Muskblog: the sad, pathetic truth

This is my favourite style and one I’ve been trying to approximate a lot over the last year or so. R. L. Burnside was a big discovery for me. Seeing him as well as JJ Cale and Bruce Cockburn prompted me to ditch the pic for good.

So last night I headed to the Biltmore early and alone. I didn’t take a picture of the tour van with the Texas plates but it was pretty easy to tell who’s it was. Austin Texas’s own, though all the members were born and raised in Canada, but Grady had returned to town, [...]

The show started late, Scott told me there was an accident on the freeway plus of course the lovely boarder guards to deal with. [...]

I hadn’t intended to add to my blog again so soon, but given all the crap on my blog already I figured I’d make one more post for people to ignore.
