I'm also a big fan of the regular gigs you can count on like Cornbread Harris at Schooner's on Sundays or Cole Diamond at White Squirrel on the second Wednesday of the month

actually, I'm a fan of almost anything that happens at those two joints ☺️

Lead Belly tribute at the Cedar and then Murder City Devils at Fine Line. both pretty amazing, each in their own ways!
