Are you sure on that Entrain data??? It's not on their website.
Interesting side note...Sam sat in with a "fill-in band" at a club in New Bedford on Tuesday (Bullpen). It was him and Dan Swartz on a percussion kit with a bunch of other assorted shakers & such. Sam also brought his djembe. The band also had a 3-pc horn section, and I thought Sam would play a couple of songs on the Trombone, but it was a valve-trombone, and not a slide.
The 9 pc band included the 2 percussionists, 2 guitars, bass, drum kit, and 3-pc horn (Alto sax, trumpet, and valve-trombone). They were filling in for a Dead cover band (Pearly Baker) whose guitarist is in Greece for a few weeks. They did a handful of Dead tunes. It was the first time I ever heard Friend of the Devil, Shakedown Street, and a couple of others with a complete horn section!!! REALLY good stuff!!!
At one point, the horns walked off, followed by the guitars, and finally the bass. That left the drum kit, two percussionists (one on the congas and Sam on the djembe), and one of the guitarists grabbed a cowbell. They proceeded to do a straight percussion thing for about 10-15 minutes. Again...WAY COOL!!!

You going to see Creek or Entrain? I think I'll leave it up to Jerry to decided.
I will likely attend the Hyland Orchard show... But hell even that is up in da air... ( I've been beckoned to CT for emergeny computer repair that weekend - but will likely bail early Sunday and hit up the Orchard... )

Cool, like I said, I'll proabably let the kids decide which to go to, but I'd prefer Creek...if you can make it we should carpool.

Johnny Trama has been an integral part of the Boston music scene for many years having spent time with John Brown's Body, Entrain, Peter Prince, Toussaint and the China Band, as well as holding down a semi permanent spot at Matt Murphy's with Public House and the B3 Kings, among others.
Johnny's early influences include Jimmy Page, George Benson, Grant Green, Otis Redding, Mark Ford and many others - which is why it is hard to categorize his playing and song writing. You be the judge and experience it yourself!
Admission is free!
