empire thursdays
On a completely random note, I stopped in for a little Thrusday evening in the lounge with Bill Pile and friends. It was a fun little chill night with good conversation and a little dancing around, here and there.
d returns to the jam
The Saturday Open Jam has been missing from our agenda for quite some time now. It is one the best ways to burn up a Saturday afternoon in Kansas City, listening to some of the best rock and blues musician in town. This particular occasion featured the return of a longtime resident of the event who had been off the roster for more than year following multiple personal crises, one of which nearly ended his ability to perform at all. Taking his spot behind the drums once again for a couple of tunes, "D" picked up right where he left off, keeping cadence as if nothing had ever happened. There were tears among some of the crowd that were closer to him, understanding the extent of his dilemma. After playing, he admitted stumbling a few times, but everything sounded great from our side of the stage and we look forward to seeing him play again more often.
