What better way to spend a holiday weekend than two Cocktail Drum gigs. For once, I can't wait to load in and out! It's a busy weekend and I get to leave the big, heavy kit at home. Hopefully I'll be bringing out the Club Jordans more often as summer gig season heats up.

6-9 pm
This will be my first time using the cocktail rig with this blues band. We'll be outside in the beer garden at Tyranena - if you're around Milwaukee or Madison, come out & enjoy some of their excellent microbrews while you take in the "cocktail blues". The Brew Pub is smoke-free, too, if Wisconsin spring weather prevails.

223 N. Water St.

11am - 2pm
Our guitar/bass/drums trio plays a lighter variety of the blues for your Sunday brunching enjoyment. The cocktail setup always goes along on this gig.
Swing by the Third Ward for some gourmet food with live blues. We throw in some jazz and a little bossa, too. Weather permitting, we will be out on the river.
