r.l. burnside / the bluebird
crap. primitive electric country bluesman r.l. burnside checked out in a memphis hospital room on september 1st. he was 79. thanks to my dutch bro tony slug for sharing this sad news.
on a more positive note, larry harrison sez that robert ealey's new bluebird night club at horne and wellesley here in the fort is set to reopen this weekend. i was planning to go see sumter bruton today anyhow, but now i definitely will.
UPDATE: sumter said that the main guy behind the new bluebird is a former fort worthian now living in tennessee. apparently he's booking mainly memphis bands for the first few shows. improvements to the physical plant supposedly include central air and heat (!!!) and an expanded men's room (which now occupies the former kitchen space). we'll see what we'll see.
