As a live music fan in general - and Blues in particular - I am looking forward to the Piccolo Early Bird Blues show starring OLD CROW downtown today 4-7pm. The venue is the Mad River Bar & Grille at 32 N. Market.

This former church building - just off East Bay - is known as a High Energy Sports Pub/Tavern with 23 hi-def tvs but it also has become a mecca for Blues music since Cumberland’s closed, according to Gary Erwin, producer of our annual 10-day Blues Bash. Hey, Gary knows his music venues.

OLD CROW, a trio from North Carolina, presents spirited Delta Blues, Ragtime and Old Timey Bluegrass. If you’ve enjoyed The Wiyos or our local musicmakers The V-Tones, you should have a rollicking good time today at Mad River.

Blues when the sun is shining. Yikes.
