I Have Seen The Gates Of Heaven !

1315 Congress St. is indeed Paradise ! I have been to Austin, and aside from New Orleans no place (I've been) comes close ! After seeing Alejandro Escovedo and Jon Dee Graham on back to back nights at The Continental Club nothing here on earth can be the same again !

...and if you think the '60/'70's are dead - just go to Gruene Hall in New Braunfels, Tx [where we saw another of my favorite bands The Gourds !] . It ALL comes together there [I wrote this short poetic observation down while on the premises...]

Bikers, hippies, and brides to be, Hardwood, neon, boots and beachwear / dancing to surrealist fruit namesakes and beerbottle bounty





I am SO grateful to all the Texans for their hospitality and to our incomparable hostess Donna for EVERYTHING - and of course my spouse for putting up with me always - and to SG for bringing all the pieces together. One of my BEST experiences EVER !

More details soon...
