Wednesday is apparently the national night for musical residencies. In KC you’ve got Walkenhorst while in Austin you can regularly catch Jon Dee Graham AND James McMurtry. I’m lucky to live in Boston where most Wednesday’s I can catch Dennis Brennan, usually with special guest former J. Geils Band singer Peter Wolf joining in for a few electrifying songs late in the set.
So what’s the preferred Wednesday night gig in your town? Post your comment and you could win a signed copy of Bob Walkenhorst’s solo release The Beginner. A winner will be selected at random when the contest ends on Tuesday, 6/24/08 at midnight EST.**
As a special bonus, here are a few more live tracks from Twangville’s visit with Walkenhorst and friends.
