Per usual, it might be a good idea to point your browser back to this blog post now and then because we're expecting an update or three but, at the moment, here's how things are shaping up.
SUNDAY NIGHT / MONDAY MORNING:
We needed a toliet. Yes we needed a toliet because a rather eccentric friend of ours, the late Screamin' Jay Hawkins, wanted one to use as part of his performance of "Constipation Blues" at the 13th Chicago Blues Festival. No, we didn't go to a plumbing store. The place we went to was Fantasy Costumes. All these years later, they're still going strong and, as Halloween approaches, they're even open in the wee hours of the morning. So, tonight we'll check in with Store Manager, Jason Tobias, for a sample of some of this years most sought after Halloween goodies.

Our New Music Monday Magic Laser lands on "Shine," the second release from British singer/guitarist, Dani Wilde. This album is about more than blues, it's about a depth of talent, performance and feeling that makes you want to listen to it again and again and share it with your friends. So, we are.

For many years, as our Monday night segued into the wee hours of Tuesday morning, we'd check redhotred.com to see who our friend Les Paul had been jamming with at the Iridium Jazz Club, inNew York. Now and then Les would surprise us with a call after his show. Once again, tonight we'll take a few minutes and remember the amazing Les Paul and his legacy as we revisit part of an interview, a story, a laugh or, most importantly, his music and listen to "A Little More Les."
Don't forget, you can keep up with the latest Les Paul news and events by checking out the Les Paul Foundation website.
