminary round of a Pro-Am songwriting competition. Well, we just didn't get enough participants to sign up, so we're going to have to council this round. We're still looking to have a second round on October 18th and the winner will playing a paid gig on October 25th. All the shows are scheduled to be at A Dough Re Mi.
The good news is that Skye Paige will be playing a solo acoustic set at A Dough Re Mi on Saturday night instead of the songwriting competition.
Last, but not least, Cole Train will be playing at A Dough Re Mi on Sunday for a special early all ages show. If you're not in the loop, Cole Train is made up of several of the Lowcountry Blues Club's younger members: Stone Cold Sarah Cole, Nate Merli, and Tanner Cooper. They've recently opened for Tommy Thunderfoot & The Accelerators and Scott Holt. In addition, they've played the Music Farm and the Women in Blues Festival up in Wilmington. This young band is on the move.
But wait!!!!
That's not all...
The Cole Train show is actually going to be a celebration of Stone Cold Sarah Cole's 16th birthday. So you know the band is going to be delivering the goods at this show, and you don't want to miss it.
So here's the recap of the weekend shows.
And he's what's coming up this week:
